Construction SWMS Templates
Safe Work Method Statements are legally required before any high risk construction work begins under the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2025. Australia defines 19 categories of high risk construction work (HRCW), each requiring a documented SWMS before work commences. All EHS Atlas templates include psychosocial hazard controls mandated from 1 April 2023 and Section 26A binding code of practice mapping effective 1 July 2026. Download, customise, and implement SWMS that satisfy regulator expectations across every Australian jurisdiction.
