This document has been generated as a guide for the Lend Lease Project Team to aid with the review of the
Subcontractors Safe Work Method Statements and Risk Assessments. This document sets out the minimum
requirements of the Lend Lease EHS Management system to ensure that Safe Work Method Statements are
reviewed against legislative and/or Lend Lease Global Minimum Requirements prior to use on site..
2.0 Instruction
The “SWMS Review Checklist” (Page 2 of LL Asia Safe Work Method Statement document) is used to review
both Lend Lease and Subcontractors’ SWMS.
Prior to commencing work on site, a written Safe Work Method Statement/s (SWMS) must be submitted to the
Lend Lease Project Team Member delegated responsible for the work area/trade/task (i.e. Foreman, Engineer,
etc). Every submitted SWMS shall be reviewed using the SWMS Review Checklist, and the requirements asked
for must be completed. If the SWMS does not meet these requirements, works should not be allowed to
commence.
The Lend Lease Project Team Member responsible for the work (i.e. Foreman, Engineer etc) should prepare and
sign off the SWMS Review Checklist to confirm this review has been completed. The SWMS should then be
reviewed and signed by an EHS representative. Finally, the Construction Manager (or their delegate) will review
the SWMS to check all issues have been considered and also sign off the SWMS Review Checklist. The SWMS
Register must then be filled in and updated with the details of the new SWMS.
As work progresses, ongoing verification of compliance to the SWMS must be done by Lend Lease
Designated Person(s), using the SWMS Review Checklist. The verification will confirm:
1. Work practices comply with SWMS
2. Observation of work practices show general compliance to SWMS but minor changes or a new revision is
required
3. Non-conformance to SWMS, issue non-compliance notice or SOR (Safety Observation Report) and rectify
situation
If minor changes are required to the SWMS, this can be marked up on the current revision, and a toolbox talk
conducted, to update employees of the changes. Major changes identified will require a new revision of
SWMS to be developed and submitted, a new SWMS Review Checklist must be completed, and employees
re-inducted into the new revision. Also update the SWMS Register.
The Lend Lease Project Team Member responsible for the work should witness the first activity on each
SWMS, when work commences, to confirm initial compliance.
If the Project team requires assistance, the designated EHS Manager will be available to assist in the review of
the documentation.
