Roofing Contractors SWMS Templates

Roofing contractors regularly work at heights, on sloping and sometimes fragile surfaces, often in variable weather conditions. Without detailed Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), the risk of falls and dropped objects is significantly increased.

BlueSafe offers a specialist range of Roofing Contractors SWMS templates to support safe installation and maintenance of metal, tile and membrane roofs.

Our templates suit new build roofing, re-roofs, repairs and maintenance works.

What’s Included in Roofing Contractors SWMS?

Each Roofing SWMS template typically includes:

• hazard identification for work at heights, fragile surfaces, weather and manual handling
• control measures including edge protection, fall arrest systems, access control and PPE
• step-by-step procedures for access, installation, fixing and clean-up
• requirements for ladders, scaffolds, EWPs and roof access systems
• emergency response procedures for falls or weather-related events
• worker and supervisor sign-off sections

These templates are ideal for inclusion in roofing project WHS plans and site documentation.
