When you'd use this SWMS

If cladding installation is part of your job, the builder or head contractor will usually want a SWMS for it before you start on site. This one's editable in Word. Add your company and site details, check the hazards and controls against the actual job, and get your crew to sign on before work starts.

Not sure whether you need one? When a SWMS is required covers it, and the 18 high risk construction work categories are the list a principal contractor works from.

Doing the whole trade? The Carpentry pack bundles this with the rest and works out cheaper. New to it? Here's what goes in a SWMS.

Our catalogue covers 105 trades, but not every job fits one.

Same format as everything else here: editable Word, your state's Act and regulator, ready to put your details on. We can also brand your SWMS pack with your logo and company details.
