Commercial Cleaning SWMS Templates

Commercial cleaning involves more than simply keeping workplaces tidy. Cleaners are exposed to chemicals, manual handling loads, slips, trips, falls and in some cases biological hazards. Without documented Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), cleaning tasks can easily lead to injuries.

BlueSafe provides a practical range of Commercial Cleaning SWMS templates to support safe cleaning operations in offices, schools, healthcare, retail, industrial and hospitality environments.

Our templates help cleaning companies and facility managers demonstrate a systematic approach to WHS when tendering, onboarding staff or mobilising new sites.

What’s Included in Commercial Cleaning SWMS?

Each Cleaning SWMS template typically includes:

  • hazard identification for chemicals, manual handling, slips, trips and equipment use
  • control measures including safe chemical handling, dosing, PPE and signage
  • step-by-step procedures for common cleaning tasks and equipment operation
  • requirements for storage, labelling and disposal of cleaning products
  • emergency procedures for spills, exposure and sharps incidents
  • sign-off sections for cleaners and supervisors

These templates are suitable for day, night and periodic cleaning work.
