Painting & Decorating WHS Documents

Painters and decorators work on ladders, scaffolds and EWPs, often with solvents and in occupied homes, offices and public spaces.

BlueSafe’s painting WHS documents are written for:

• domestic and commercial painters
• industrial and protective coating contractors
• strata and maintenance painting businesses

Our templates help you manage:

• work at heights on ladders, trestles and scaffolds
• surface preparation, sanding and scraping
• paint, solvent and thinner use
• overspray, drift and work near the public

Documents Available for the Painting Industry

This category includes WHS documents for activities such as:

• interior and exterior painting
• high‑level painting from scaffolds or EWP
