Why Do You Need a SWMS in New South Wales?

Under NSW WHS law, a SWMS is required before any high-risk construction work (HRCW) begins. The principal contractor must ensure a SWMS is prepared and followed for all 19 categories of HRCW defined in the WHS Regulation 2017, Part 6.3.

Fines for Non-Compliance

Failure to prepare a SWMS for HRCW in NSW can result in fines of up to $6,000 for individuals and $30,000 for businesses. SafeWork NSW inspectors actively check for SWMS compliance on construction sites.
