Tile Saw

The Tile Saw Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards, risks and controls associated with the use of tile saws used in construction workplaces to cut material such as roofing tiles and accessories. The SWMS provides details of the inspections to be carried out before the saw is used and the safety precautions to be observed when using tile saws. (Note: Due to significant variations in Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) requirements between states and territories, reference to regulations, codes of practice and guidance material in each jurisdiction is recommended.) (See SWMS0437 – Silica – Respirable Crystalline (RCS)).
