Building Maintenance - general Information:
The Building Maintenance - general Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) is a comprehensive 18 page procedure. This SWMS deals with general hazards associated with building and property maintenance. Where tasks involve high risk work, such as operation of machinery, falls risks of 2m or more, work in confined spaces, asbestos or lead paint removal, A/C gassing, etc, a site and task-specific SWMS must be developed for that activity.
This SWMS is ideal for the handyman or property maintenance worker.
The Building Maintenance - general procedure is ready to use and is not a blank template. Simply add your company details, ABN, and include any site specific details or risks and make it specific to the task at hand. It is then ready for printing and to be incorporated as part of your overall OHS System.
The Building Maintenance- general Work Method Statement can be used as part of your OHS inductions, for Tool box talks or tender applications.
Planning
Liaise with client to determine whether:
- Excess clutter can be removed (if applicable)
- Any machinery is kept in a safe condition (not able to be accidentally turned on, safety guards in place)
- Electrical devices, power-points, switchboards etc are in a safe condition and RCD protected.
- Building security available when working alone, especially at night.
Ensure equipment is suitable for task. Examples:
- Light weight vacuums (back pack or hip-mounted)
- Low-noise power equipment (hearing protection may be required)
- Light-weight bucket/mops (with adjustable handle)
- Small sized equipment carts, well-maintained
- Small rubbish bins and bags
- Long handled tools with swiveling heads
- Step-ladders/ladders are industrial, sturdy and in good condition
In consultation with employees:
- Identify potentially hazardous manual handling tasks
- Conduct risk assessments for identified tasks, taking into account postures, task duration, forces exerted, environmental conditions and any previous injuries reported from that task.
- Implement suitable controls
Ensure suitable communication procedures and equipment provided (especially when working alone).
