Australia (SWMS) example document — Tenancy 3 Commercial Fit-Out — 88 Latrobe Street, Melbourne. Client: Latrobe Holdings Pty Ltd. Site: 88 Latrobe Street, Tenancy 3, Melbourne, VIC 3000. Scope: Cat-B fit-out of an existing 220 m² ground-floor tenancy: demolition of partitions, new steel-stud partitioning, suspended grid ceiling, joinery, electrical and data first/second fix, painting and floor coverings. Works occur during occupied-building hours under a building-manager permit. SWMS prepared because HRCW (work > 2 m on scissor lifts and powered mobile plant) is involved.

Example output

A site-ready RAMS, structured

See how Riskora shapes your brief into a RAMS your client or site manager will accept — every section structured, edit anything before you send it.

Not a blank template

Why a RAMS template isn't enough today

A blank template still leaves every hazard, control, method step and emergency arrangement for you to write. Riskora structures a site-specific RAMS around the brief you paste — the sections principal contractors and site managers actually expect.

Inside the document

What your SWMS actually contains

Riskora builds a structured, client-facing document — not a generic AI paragraph. Every section is shaped around your job, your site and your team.

  • Hazards

    Task-specific hazards for the job, captured row by row — not a generic list pulled from an old SWMS.

  • Controls

    Control measures mapped to each hazard with residual risk scoring after controls are applied.

  • PPE

    PPE requirements tied to the activity and site, ready to brief to the team.

  • Method steps

    Step-by-step method statement structured around how the work is actually sequenced on site.

  • Emergency arrangements

    First aid, rescue plan, emergency contacts and site-specific escalation routes.

  • COSHH prompts

    Substance prompts when the work involves chemicals, dusts, fumes or sealants — flagged early, not missed at review.

  • Sign-off

    Operative sign-off captured against the document — names, dates and acknowledgement of the brief.

  • Version history

    Every change tracked so you can show what was issued, when, and which version the team signed.

  • Approval status

    Clear approval state on every document — draft, in review, approved, issued — visible across the team.

  • Audit trail

    Who created it, who reviewed it, who signed it. A complete trail you can hand to a principal contractor or auditor.

Before & after

From copied-and-pasted to site-specific

The reason SWMS get rejected is rarely the format — it's that the document is obviously generic. Riskora rebuilds it around this job, this site and this task.

Before

Generic template copied from an old job.

  • • Hazards and controls that don't match this site or task.
  • • Method steps written for a different sequence of work.
  • • No emergency arrangements specific to the location.
  • • Client flags it as generic and asks for a rewrite.
After

Site-specific document structured around this job, site and task.

  • • Hazards captured from the actual scope you pasted in.
  • • Method steps sequenced for how the work runs on site.
  • • Emergency arrangements and rescue plan tied to the location.
  • • Approved internally, briefed to the team, signed off and stored.
