About this template
A one-task permit for non-routine or higher risk work that no specific permit covers. It says plainly that Queensland law requires only the confined space entry permit by name, so this permit is the business’s own system, and it points to the specific permit or statement to use first. It works with your SWMS and risk assessment.
What Is Included In Our General Work Permit?
- The task, place, times, issuer and acceptor
- A first check for the specific permit or statement that applies instead
- Hazards ticked, controls written in hierarchy order and risk assessment links

- Emergency and rescue arrangements

Is it compliant with Queensland law?
It's written around Queensland's Work Health and Safety Act 2011 and Regulation 2011. Tailor it to your site, consult your workers and review it whenever conditions change; no template can guarantee compliance on its own.
