Penrith, NSW makes asbestos register data more accessible to workers with QR code signs

The city sought a digitized alternative to the paper-based asbestos register used across 340 council buildings. A QR code sign in each building provides immediate access to the types and locations of identified or potential asbestos. Council teams can immediately update information and produce reports on code access per location from a single resource. This system complies with state workplace safety laws and protects workers from asbestos exposure.
