About this template
An editable Excel register of the safe work method statements your subcontractors give you. Record the subcontractor, the SWMS and the high risk construction work it covers, when it was received and reviewed, and the outcome. A check column flags work that started before a SWMS was received, and a keep-until date follows the WHS Regulation rule for keeping a SWMS. The law does not require a SWMS register: it helps you show you have met the duties that do exist.
What Is Included In Our Subcontractor SWMS Register?

Make it yours
Open it in Microsoft Word or Excel. Add your logo, business details, site and job information, and adjust it to how the work is done.
Brief your crew
Talk it through with the workers doing the job, have them sign on, and keep it on site. Review it whenever the job or conditions change.
What format is it?

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, we'll fix it, and if we can't, we'll refund you (or give you store credit if you'd prefer). Check the sample pages first, as we don't refund a change of mind.
