Cleaning - Residential Handover

The Cleaning – Residential Handover Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards and risks associated with the final cleaning of residential premises prior to handover, including risk of falls, work at heights, exposure to chemicals, use of plant, and hazardous manual tasks. The SWMS provides details of the health and safety precautions (including protective clothing and equipment) required for cleaning of residential premises before handover. (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.)
