This Safe Work Method Statement/Job Safety Analysis is based on the following critical assumptions being valid, and remaining valid throughout the job. If any of these assumptions are violated,
or are found to be threatened, the risk is to be re-assessed and suitable controls implemented, communicated to the at risk workers and recorded.
Serial Assumption
1. Supervisors are qualified and sufficiently experienced to communicate and implement the risk controls in this SWMS\JSA.
2. Supervisors will develop their own Tool Box Talk briefings to articulate the risk controls applicable to them and their team.
3. New workers who join the group / team /work site will receive the full suite of induction training and safety briefings on relevant site risk controls
4. Individuals are not fatigued or under the influence of alcohol or drugs during the working day / shift.

OHS Incidents
Common Root Causes Pre Conditions for Accidents
Workers taking their eyes off the job Rushing – eyes off Job, mind off job, moving into a dangerous location
Workers taking their mind off the job Fatigue – impaired decision making / judgement
Workers putting themselves in the dangerous situations Frustration – mind not on the job
Workers losing Balance, Grip or Traction Complacency – repetitious work, arrogance
It is everyone’s responsibility to self trigger safe behaviors if any of the above conditions are Management and Supervisors need to be aware of the Pre Conditions for accidents, and where
experienced. possible and practicable, guard their workforce from them.

RISK MATRIX
All hazards must be ranked using the following risk matrix. All hazards are classified as High, Medium or Low. When assessing hazards ask yourself; does the hazard have the potential to;

How severely could it hurt someone?  How likely is it to be that bad? 


or  1 - Very likely 2 -  Likely 3 - Unlikely 4 - Very Unlikely
How ill could it make someone? Could happen at any time Could happen Sometime Could happen but very Could happen but
rarely probably never will
A - Kill or cause permanent disability or ill health H1 H2 H4 M7

B - Long Term illness or serious injury H3 H5 M8 M11

C - Medical Attention and several days off work H6 M9 M12 L14

D - First Aid needed M10 M13 L15 L16

The numbers show you how important it is to do something Residual Risk Action Required
Rating 1-6 High Risk Immediate Action Required –Redesign / Review Controls to Reduce Risk
Rating 7-13 Medium Risk Monitoring Required
Rating 14-16 Low Risk If Risk Increases Establish Monitoring

LEVEL CONTROL DEFINITION


Level 1 Elimination Physically remove the hazard
Level 2 Substitution Replace the hazard with the less hazardous one
Engineering / Isolation Separate hazard from the person. Engineering changes or changes to systems of work
Level 3 Administration Administrative actions to minimize exposure to hazards and to reduce the level of harm.
PPE Use personal protective equipment to protect people from harm.

Design Specifications Personal injury F Designers must: L Engineer
- -Fully describe all features of design
crushing -Provide SWMS for installation and stripping
- -Define load areas
falls -define acceptance criteria
- -Provide for field adjustment
being struck by falling -Describe location of weep, vibrator and clean-out holes
object and inspection openings
Collapse of st -Detail sequence of concrete placement, including any
ructure slopes, direction of pour and time between pours
Legislation breach -Describe strength, stability and stiffness of system
-Detail foundation materials
-Detail surface type (filling, compaction, drainage)
-Allow for loads during construction (such as workers,
materials, wind, false decks, rain, waterrunoff)reduce
fall risks where practicable

Certification of design must be provided by a


competent
person
All formwork materials (timber/plywood, prefab modules –aluminum,
steel or plastic) must meet quality testing criteria as
defined in AS 3610.
All exposed rebar ends must contain end-caps.
Ensure:
-Correct size for bar
-Fitted correctly
-Regular inspections are undertaken to check condition of
end caps and to ensure no caps are missing
Note: End-caps to NOT provide adequate protection against
impalement. Safe systems of work must be in place to prevent
persons falling onto rebar ends (capped or not). Examples include
guardrails, screens, edge protection
of scaffolds, barriers and
exclusion zones.
