What's in an AMP

  • Reference to the current Asbestos Register and how it's kept up-to-date
  • Roles and responsibilities — who manages ACM at the site, who reviews the AMP
  • Procedures for informing workers, contractors, tenants, and visitors
  • Contractor induction and permit-to-work processes for any disturbance of ACM
  • Condition monitoring schedule for in-place ACM
  • Triggers for removal vs in-place management
  • Incident response procedures (accidental disturbance, damage, exposure)
  • Review schedule (typically 5-yearly + event-triggered reviews)

Why you need a written AMP

Three reasons. Compliance — the WHS Regulation requires it, and a missing or stale AMP is one of the first things a regulator will pick up on. Liability — if an incident occurs and no AMP existed, the PCBU is in a materially worse position. Operational clarity — without a documented plan, every contractor and every staff change risks the institutional knowledge of "what to do about ACM here" being lost.

Asbestos Management Plans — FAQs

What's an Asbestos Management Plan? +
A written document describing how ACM at a workplace will be managed — who's responsible, how the register is kept current, what's safe to leave in place, what triggers removal, how contractors are inducted, and how staff and visitors are informed. The Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011 (Qld) requires a workplace with identified ACM to have one.
How is it different from the Asbestos Register? +
The register is the list of what ACM is where and in what condition. The management plan is the procedural document — how you will manage the items the register identifies. You need both, and they reference each other.
Who needs an AMP? +
Any PCBU at a workplace where ACM has been identified, or where the building was built before 31 December 2003 and a register exists. Commercial property owners, body corporate, government tenancies, schools, industrial operators.
How often does the AMP need to be reviewed? +
At minimum every five years (alongside the audit cycle), and whenever ACM is removed, disturbed, refurbished, or newly identified. Significant building changes (refits, change of use) also trigger a review.
Do you also do the audit and the register? +
Yes — typically the audit, register, and AMP are bundled into one engagement. See our audits and registers page. Having one assessor responsible for all three documents keeps them consistent.
