General Cleaning (Cleaning)
General commercial and site cleaning - surfaces, floors, amenities and waste - using cleaning chemicals and powered equipment.
Objective
Clean so that chemicals are used and stored per the SDS and never mixed, wet floors cannot slip anyone, and electrical and sharps hazards are controlled.
This is the Cleaning version. The hazards and controls are written around cleaning work, so it differs from the other 2 trade versions of General Cleaning. Compare all 3.
Built by WHS professionals, written for your state
Every document is built by WHS professionals. Each state version references the Act, regulator, and requirements for the state you select. Victoria gets the OHS Act and WorkSafe Victoria, NSW gets the WHS Act and SafeWork NSW.

When you'd use this SWMS
If general cleaning (cleaning) 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.
