Working in Private Residences (Plastering)
Plastering and lining work carried out in occupied private homes, around residents, children and pets, with dust containment and daily make-safe.
SWMS template. Editable Word document, written for your state, ready to adapt to the job.
Objective
Complete the work safely by controlling harm to occupants, dust spread through the home, strikes on concealed services and accidental asbestos disturbance through exclusion zones, dust containment, scanning before cutting and a do-not-disturb asbestos response.
This is the Plastering version. The hazards and controls are written around plastering work, so it differs from the other 53 trade versions of Working in Private Residences. Compare all 54.
Your state's laws, in the document
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 working in private residences (plastering) 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 Plastering pack bundles this with the rest and works out cheaper. New to it? Here's what goes in a SWMS.

Need a safety document we don’t have?
Our catalogue covers 105 trades, but not every job fits one. If a principal contractor has asked for something specific, or the work you do is not in the list, we write it from scratch for your trade and your state. 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. We’ll write it for you →
