Test and Tag Regulations in Australia

Test and tag requirements vary across Australia. Although AS/NZS 3760 and AS/NZS 3012 are used nationally, each state has its own workplace safety laws and regulator.

Depending on where you work, differences may apply to who can test and tag, testing frequencies, test tag colours, and any additional licensing requirements.
