Infection control for mining and remote sites
Remote sites, shared accommodation and changing crews make infection control hard to keep consistent. We build a process that suits the site, from Perth and regional Western Australia to Queensland.
Common problems, and how we approach them
- 01
Accommodation and change rooms turn over constantly.
We design a cleaning sequence that works the same way when crews arrive and leave.
- 02
Too many chemicals on site.
We review chemical load against each label and keep what already works.
- 03
Limited access to testing.
We coordinate accredited laboratories for surface, air and water testing, wherever the site is.
- 04
Water systems in camps.
We review how water is run, filtered and checked, and bring in a specialist where needed.
- 05
Washdown and drainage.
What goes down the drain is part of the brief, so we favour lower-chemical practice where the setting allows.
