ʻO ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka lawe ʻana mai a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka quartz engineered ua hiki ke kokoke loa i Australia.
Ma ka lā 28 Pepeluali, ua ʻae like nā kuhina o ke olakino a me ka palekana o nā mokuʻāina a me nā panalāʻau me kahi noi a ke Kuhina Wahi Hana Pekelala ʻo Tony Burke e noi iā Safe Work Australia (ʻo Australia e like me ka Health & Safety Executive) e hoʻomākaukau i kahi hoʻolālā e pāpā i nā huahana.
ʻO ka hoʻoholo ma hope o ka ʻōlelo aʻo ʻana e ka mana ikaika Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining & Energy Union (CFMEU) i Nowemapa (heluhelu i ka hōʻike ma kēlāmaanei) e ho'ōki kona mau lālā i ka hana ʻana i ka quartz inā ʻaʻole i pāpā ke aupuni iā ia ma ka lā 1 Iulai 2024.
Ma Victoria, kekahi o nā mokuʻāina o Australia, pono e laikini ʻia nā hui e hana i ka quartz engineered.Ua hoʻokomo ʻia ke kānāwai e koi ana i ka laikini i ka makahiki i hala.Pono nā ʻoihana e hōʻoia i ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā hana palekana i mea e loaʻa ai ka laikini a koi ʻia e hāʻawi i ka ʻike i ka poʻe noi hana e pili ana i nā pilikia olakino e pili ana i ka ʻike ʻana i ka respirable crystalline silica (RCS).Pono lākou e hōʻoia i ka hāʻawi ʻia ʻana o nā limahana i nā lako pale pilikino (PPE) a me ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana e kāohi i nā pilikia o ka ʻike ʻana i ka lepo.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Cosentino, ka mea nāna i hana i ka quartz Silestone alakaʻi ma ka mākeke, ua manaʻoʻiʻo ʻo ia ka hoʻoponopono ʻana ma Victoria i ke kaulike kūpono ma waena o ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka palekana o nā limahana, e pale ana i nā hana o 4,500 stonemasons (a me nā hana ma ke kūkulu ākea a me ka hale kūkulu hale. ʻāpana), ʻoiai e hāʻawi mau ana i nā mea kūʻai aku me nā huahana kiʻekiʻe, hoʻomau no ko lākou mau home a / a i ʻole nā ʻoihana.
Ma ka lā 28 Pepeluali, ua hōʻike ʻo Tony Burke i ka manaʻolana e hiki ke hoʻolālā ʻia nā lula ma ka hopena o kēia makahiki e kāohi a pāpā paha i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka quartz engineered i kēlā me kēia mokuʻāina.
Hōʻike ʻia ʻo ia e7 Nūhou(a me nā mea ʻē aʻe) ma Australia me ka ʻōlelo ʻana: “Inā hōʻeha a pepehi paha kahi mea pāʻani a nā keiki, e lawe mākou iā ia mai nā papa - ʻehia mau tausani o nā limahana e make ma mua o kā mākou hana ʻana i nā huahana silica?ʻAʻole hiki iā mākou ke hoʻopaneʻe i kēia.ʻO ka manawa kēia i noʻonoʻo ai mākou i kahi pāpā.ʻAʻole wau makemake e kali a puni ke ʻano o ka poʻe i hana ai me ka asbestos.
Eia nō naʻe, ke hana nei ʻo Safe Work Australia i kahi ala ʻoi aku ka nuanced, e hōʻike ana e hiki ke loaʻa kahi pae ʻoki ʻia no ka silica crystalline i nā huahana a pili paha ka pāpā i ka ʻoki maloʻo ma mua o ka mea ponoʻī.
Ua lilo nā mea hana o ka quartz engineered i kā lākou kūʻai aku i ka wā e pili ana i ka silica.Makemake lākou e hoʻoikaika i nā kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe o ka quartz kūlohelohe i kā lākou huahana, e ʻōlelo pinepine ana he 95% (a i ʻole kekahi mea like) maoli quartz (ʻo ia ka crystalline silica).
He alakaʻi hewa ia no ka mea ʻo ia ka manawa e ana ʻia ai nā ʻāpana e ke kaumaha, a ʻoi aku ke kaumaha o ka quartz ma mua o ka resin i hoʻopaʻa ʻia i loko o kahi papa hana quartz.Ma ka leo, he 50% a emi mai paha ka quartz o ka huahana.
Manaʻo paha kekahi cynic ma ka hoʻololi wale ʻana i ke ʻano o ka hōʻike ʻana o ka quartz i loko o ka huahana, hiki i ka quartz engineered ke pale i kekahi pāpā e pili ana i ka ʻāpana o ka silica crystalline i loko o kahi huahana.
Ua hele ʻo Cosentino i kahi ʻanuʻu ma o ka hoʻololi ʻana i kekahi o ka quartz i kāna Silestone HybriQ + me ke aniani, ʻo ia kahi ʻano silica ʻē aʻe i ʻike ʻole ʻia e kumu ai ka silicosis.Ua makemake ʻo Cosentino i kēia manawa e kapa i kāna Silestone i hoʻoponopono hou ʻia he 'ʻili koleke hybrid' ma mua o ka quartz.
Ma kahi ʻōlelo e pili ana i ka ʻike silica crystalline o kāna Silestone me ka ʻenehana HybriQ, ʻōlelo ʻo Cosentino aia ka liʻiliʻi ma mua o 40% crystalline silica.Ua ʻōlelo ka Luna Hoʻokele o UK ʻo Paul Gidley, ua ana ʻia e ke kaumaha.
ʻAʻole ʻo ka silicosis wale nō ka hopena ma muli o ka inhalation o ka lepo i ka wā e hana ai i nā papa hana.Aia nā ʻano māmā like ʻole i pili i ka hana a aia kekahi manaʻo e kōkua ka resin i ka quartz i ka pōʻino o ka hanu ʻana i ka lepo ma muli o ka ʻoki ʻana a me ka hoʻoliʻiliʻi ʻana i ka quartz, ʻo ia ka mea e wehewehe ai i ke kumu o ka poʻe e hana ana ia mea. pilikia a no ke aha e ulu wikiwiki ai ka silicosis i loko o lākou.
He hoike na Safe Work Australia e hoikeia aku i na Kuhina.Manaʻo ʻia e paipai i ʻekolu mau hana: kahi hoʻonaʻauao a me ka hoʻolaha ʻike;ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i ka lepo silica ma nā ʻoihana āpau;ka nānā hou aʻe a me ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka pāpā ʻana i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā pōhaku i hana ʻia.
E hōʻike ʻo Safe Work i kahi hōʻike e pili ana i ka pāpā ʻana i loko o ʻeono mahina a e kākau i nā lula ma ka hopena o ka makahiki.
E hui hou nā kuhina ma hope o ka makahiki e nānā i ka holomua.
