Demolition WHS Management Plan

Product Overview

The Demolition WHS Management Plan is a comprehensive, ready-to-use safety document designed specifically for demolition projects in Australia. It provides a clear, practical framework for managing work health and safety risks on small, medium and large demolition sites, from residential knock-downs through to complex commercial and industrial structures.

This professionally developed plan helps you meet your WHS duties by setting out how hazards will be identified, assessed and controlled, how workers and subcontractors will be consulted, and how critical activities such as structural demolition, hazardous materials removal and service isolation will be managed. It is structured to align with Australian WHS legislation, Codes of Practice and industry best practice, making it a valuable cornerstone of your safety documentation.

Key Features

  • Project-specific sections for scope, site details and key contacts
  • Detailed guidance on pre-demolition planning, including engineering assessments, service isolation and hazardous materials surveys
  • Structured risk management framework with a demolition-focused risk register template
  • Clear roles and responsibilities for managers, supervisors, subcontractors and workers
  • Comprehensive coverage of demolition methods, structural safety and exclusion zones
  • Integrated requirements for Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS) and high-risk construction work
  • Practical checklists for planning, PPE, consultation, emergency preparedness and structural safety
  • Templates for inductions, toolbox talks, inspections, incident corrective actions and plant registers.
