What are the tasks involved? What are the hazards and risks?
(What is the problem?)
What are the control measures?
(Describe the control measures and how they will be used)
Think about the workplace and each stage of the work, including preparation and clean-up.
Identify the hazards and risks that may cause harm to workers or
the public.
Describe what will be done to control the risk. What will you do to make the activity as safe as
possible?

Implementation
How have relevant workers
been provided with
information and instruction
so that they understand the
hazards arising from this
work, understand and can
implement the identified
control measures, and know
what to do if the work is not
being conducted in
accordance with this
SWMS?
All workers have acquired skill and knowledge through a combination of training, qualification and experience to safely and
efficiently carryout HR tasks as described in the SWMS sequential steps.
All workers are:
1. Inducted into the General Lifts SWMS.
2. Encouraged to actively participate in, and review and monitor actual work processes at all times.
3. By signing the SWMS, acknowledge that they have understood the SWMS procedures and hazards associated with
tasks.
4. That they are fit for work to the best of their ability and are not increasing the risk to others in the team or themselves
due to the influence of alcohol or drugs.
What measures are in place
to ensure that work is being
carried out in accordance
with the SWMS once work
commences?
1. Continuous monitoring and review of SWMS by crane crew and site supervisor
2. Consultation and communication between crew and major contractor through site safety walks and scheduled site
safety committee meetings
3. Stop and review work where task and work activity differ. Toolbox safe solution with all personnel.
NOTE: A SWMS must be kept and be available for inspection until at least the high-risk construction work is completed. Where a SWMS is revised, all versions should be
kept. If a notifiable incident occurs in relation to the high-risk construction work to which the SWMS relates, then the SWMS must be kept for at least 2 years from the date of
the notifiable incident.

Recommended steps for filling out the SWMS template
1. Consult with relevant workers, contractors and health and safety representatives involved with the high-risk construction work, the activities involved, and associated
hazards, risks and controls.
2. In the ‘What is the high-risk construction work?’ column, identify the high-risk construction work for the construction work activity that will be undertaken.
3. In the ‘What are the hazards and risks?’ column, list the hazards and risks for each high-risk construction work activity.
4. Identify the workplace circumstances that may affect the way in the high-risk construction work will be done.
Examples of workplace circumstances that may impact on the hazards and risks include:
 information relating to the design of the structure, the workplace (e.g., location, access, transport), and information contained in the WHS Management Plan
 information on any ‘essential services’ located on or near the workplace
 confirmation that the regulator has been advised of any ‘notifiable work’ (e.g., demolition work involving explosives)
 safe work methods and plant to be used.
5. In the ‘How will the hazards and risks be controlled?’ column, select an appropriate control or combination of controls by working through the hierarchy of controls. It is
important that you can justify why the selected control measure is reasonably practicable for the specific workplace.
Selecting control measures
1. Eliminate the risks so far as is reasonably practicable
2. If this is not reasonably practicable, minimise them so far as reasonably practicable by applying the following hierarchy of control measures:
i. minimise the risk by doing one or more of the following:
o substituting the hazard
o isolating the hazard
o implementing engineering controls
ii. if the risk remains, minimise the remaining risk by implementing administrative controls
iii. if the risk remains, minimise the remaining risk by ensuring the provision and use of suitable personal protective equipment (PPE).

SWMS implementation and compliance (information, monitoring and review)
1. Brief each team member on the SWMS before commencing work. Ensure team knows work is to stop if the SWMS is not followed.
2. Observe the work being carried out and monitor compliance with the SWMS. Review risk controls regularly:
 before a change occurs to the work itself, the system of work or the work location
 if a new hazard associated with the work is identified
 when new or additional information about the hazard becomes available
 when a notifiable incident occurs in relation to the work
 when risk controls are inadequate, or the SWMS is not being followed.
In all the above situations stop the work, review the SWMS, adjust as required and re-brief the team.
Keep the SWMS in a readily available location for the duration of the high-risk construction work and for at least 2 years after a notifiable incident occurs.
