Electrical Work - New Installations

The Electrical Work - New Installations Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards and risks associated with work involving new low voltage electrical installations in buildings under construction, including risk of falls, hazardous manual tasks, and environmental hazards due to construction activities and waste generated on site. The SWMS provides details of the safety and environmental controls required when installing new low voltage electrical installations in buildings. (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.)
