Review & Monitor

To ensure controls are implemented and monitored effectively:
• Toolbox /pre-work meetings will be undertaken
• Relevant persons will be consulted on hazards and contents of SWMS, work plans and other applicable information
• Control measures will be monitored throughout works:
o Spot checks
o Consultation
o Scheduled audits
• Corrective actions will be recorded and rectified in a timely manner SWMS will be reviewed and updated accordingly (in consultation with relevant persons)
Ensure all controls are reviewed as per the following:
• If controls fail to reduce risk adequately
• When changes to the workplace or work activity occur that create new / different risks where controls may no longer be effective
• New hazards identified
• After an incident involving work activities relevant to this SWMS
• During consultation with relevant persons indicate review is needed
• A Health and Safety Representative (HSR) requests a review in line with the requirements of the legislation.
