Painting and Decorating SWMS Templates
Painting and decorating work involves surface preparation, the use of solvents and coatings, and often work at heights. Without detailed Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), painters can be exposed to falls, respiratory hazards and chemical risks.
BlueSafe offers a dedicated range of Painting and Decorating SWMS templates to help contractors manage these risks across a wide variety of projects.
Our templates are suitable for new construction, repaints, maintenance and specialist coatings.
What’s Included in Painting and Decorating SWMS?
Each Painting SWMS template typically includes:
- hazard identification for access, chemical exposure, manual handling and environmental factors
- control measures including fall protection, ventilation, PPE and safe use of platforms
- step-by-step procedures for preparation, application and clean-up
- requirements for brushes, rollers, spray equipment and associated plant
- waste disposal and environmental management guidance
- worker and supervisor sign-off sections
These templates are ideal for toolbox talks and site-specific safety plans.
