As a tradie in Victoria, you’ll know that safety should always be a top priority.
It’s pretty simple, if you’re a tradesman in Victoria you need a SWMS.
A SWMS (safe work method statement) is a document that outlines the safe work procedures for specific tasks or jobs you do as a tradie. It includes information on the risks involved, as well as the control measures that will be used to eliminate, or minimise those risks. It is required by law in Victoria when a tradesman performs specific tasks.
Depending on your business, you should also consider what other safety documents you need to have in place such as a safety management plan. This is because the risks associated with performing construction work are significant. Plus, Victorian legislation requires you to manage safety. The easiest way to do this is by having a management plan in place.
