You&#8217;re also managing moisture, to avoid molds from growing, which eventually affects materials and the health of tenants. You&#8217;re preventing structures from being damaged by water over time., so it&#8217;s also a complicated type of task in itself.<\/p>\n<p>If the waterproofing job you&#8217;re doing checks out any of the categories under the high-risk construction work (HRCW), then you need to make a SWMS dedicated for it. Here are indicators:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If your waterproofing job is at least 2 meters above the ground<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re working underground (trench\/shaft\/hole) deeper than 1.5 meters<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re waterproofing in a confined space with limited airflow<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re dealing with hazardous chemicals (depending on the type of spray you&#8217;re using)<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re working near electrical risks (usually on rooftops near electrical cables)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It&#8217;s essential to check first if any of the categories under HRCW are applicable to your waterproofing job, ensure to identify first the hazards and risks, and if anything checks, you need to create your own SWMS.<\/p>\n\t<h3>What key components should be included in a Waterproofing SWMS?<\/h3>\n\t<p>There&#8217;s no mandated template or structure to follow for a SWMS for Waterproofing, for as long as the necessary indicated contents are included as per your local regulations\/standards\/guidelines. How you arrange your template may differ depending on the company policies, or just preference.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the key components in a Waterproofing SWMS:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Indicate how the waterproofing job falls under the high-risk construction work (HRCW) for it to necessary to have a SWMS<\/li>\n<li>Hazard\/risk assessment and control measures (make sure they are aligned with the HRCW; all potential hazards\/risks must be identified)<\/li>\n<li>How to do waterproofing safely: detailed step-by-step instructions to make sure the workers are safe, including the proper tools, PPEs, and emergency procedures<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t<h3>When should you review and update a SWMS?<\/h3>\n\t<p>Remember, SWMS are not one-time documents. They&#8217;re live &#8211; they to be reviewed regularly and updated whenever necessary. Here are reminders of when you need to stay on top of your Waterproofing SWMS:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Each waterproofing job means new methods, environment, materials, hazards, and risks. Don&#8217;t just copy-paste the contents from the previous waterproofing SWMS. Create a new one that reflects the conditions of your current waterproofing job &#8211; just use the old one as basis.<\/li>\n<li>If suddenly the working conditions change, like you&#8217;re going to be working at a different height or there are unknowingly hazardous chemicals to work around<\/li>\n<li>If an accident or a near miss unfortunately happens during the waterproofing work, then you need to review and update the SWMS to make your safety measures stricter.<\/li>\n<li>Naturally, you need to review and update your SWMS if the company policies or even the local laws change. SWMS should always be aligned to the latest industry standards and best practices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Vector-111-1.svg\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<h2>Other popular templates you can use and edit for free<\/h2>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Safe-work-method-statement-for-plumbing.jpg\" alt=\"Safe Work Method Statement for Plumbing\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<h4>Safe Work Method Statement for Plumbing<\/h4>\n\t<p>Ensure all of your qualified plumbers are also up to speed on the hazards and control measures in place to make plumbing activities safer.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/uk\/templates\/safety\/forms\/safe-work-method-statement-plumbing\/\" target=\"_self\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSee the template\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Safe-work-method-statement-for-carpentry.jpg\" alt=\"Safe Work Method Statement for Carpentry\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<h4>Safe Work Method Statement for Carpentry<\/h4>\n\t<p>Keep workers performing carpentry work safer, and all of your SWMS for carpentry records more structured using this template.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/uk\/templates\/safety\/forms\/safe-work-method-statement-carpentry\/\" target=\"_self\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSee the template\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Safe-work-method-statement-electrical-template.jpg\" alt=\"Safe Work Method Statement for Electrical Works\" width=\"1200\" height=\"360\" \/>\n\t<h4>Safe Work Method Statement for Electrical Works<\/h4>\n\t<p>Modify this electrical works SWMS template to suit your own type and approach to electrical works.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/uk\/templates\/safety\/forms\/safe-work-method-statement-electrical\/\" target=\"_self\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSee the template\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sitemate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Vector-112.svg\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<h3>This SWMS was generated with Dashpivot Software<\/h3>\n\t<p>This waterproofing SWMS is free and editable to use, and makes your SWMS much easier to manage.
