The Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) for Elevated Work Platforms (EWPs) outlines the procedures and safety controls required when operating boom lifts, scissor lifts, and other mobile elevating work platforms on residential, commercial, and industrial sites across Australia. It ensures all tasks are performed in accordance with Australian Work Health and Safety (WHS) legislation, relevant Codes of Practice, and manufacturer instructions.
Key focus areas include conducting a pre-start site inspection to identify ground conditions, overhead hazards, and exclusion zones, as well as verifying operator competency and EWP service records. It highlights the correct selection of an EWP for the task, pre-operational safety checks, and the use of fall arrest systems where required.
This SWMS also addresses maintaining clear communication between operators and spotters, ensuring safe load limits are not exceeded, and implementing controls for working near powerlines or in high-wind conditions. Emergency procedures for platform rescue, safe refuelling/recharging practices, and traffic management around the work zone are also included.
By following this SWMS, workers can minimise the risk of falls, tip-overs, collisions, entrapment, and other hazards associated with elevated work. It promotes compliance with WHS requirements, reduces the likelihood of incidents, and ensures safe, efficient, and controlled operation of EWPs.
