Document Summary

This Safe Work Procedure outlines safety guidelines for concrete slab construction. Workers must wear appropriate PPE, including safety footwear, gloves, and high-visibility clothing. Pre-construction risk assessments, hazard identification, and safety planning are mandatory. Work areas must be secured with fences and barriers to prevent unauthorized access, and clear paths must be maintained for site access and machinery operation.

Specific tasks such as reinforcing, pouring, and finishing concrete require precautions to minimize injuries like strains, cuts, and exposure to harmful substances. Proper handling of tools, materials, and machinery is emphasized, along with environmental safety during cleanup and waste disposal. Adherence to these protocols ensures safe and efficient construction processes.
