Flooring

The Flooring Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards and risks associated with the preparation of floor surfaces and installation of flooring in commercial or residential premises. The SWMS provides details of the health and safety precautions (including personal protective equipment) to be observed when preparing surfaces and laying flooring. (Note: Due to significant variations in Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) requirements between states and territories, reference to regulations, codes of practice and guidance material in each jurisdiction is recommended.) (See SWMS0437 – Silica – Respirable Crystalline (RCS)).
