Is New Zealand doing enough?

Have your say on asbestos awareness, supervisor capability and how the industry regulator could provide better support.

Why NZAAG is asking

Better decisions begin with honest industry evidence.

NZAAG wants to understand the experience of those working with asbestos risk every day. Responses will help identify recurring gaps, shape practical initiatives and support an anonymised Industry Voice findings report. This is a constructive, evidence-led conversation—not a campaign against any organisation.
