Australia regulation research

Pacific. The countries of the Pacific tend to use US FDA and sometimes EPA information. Some countries have specific rules that are followed. For example, Korea has the NIER (National Institute of Environmental Research), Australia the NICNASS, however, Indonesia is not regulated and Taiwan has no specific regulations for biocides. 

The research shows that developed countries such as the US, Singapore, Australia and France have well-established legal systems on construction safety. Nevertheless, for some of the developing countries such as Kuwait, even though the current safety regulations cover citizens only, most of the workers on sites are not citizens. There is no inspection carried out by the Egyptian safety offices to ensure the enforcement of safety provisions. Penalties for construction accidents are low (Table 3.2).
