Australia's workplace ministers have agreed to implement a national ban on engineered stone, over concerns its use has led to a surge in silicosis cases among workers.
It's a good step to ban this should the the silicosis be a legitimate concern. The rest of the world should follow Australia's lead here. Don't want a repeat of the asbestos situation globally. I still remember attending sone primary and high school classes in pre-fabricated asbestos classrooms in South Africa during the 2000s and 2010s.
