At the heart of ensuring safety and regulatory compliance on structural steel construction projects is a well-designed Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS). Our template provides you with a base to develop your SWMS specific to your project needs, all while maintaining a focus on practicality and usability.
Pre-filled and Comprehensive
This template comes pre-filled with standard practices and guidelines to give you a solid start. It’s comprehensive enough to guide you through potential hazards and necessary precautions even for complex projects, helping ensure nothing crucial slips through the cracks.
Fully editable and customisable in Microsoft Word format for easy editing
We know that every project has its unique requirements. That’s why our template is fully editable in Microsoft Word – a program that most are already familiar with. You can effortlessly tweak and tailor it to suit the specifics of your work environment or project demands.
Includes the scope of the project and the project details
Set clear boundaries by explicitly defining what your project entails. This section helps everyone involved understand the overarching aims, timelines, and responsibilities, providing context to the rest of the SWMS document.
Includes checklist of any high risk machinery on site
A handy checklist is included to easily identify and keep track of high-risk machinery on site, emphasising areas where heightened vigilance is warranted. Cover all bases before the gear comes into play.
Includes space for recording any staff training
Incorporate a dedicated space to log completed training sessions and certifications. This ensures that every team member on site possesses the required skillset and knowledge to operate safely and effectively.
Includes before and after risk ratings
Capture the effectiveness of your control measures by documenting risk ratings both prior to and following implementation. It’s an invaluable tool for reviewing and improving job site protocols continuously.
Includes resources for use of legislative references
Stay informed with links and references to the latest legislative texts and regulations pertinent to structural steel construction, helping you adhere to legal standards and industry best practices.
Includes all PPE required
This section lists Personal Protective Equipment necessary for various tasks involved in the project, promoting consistent safety measures across the board.
Includes risk assessment and risk assessment matrix
Our risk assessment segment along with its clear matrix aids in evaluating potential hazards efficiently, ensuring preventive strategies don’t miss critical risks.
Includes a checklist to ensure all requirements have been covered when implementing the SWMS
An all-encompassing checklist works as your final walkthrough, confirming all key components of the SWMS have been recognised and addressed satisfactorily.
Includes sign off page for all workers and responsible persons
Gain collective agreement and accountability by utilising the sign-off page. Here, every participant, from workers to supervisors, endorses the documented methods and acknowledges their understanding and commitment to abide by them.
Easy to use, easy to customise
Designed with simplicity in mind, the template is straightforward to navigate, making it less of a chore to adjust according to the project’s changing dynamics or requirements.
Suitable for large contracts and Tenders, including tier 1 contractual work
Whether working on towering sky scrapers or widespread industrial plants, this template caters to high-stakes, large-scale operations without missing out on essential details.
