Renovation and Extension Site Safety Management Plan

A WHS management plan written for renovations and extensions, laid out so every item the WHS Regulation requires of a principal contractor has its own part. It suits builders and renovators working on occupied homes and small buildings, on projects where the construction work costs $250,000 or more, and builders who want a site safety plan for smaller jobs. It follows a renovation in order: surveying the old building, asbestos, services isolation, strip-out, partial demolition and temporary support, falls and roofs, and keeping the household safe. It points to your policies, procedures, forms and registers by name instead of repeating them.

What Is Included In Our Renovation and Extension Site Safety Management Plan?
