Building contractors around Newcastle could be subject to snap inspections from government officials over the next couple of days.
Fair Trading, Safe Work and the NSW Building Commissioner are joining forces on a crackdown to ensure building standards and safety requirements on worksites are being met.
They'll be targeting multi-storey residential apartments which are under construction or recently completed.
The safety audit will be looking for early signs of building defects and non-compliance with standards.
Any defects or safety issues found must be addressed.
