Air Conditioning & Refrigeration WHS Documents

Air conditioning and refrigeration technicians face a unique mix of electrical, chemical and height-related risks. From installing split systems on two-storey roofs to maintaining cool rooms and working inside plant rooms, HVAC businesses must be able to demonstrate solid WHS planning every time they step onto a site.

Our documents are designed to help you:

  • meet principal contractor and builder WHS requirements
  • win tenders and service contracts with professional documentation
