When you'd use this SWMS

If panel lifting & erection 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 Precast Concrete and Tilt-Up pack bundles this with the rest and works out cheaper. New to it? Here's what goes in a SWMS.
