Safe Work Australia has published information to help employers determine whether a rapid antigen testing (RAT) program for their workers is a reasonably practicable control measure to manage the risks of COVID-19 at work.
It is important to remember that a RAT program is only one control measure for COVID-19 that may be required under the model WHS laws. PCBU’s/employers must continue to implement all other reasonably practicable control measures such as encouraging vaccination, physical distancing and good hygiene to minimise the risk of COVID-19.
You can always call us on the Business Advice Hotline on (08) 8300 0000 if you need to check anything.
