Risk AssessmentsRisk Assessments have been carried out as reported within this document. It may be necessary to review these from time to time. This will be done in accordance with the Workplace Health and Safety Code of Practice for Risk Assessments. Section 22 of the Workplace Health and Safety Act sets out how to apply Risk Management -

Identify the hazard Assess the risk that may result because of the hazard. Decide on the control measures to prevent, or minimise the level of risk, and Implement the controls. Monitor and review the effectiveness of the measures.

LaddersLadders are to be marked Industrial type with a load rating of at least 120kg and be Australian Standard approved. Ladders are to be secured before use. The ladder must extend at least one (1) metre past the landing platform. Utmost care is to be exercised when transporting these ladders, as damage will make them unsuitable to be used on site.When working on a ladder the user should remain centred between the stiles. The user should not stand higher than the tread or rung indicated on the ladder as the highest standing level. The user should not stand on —

The top cap or the top tread of a self-supporting ladder; Above the second top rung of a non-self-supporting ladder; or The rear horizontal braces of a single-sided self-supporting ladder.

When working from a ladder higher than three (3) metres on domestic sites or 2.4 metres on other sites, the worker will have at least three (3) points of contact on the ladder ie: both legs and one arm. If a worker is unable to have three (3) points of contact on the ladder then a pole strap must be used. The pole strap must be used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.The ladder should be kept close to the work. The user should not overreach, but instead should descend and relocate the ladder. A ladder should not be relocated while anyone is on the ladder. When using a ladder the user should never push or pull unless the ladder is properly secured.Users should not 'walk' the ladder to reposition it but instead should descend and relocate the ladder. 'Walking' describes the action of a person at the top of a ladder who, by moving their body, causes the bottoms of the ladder stiles to lift clear of the floor so causing the ladder to move.Important Notes:

Single ladder to be no more than 6.1 metres in length; Extension ladder maximum length 7.5 metres; Industrial load rated 120 kg.

StiltsStilts are to be inspected thoroughly for defective components. These defective components are to be replaced before use.

The wearing of stilts within the building construction industry can be hazardous unless the manufacturers’ instructions are fully followed.The manufacturers’ instructions state the following and will be adhered to:

Stilts must not be worn without prior inspection

Page 9:  · Web viewPreferred Plaster ABN: 27 370 199 289 Shed 8, 16 Sydal Street Little Mountain (PO Box 3798, Caloundra DC, 4551) Phone: 07 54918090 Fax: 07 54918084 Work Method Statement

electric cable, extension cords etc; Don’t carry heavy loads while using stilts; Don’t attempt to walk fast or run on stilts; Don’t attempt to pick anything lower than floor level; Don’t wear stilts that are higher than necessary; Don’t become over confident and fail to exercise caution; Don’t lean over objects while on stilts; Don’t take steps so large that the action springs the bottom out; Don’t modify the stilts in anyway; Don’t wear on balconies, stair wells or near lift wells; Don’t wear silts up and down stairs.

Mobile ScaffoldMobile Scaffold will be erected in accordance with the mobile scaffold plan / manufacturer’s instructions.

Mobile scaffold plan will be attached to the scaffold. At no time will the mobile scaffold be used without handrails of at least 900mm

high and mid-rails. Toe boards will be in place. Internal stair way will be in place and will be used. At no time will workers climb up the outside of the mobile scaffold. Wheels will be locked into place when being used.At no time will a person ride the mobile scaffold.

Work PlatformsCompetent workers or workers working under the direction of competent workers will be allowed to use elevated work platforms such as scissor lifts and booms up to eleven (11) metres. Qualified workers only will be allowed to operate elevated work platforms over eleven (11) metres.

Working at Heights Domestic Construction Where there is a risk of falling less than three (3) metres in housing construction, work may be performed only where the hazard has been managed.Where there is a risk of falling more than three (3) metres in housing construction work the following must be installed:

Approved Edge protection; or Fall arrest platform; or Approved Fall arrest systems (some harness must not be used where a worker

can fall less than 6.5 metres); or Fall protection may be of an approved safety railing system.

Electrical Equipment The Principal Contractor is to ensure an appropriate safety switch on site.Generators provided for the supply of electricity must have the appropriate safety devices in place and in working condition, to prevent or minimise the risk of electric shock. In accordance with the Electrical Safety Regulations our electrical equipment will be kept in safe working condition, tested, tagged and maintained. Testing and tagging will be carried out by a competent person every three (3) months. Recommended Colour schedule for tags:

Red January –March; Green April –June; Blue July –September; Yellow October –December;

A register of the equipment with a record of formal tests, inspections and repairs will be kept. Heavy duty leads are to extend no more than 35 metres.Piggyback plugs and double adapters will not be used. Green coloured cords will not be used. Unsafe electrical equipment will be removed from use. Portable Residual Current Devices (RCD) will be pushbutton tested daily.

Compressed AirCompressed air can cause serious injuries to workers. Compressed air tools are not to be misused. Compressed air tools are to be used for the task the tool is designed for.Compressed air hose coupling must be of a permanent nature or have coupling clips to prevent the hoses from parting.Never direct the air jet at yourself or any other worker.Never use defective equipment.Manual TasksBack Injuries, sprains and strains are the major cause of lost time injuries. There are some simple steps that you can follow to eliminate the risk of a manual handling injury.

Step 1. Always plan your lift. Select your pathway and check it for trip hazards. Inspect the destination and determine where the load will be placed.

Step 2. Examine the object. Determine its weight. Look for any sharp edges or

Page 11:  · Web viewPreferred Plaster ABN: 27 370 199 289 Shed 8, 16 Sydal Street Little Mountain (PO Box 3798, Caloundra DC, 4551) Phone: 07 54918090 Fax: 07 54918084 Work Method Statement

spikes. Will the load be balanced when lifted? Will the load block my vision?

Step 3. Position your feet around the load to get as close as possible. Keep your back straight and bend your legs. Get a good grip, using your palms and fingers.

Step 4. Using your legs lift the object up. Lift smoothly and keep your back straight. Do not twist while lifting.

Step 5. Carry the load to its destination. Bending your legs and keeping your back straight, place the load at its destination. Make sure the load is not placed in a walkway and represents a trip hazard.

Step 6. When carrying objects they must be carried close to your body.Where the load is awkwardly shaped, too heavy or unbalanced, use a mechanical aid eg: a trolley, a forklift, or alternatively ask for someone else to help you.

Plant and Equipment Plant and equipment, including mobile scaffold and electrical equipment supplied, is for the use of our employees and sub contractors only. Plant and equipment must be used in accordance with the Manufacturer’s Instructions, relevant Australian Standards and this Work Method Statement. Plant or equipment needing maintenance will be removed from site until it is repaired. Management or supervisor must be informed of any employee that is unsure of the safe use of plant and / or equipment. No guarding is to be removed from plant or equipment including grinders, saws scaffolding, etc.
