Just found this great example of a Construction Site Safety Plan from Noel Arnold. Download Here SafetyPlans.com.au are currently offering a free guide to creating an OHS compliant Site Specific Safety Plan for your construction project. QBUILD provide this comprehensive construction safety plan to be followed by all personnel working on site. QBuild Constrction Safety Plan (1503). Their workplace health and safety standards can be downloaded from here:

QBuild also recommened the Subby Pack Contractor Management Tool  from Workcover NSW. Download Here: Subby Pack (625) Some useful info from QLD DEIR

Construction safety plans

A construction safety plan can assist principal contractors to manage their workplace health and safety obligations. A principal contractor must prepare a construction safety plan before construction work starts. The plan must state:

  • workplace address
  • name and address of the principal contractor
  • principal contractor’s ABN
  • whether there is a WHS committee
  • whether there is a WHS Officer appointed
  • expected start date
  • estimated duration of the work
  • type of construction
  • plant provided for common use
  • site rules
  • the risks the principal contractor is obliged to manage
  • proposed control measures for the risks
  • how the controls will be implemented
  • arrangements for monitoring and reviewing controls
  • emergency procedures
  • public safety strategies.

In several countries there is legislation in place which specifies the requirement of having construction safety plan. The legislation can be of national level or lower level, it generally depends upon the country.
