Becoming a corporate member of the ADSS demonstrates an organisation’s commitment to assisting sufferers of Asbestos related disease, their families and carers and the raising of awareness of the dangers of Asbestos exposure.

ADSS aims to create a community where we all work together to:

• support sufferers of an Asbestos related disease, their family or carers; and
• prevent Asbestos exposure in the workplace and community;
• lobby for improvements on Asbestos related matters;
• work with the health community to aid in better understanding of Asbestos related disease;
• where possible fund research into Asbestos related diseases.

Our ethos is to assist sufferers to remain at home for as long as possible and as independent as possible even within the health care environment.

We are a national organisation but confine our activities to Queensland, Northern Territory and Northern New South Wales

People and Organisations pay a fee to join ADSS to show their commitment to the community and assist us in lobbying activities for improvements for sufferers or for protections against Asbestos exposure.

We are a Non-profit Charity

ADSS is a not-for-profit Charity registered with the ACNC. We also have deductible gift recipient status whereby donations of $2.00 or more are tax deductible.

Corporate membership of ADSS is open to:

• Peak Bodies
• Trade Unions
• Government Agencies
• Members of the Asbestos Industry Association
• Members of the Demolition and Asbestos Industry Association
• Any other organisation that agrees to the values of ADSS

Organisations applying for membership are expected to meet their Work Health and Safety obligations particularly in relation to silica handling and removal – failure to do so will lead to the cessation of
membership with ADSS.

Becoming a member of the ADSS is a clear demonstration of an organisation’s commitment to assisting sufferers of Asbestos disease and the raising of awareness of Asbestos exposure.

It is a commitment to helping those people who worked within industry with Asbestos at a difficult time in their lives. Furthermore, it assists the wives, sons and daughters who may also be sufferers by being exposed to Asbestos.

Being a member can help make the staff of the organisation feel good about the organisation that they work for and give a positive impression to customers, suppliers and the communities in which they operate.
