About this template

An aquatic facility emergency action plan for public pools, school and hotel pools, swim schools and hydrotherapy pools. It sets out the laws that apply to your type of pool, the supervision plan summary, the response to a drowning, a chlorine gas release or a lost child, and the drills and records that keep the plan effective. Use it as your pool emergency action plan and as the pool emergency procedures that WHS Regulation s 43 requires.

FAQ

Before you buy

Something else? Ask us and a real person will reply.

What format is it?

Microsoft Word. Edit it in Word, or free in Word for the web, and add your own logo and business details.

How do I get it after I pay?

Your download buttons appear as soon as checkout finishes, and the links are emailed to you. You can re-download from your account at any time.

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.

What if it isn't right for my job?

If it doesn't match its description or has a fault, tell us and we'll fix it. If you're still not happy, we'll refund you or give you store credit, your choice. Check the sample pages first, as we don't refund a change of mind.
