This Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) template covers Elevated Work Platform (EWP) operations for construction sites. It guides teams through breaking down the work into steps, identifying hazards, assessing risk levels, and applying control measures. It includes sections for maintenance checks, responsible personnel, competencies, and site inductions. Workers are required to read procedures and equipment manuals, participate in toolbox talks, and sign off to confirm understanding. Use this SWMS to standardize safe EWP practices, support compliance, and document approvals and reviews.
