What is a SWMS?
A Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is a legally required document that outlines high-risk construction work activities, potential hazards, and the control measures in place to minimise risks. A compliant Safe Work Method Statement in Australia not only safeguards workers but also demonstrates a business's commitment to workplace safety and meeting legal SWMS compliance standards in Australia.
By implementing an effective SWMS, businesses can reduce workplace accidents and injuries, meet legal and regulatory requirements under Australian WHS laws, improve operational efficiency by defining safe work practices, and strengthen business credibility with contractors, clients, and regulatory bodies.

Got Questions?
Frequently asked questions
What types of businesses need a SWMS?
SWMS is legally required for all businesses involved in high-risk construction work. This includes construction companies, contractors, and trade professionals operating in environments where risks such as working at heights, exposure to hazardous substances, or operating heavy machinery exist.
Who is responsible for preparing a SWMS?
A Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking (PCBU) is responsible for ensuring a SWMS is in place before high-risk construction work begins. However, expert safety consultants like Solving Safety On Site can assist in preparing and implementing an effective SWMS.
How often should a SWMS be reviewed?
A SWMS should be reviewed regularly, especially when new work activities, hazards, or safety regulations emerge. Additionally, if an incident occurs, the SWMS must be reassessed to identify necessary improvements.
Can a SWMS be used across multiple projects?
While a general SWMS can be used as a template, it must be tailored to each specific worksite and task to ensure relevance and compliance with site-specific conditions.
How can SSOS help with SWMS development?
We provide end-to-end support, from assessing workplace hazards to developing a tailored SWMS and ensuring compliance through training and ongoing guidance.
