Demolition - Concrete Slab

The Demolition – Concrete Slab Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards and risks associated with the demolition of existing concrete slabs following demolition or removal of a building or structure, including use of mobile plant, hazardous manual tasks, vehicular traffic and movement, and working in outdoor environments. The SWMS provides details of the health and safety precautions (including personal protection) required for the demolition of concrete slabs. (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.)
