Demolition licensing

Applications for a new demolition licence, renewal of an existing demolition licence or to change a nominated supervisor (Class 1 and Class 2).

Under the Work Health and Safety Act (2020) and Work Health and Safety (General) Regulations 2022 there are two types of demolition licence (Class 1 and Class 2). Each licence is valid for a period of three years and is endorsed with a number of conditions and legislation that relate to the way demolition work is carried out in Western Australia. Persons who have duties in relation to demolition work should also refer to the Code of practice: Construction work.

Already have a licence in Australia or New Zealand?

If you are registered or licensed as a demolition professional elsewhere in Australia or New Zealand, and want to be registered in Western Australia, you may be able to apply for mutual recognition to get a WA licence or automatic mutual recognition to have your licence recognised in WA.
