Late last month, the ACT Legislative Assembly became the first Accredited Asthma Friendly Workplace in the ACT.

The Asthma Friendly Workplace Program is currently being operated by the ACT Branch of the Asthma Foundation and seeks to ensure that all workplaces are safe for people living with asthma.

The program involves ensuring that the workplace is free from hazards for asthma sufferers.

It also involves making sure that other staff in the workplace are trained to recognise and respond in the event of an asthma-related emergency.
