Safe Work Method Statement

A Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is a detailed plan that outlines how specific work tasks will be carried out safely. It identifies potential hazards, the associated risks, and the control measures to minimize those risks. The purpose is to ensure workers understand the safe procedures before starting work, helping prevent accidents and injuries. SWMS is commonly used in construction and high-risk industries to promote a safe working environment and ensure compliance with safety regulations. It acts as a preventive guide, ensuring safety is considered systematically for each task.
