What You Need To Know About SWMS Template For The Electrotechnology Industry

Posted by Safety Specialist on January 28th, 2022

Australia considers the health and safety of workers working in potentially dangerous environments with high regard.

Organizations that work in the electromagnetic industry should know they carry a regulatory burden to implement regulatory requirements and safeguard employee safety. SWMS is the core document in guiding all the employees to obey regulatory requirements. A swms example is customized to your business. However, it is ideal to start with swms template library that NECA maintains.

The SWMS template (Safe Work Method Statement template) is tailored for the tasks in one of 18 categories that are a \"high risk\" according to the Australian government.

The range for these high-risk activities includes working around:

• Explosives

• Close live electrical installations or electrical services

• Cramped spaces

• Gas, flammable materials or chemicals

(Find a complete list of the high-risk activities by visiting the Safe Work Australia Website.)

You require one of the template documents if the activities in your business fall in areas of high-risk work for it to guide your project.

Lead by Example: What does SWMS involve?

SWMS documents require a combined implementation by all stakeholders in a project. Leaders and employees should have mastery of the identified high risks together with the best practices for managing the risks.

A swms example or Template document is the starting point. It is from here that you layout the project\'s audited risk of assessment, the work environment and the steps that the organization will take to control the risks.

The biggest advantage of the NECA SWMS template document is the peace of mind it provides because you know the template drafters are experts. For instance one of the drafters, Owen Leslie is an electrical safety expert with a diploma in WHS. He also has a WHS champion award from Hinter Safety Awards.

Leslie drafts the swms example documents in consultation with Safety Regulators, Construction companies, Electrical contractors and Network distributors. An investment in these documents facilitates access to robust information that recognizes common needs required by specific SWMS verticals.
