JTA Health, Safety & Noise Specialists

JTA’s Crystalline Silica Monitoring service helps businesses identify, monitor, and control exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust in workplaces. Crystalline silica is commonly found in engineered stone, concrete, bricks, tiles, sandstone, and other construction materials. When these materials are cut, drilled, or polished, fine silica dust can become airborne and may cause serious health conditions such as silicosis, lung cancer, and chronic respiratory diseases.

JTA provides workplace silica dust monitoring and occupational hygiene assessments to help businesses comply with Australian OHS/WHS regulations and exposure standards. Their experienced Occupational Hygienists conduct on-site air monitoring, specialised dust analysis, exposure assessments, and detailed reporting with practical control recommendations. Services include respirable dust testing, risk assessments, compliance guidance, and recommendations for control measures such as wet cutting, ventilation systems, and respiratory protection.

The company also helps organisations understand Australia’s engineered stone regulations and the 2024 Engineered Stone Prohibition, which introduced stricter controls on materials containing crystalline silica. JTA supports businesses with compliance strategies, worker exposure monitoring, and ongoing workplace health risk management programs.
