Are there any asbestos workers on here and if so which visa do you apply for as Asbestos is not on any visa list....I have been offered several jobs but unsure on visa type....thanks

If your occupation is not on the lists then I am afraid getting a visa isn't going t be possible.

If you are the right age, a working holiday visa would allow you to take up work, but only for six months with each employer and for a maximum of two years.

So is asbestos worker a skill included under builder or roofer etc ? I wouldn't know what category it falls under, what is your qualification held in your field ?

I hold a qualification as an Asbestos Surveyor and Asbestos Manager.

And what precisely is that? What do you do as in work duties?

I have a friend who is authorised to handle and remove asbestos here in Australia, but he is a fully qualified and licensed builder first and foremost, and holds an additional license for asbestos handling. I don't think it exists as a recognised skill in it's own right here, but I might be wrong.
