Hospitality and Events SWMS Templates

Hospitality and events operations bring together food preparation, service, crowd movement and temporary structures. Without structured Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), staff may be exposed to slips, trips, burns, strains and equipment-related injuries.

BlueSafe provides a selection of Hospitality and Events SWMS templates designed for everyday operations as well as large functions and events.

Our templates assist venues and organisers to document safe work methods for both front-of-house and back-of-house tasks.

What’s Included in Hospitality and Events SWMS?

Each Hospitality and Events SWMS template typically includes:

  • hazard identification covering kitchen work, service areas, bump-in and bump-out activities

  • step-by-step procedures for setup, service and pack-down tasks
  • requirements for equipment such as ovens, fryers, warmers and mobile plant
  • emergency response and incident reporting prompts
  • staff and supervisor sign-off sections

These templates are suitable for permanent venues and temporary event sites.
