What is a Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS)?
A Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is a legally required document in Australia that outlines high-risk construction work and the steps necessary to carry it out safely. It identifies potential hazards, control measures, and step-by-step safety procedures to keep workers protected.
Why is an SWMS Required?
Legal Requirements (WHS Legislation in Australia)
Under the Work Health and Safety (WHS) Act 2011 and WHS Regulations 2011, an SWMS is mandatory for any high-risk construction work (HRCW). Regulation 299 specifies that an SWMS must be prepared for tasks such as:
✅ Working at heights above 2 metres
✅ Excavation deeper than 1.5 metres
✅ Working near traffic or mobile plant
✅ Using hazardous substances or asbestos
✅ Working in confined spaces or near utilities
Client & Principal Contractor Requirements
Many clients, builders, and principal contractors demand SWMS documentation to ensure:
✅ Compliance with site safety policies
✅ Reduced risk of accidents and insurance claims
✅ Standardised safety procedures across subcontractors
✅ Eligibility for government, commercial, and Tier 1 projects
