Construction Work.
Refer to this web page: https://legislation.nsw.gov.au/view/html/inforce/current/sl-2017-0404#ch.6. Use the info on this web page to fill in the missing words:

Part 6.1 Preliminary: 289 Meaning of construction work.

(1) In this Chapter, construction work means any work carried out in connection with the ___ construction ___, _____ alteration ____, conversion, fitting-out, commissioning, renovation, repair, maintenance, refurbishment, demolition, decommissioning or dismantling of a _____ structure ___.

Go to this web page: https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/your-industry/construction/construction/general-requirements-accordians/prepare-safe-work-method-statement. Use info on this web page to fill in the missing words:

Take into account all relevant matters, including circumstances that may affect the work and work health and safety management plans that may be prepared in connection with a construction project. If the SWMS is not followed, stop work immediately and only recommence when the statement can be followed. The SWMS must be understandable to those who use it and should outline:

the ____ work _____ involved

the _____ hazards _________ and ______ risk ________

the ___ control ___________ measures and how they will be implemented, monitored and reviewed

Give a copy of the SWMS to the principal contractor before the work commences. Keep a copy available for inspection and readily accessible to workers until the work is completed, or for at least two years if there is a notifiable incident. The SWMS must be reviewed and, if necessary, revised when control measures are changed after a notifiable incident.

_________________________________________________________________________________

The Safe Wok Method Statement.
A sample of the SafeWork NSW SWMS template appears below, Note the Headings on each of the three columns:

All workers must read and sign Safe Work Method Statements. This is a SafeWork NSW requirement:

Because work methods change (possibly with the introduction of new technology) and because workers may wish to suggest improved work or safety strategies, there is a need to review SWMSs. The above SafeWork NSW pdf emphasises this. Note the extract below:

This SafeWork NSW pdf that introduces the SWMS also lists the high risk construction work where the SWMS is mandatory. Because the SWMS provides documented evidence of Risk Management plans and the acknowledgement of all workers of the steps required to work safely, many organisations mandate the use of SWMSs for other work activities not regarded as high risk by SafeWork NSW. You therefore need to familiarise yourself with SWMSs and how to complete them.

SafeWork NSW penalties also encourage PCBUs to implement very effective safe systems of work and to document them. This is another reason why PCBUs may require workers to adhere to SWMSs. The current fine for a PCBU in breach of Sections 31 or 32 of the WHS Act extends to 3465 penalty units x $102.95 which equals $356,722. Fines against workers tent to be lower.

https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/legal-obligations/legislation/accordians/increases-to-penalty-provisions-work-health-and-safety-amendment-review-act-2020-schedule-2-consequential-amendments-to-the-whs-act

Go to this web page: https://legislation.nsw.gov.au/view/html/inforce/current/act-2011-010#sec.33

Scroll to Division 5 Offences and Penalties. Read Note 33 – Category 3 Offences. Assume an individual worker (not a PCBU) commits a Category 3 offence. How many Penalty Units apply?

A person commits a Category 3 offence if:

(a) the person has a health and safety duty, and

(b) the person fails to comply with that duty.

Maximum penalty: (a) in the case of an offence committed by an individual (other than as a person conducting a business or undertaking or as an officer of a person conducting a business or undertaking): _________ penalty units.

The 4 figure for a Penalty Unit was $100 but the NSW Government has linked Penalty Units to the CPI and this will cause an annual increase. Assume that a Penalty Unit is now $$102.95. Multiply the number of Penalty Units by $$102.95 to determine the fine for a Category 3 breach of the NSW WHS Act.

____________________________________________________

The following page illustrates a SWMS designed to enable an optical fibre cable to be safely terminated into a Fibre-Breakout-Out-Tray (FOBOT). This worked example and the MSDS info will help you to complete an SWMS exercise later in this paper. It involves the use of cement. A few points when preparing to write a SWMS:

Start by noting the task steps in their correct sequence on a separate sheet.

Review docs such as Instruction Manuals, Codes of Practice and MSDS Sheets etc to ensure you identify all possible hazards.

Before you complete the SWMS exercise (that involves the use of cement) later in this paper, read this: https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/resource-library/hazardous-chemicals/crystalline-silica/crystalline-silica-general-fact-sheet

A blank SWMS Sheet appears on the next page. To familiarise yourself with the SWMS, complete this sheet to provide a Step-by-Step process to enable fencing wire entangled around a lawnmower cutting disk to be safely removed.

MSDS Sheets.

After an electrician fixes the electrical pipe and wall boxes into the chased wall, your task is to mix mortar using sand and cement to grout the cavity around the pipe. You must produce an effective SWMS before commencing this activity. Before using any substances, you must obtain the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) from its manufacturer for each substance that you will use. To perform this activity, you will need to study the MSDS for cement. This MSDS can be found here:

https://www.cementaustralia.com.au/sites/default/files/2018-07/CASDS23%2BConcrete%2BMix.pdf

https://www.ohsrep.org.au/silica_e6w4qije5l8wpqjctec0iw

Also consider the Hierarchy of Risk Controls. Refresh your memory: https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0006/446028/hierarchy-of-controls-SW09182.pdf.

A number of sections in MSDS contain critical information that needs to be included in our SWMSs. Study this MSDS sheet located at the web page above to complete the table below.

MSDS SHEET SECTION No:

SECTION HEADING.

Identification of the Material and Supplier.

Now list the Section Nos that contain critical info that needs to be included in a SWMS to be used before grouting around the pipe that you chased into the wall:

Keep all of this info for the future SWMS.

Construction Site Access.
Construction Projects must be controlled by a Principle Contractor. Refer to this pdf to answer the following questions: https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0014/52151/Construction-work-COP.pdf

What is Construction work? Give a brief description:

____ According to the WHS Regulation any work carried out in connection with the construction, alteration, fitting out, commissioning , renovation, repair, maintenance , and refrubrishment, demolition, decommissioning or dismantling of structure. It can be commercial, civil or housing

___

What is Construction Project? Give a brief description:

_____ A construction project is the project that involves construction work where the cost of construction works $250,000 or more. A construction project covers the activities in volved in the construction work over the point where the construction project is handed over to the person who commissioned it. The handover usually takes place at the practical completion of the project, for example when the house is considered habitable and the buyer or owner takes possession ______

When is a Principle Contractor required?

_______ Each time when we get construction project Principle Contractor is required. And there can be only one principle contractor for each construction project . __________________________________________________________________________

The Principle Contractor has significant WHS obligations. Refer to the Construction Work COP and find the relevant paragraph to fill in the missing words:

Although a principal contractor or builder may not be present on site, they must still ensure

the work is being carried out __safely____. The principal contractor or builder should check the

subcontractors __ work ____ _ procedure ___ and any __ SWMS ____ (if relevant) to ensure risks associated with the work are addressed and then __ visit __ the site as necessary to verify the work is being carried out __ safely __. In every case, individuals are expected to take reasonable _ care __ for their own __ safety ___ and that their acts do not adversely affect the health and safety of others.

When a worker arrives at a Construction Site seeking access to perform work, it is typical to be met by a person in charge of site security who will direct the worker to the site administration office where qualifications and accreditations will be checked. Workers will require three different WHS qualifications before they are granted access to the construction site. One essential qualification required before entering a construction site is the White Card more correctly known as General Construction Induction qualification. What are the other two qualifications required? Refer to this web page pdf to identify them and their purpose and complete the table below:

https://www.safeworkaustralia.gov.au/system.pdf

White Card

White Card training provides workers with information relating to general WHS issues. The need for WHS. Risk Management. How to complete a SWMS. etc.

____________________________________________________________________________

Element 1: Prepare to use routine equipment, plant and technologies.
You are studying to obtain the competency relating to Code UEENEEE141A. The title for this code is:

Use of routine equipment/plant/technologies in an energy sector environment . When you researched the topic of Codes of Practice above you would have discovered and downloaded the following pdf: https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0019/52156/Managing-the-risks-of-plant-in-the-workplace-COP.pdf

Note that the word plant appears in both the title for the UEENEEE141A competency and also in the Code of Practice. What is meant by the word plant ? Refer to p. 5 in the code. You will see Clause 1.1. Heres an extract:

Note that Power Tools are included as plant . Electricians use many electrical tools on a daily basis. These tools are capable of causing severe injuries if misused. Misuse includes the use of tools contrary to Manufactures Instructions or contrary to accepted safe practices within the industry. The removal of a safety guard is certainly an unsafe practice. The failure to wear the required Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is also an unsafe practice. Using a power saw or an angle grinder in a single handed manner is also unsafe. These are a few examples that must be considered when formulating the WHS policies to be enforced in the workplace.

1.1: Instructions in the use of routine equipment, plant or technologies are communicated and confirmed to ensure clear understanding.
Assume that you are a Licensed Electrical Contractor and that you have just employed an apprentice. In this instance, SafeWork NSW will no doubt regard you as the PCBU. You are about to issue a work task to your apprentice. But before you do, you need to ensure that your apprentice has been fully trained to the extent that this person is able to perform the work safely and this means without causing any injury. The task to be completed includes the use of a hammer drill to chisel out concrete between two cuts in a concrete wall. Refer to the RHS photo:

What checks will you make to ensure that this hammer drill is safe to use?

____________________________________________________________________________

When you check power tools to ensure that they are safe to use, dont forget to check that they have been tested and tagged to meet SafeWork NSW standards: Study this web page to answer the following question: https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/hazards-a-z/electrical-and-power/electrical-inspection-and-testing

Who is permitted by SafeWork NSW to test and tag electrical equipment for use on work sites including construction sites?

_________________________________________________________________________________

The photo below shows the use of a hammer drill on a construction site and this means that the tool must be tested and tagged every month . After an electrical tool passes the required safety test, it is tagged with a colour coded tag. The chart below shows the tag colours used in NSW:

Where will you obtain instructions for the safe use of the hammer drill illustrated in the photo?

____________________________________________________________________________

To house power cables.

wires

1.6 Schedule of work including practices for working safely are confirmed in accordance with instructions and requirements.
Assume that you are the supervisor organising for this cutting and chasing work to be completed. The work is at an industrial complex to be constructed of precast concrete walls. Refer to the following pdf and search for info on Cutting and Chasing precast concrete walls.

https://www.ccaa.com.au/imis_prod/documents/Library%20Documents/CCAA%20Technical%20Publications/CCAA%20Guides/CCAAGUIDE2001-T54-CPH5-9-TBR.pdf

What does this pdf state relating to Cutting and Chasing precast concrete walls?

_________________________________________________________________________________

Given that this pdf appears to have no name or date or claim to authority, what document will you access to verify the CCAA extract above and to ensure adherence to Australian Law? Fill in the missing word to answer this question: The ___________ Code of Australia. Refer to the following:

https://www.sa.gov.au/topics/planning-and-property/land-and-property-development/building-rules-regulations-and-information/the-building-code-of-australia

Now answer the following questions:

Who will you need to liaise with to enable this work to proceed?

____________________________________________________________________________

What essential work activities must be completed before arranging for the walls to be cut and chased for power pipe and cabling?

____________________________________________________________________________

What tools and materials need to be gathered for issue to the worker who completes this task?

____________________________________________________________________________

Assume you are undertaking the task and your electrician / supervisor instructs you to complete the Risk Management activity required for the task of rendering over the pipe after it has been chased into the wall. L:ist the three Risk Management steps:

1: ______________________________________________________________________________

2: ______________________________________________________________________________

3: ______________________________________________________________________________

Before commencing the work, what action will you take if you encounter unclear work tasks?

____________________________________________________________________________

What action will you take if you discover hazards that are beyond your control? Eg: Assume that the channel extends up a wall to a height of 3m. Address this and all other possible hazards.

__________________________________________________________________________________

You previously studied an MSDS Sheet for cement power. You have adhered to your electrician / supervisors instructions to fix the AS/NZS3000 specified pipe into the wall to the correct depth etc. You are now required to complete a SWMS that is capable of keeping you safe as you mix mortar and grout around the pipe fixed into the channel in the concrete wall.

Use the blank SWMS on the following page to complete this exercise. There is a spare SWMS on Page 22 in case extra room is required. Also feel free to construct youre a replica SWMS using a spreadsheet if youd prefer to avoid hand writing.

Think carefully about this exercise to ensure that you are able to perform the work safely. For example, omitting PPE mandated on an MSDS Sheet would be difficult to explain if a supervisor or an Inspector dropped unannounced and started asking questions. Your SWMS must be capable of keeping all workers safe. SafeWork NSW Inspectors might use an injured worker as evidence of an unsatisfactory SWMS or Risk Management activity or WHS Management Plan.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Think about the task of mixing concrete and working from ground level to a height of 3m to grout around the pipe. Study the information on this web page:

https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/transaction/apply-high-risk-work-licence

Now describe how SafeWork NSW legislation will impact upon the use of specialist equipment to complete this job:

_________________________________________________________________________________

What steps might the supervisor take to enable the worker to complete this grouting work, taking into consideration the specialised equipment that will be required to complete this task, and the fact that staff may not possess the licence required to operate this equipment? Also list possible options open to the supervisor:

_________________________________________________________________________________

Having considered all of these issues, now produce a SWMS that will enable staff to grout around a pipe into a channel chased into a masonry wall from 1400mm above floor height to the top of the wall at a height of 3m. Remember – use the extra SWMS blank is if extra lines are required.

Element 2: Use routine equipment, plant and technologies.
2.1 OHS policies and procedures and safe work practices are followed to eliminate or minimise incidents.
Assume that you are the experienced worker on this job site and that you are supervising two workers with very little work experience. They have their White Cards and they have been trained in the required work procedures including the safe use of tools to be used. Explain how you will monitor and document compliance to WHS rules and your process to escalate your intervention if workers fail to comply:

_________________________________________________________________________________

When the apprentice attempts the work task for the first time (and maybe a time or two after that). what level of supervision will you provide to ensure the work is performed in a safe manner?

____________________________________________________________________________

Before the apprentice commences work, what safety document must be studied and signed?

____________________________________________________________________________

Your apprentice might encounter a situation not listed on the SWMS. What policy will you insist upon in such a circumstance?

____________________________________________________________________________

After your apprentice has demonstrated an acceptable competency level, how will you ensure that they are adhering to the SWMS and other safety policies?

____________________________________________________________________________

2.2 Routine equipment, plant or technologies are used in accordance with schedule of work to ensure work is completed in an agreed time, to a quality standard and with a minimum of waste.
Assume that your job is small. The length of the cut and chase is 1.5m. What common tools could be used? And what consumables are required?

_________________________________________________________________________________

Now assume multiple cut and chase locations throughout a factory complex. What specialist equipment might be used to aid in the timely completion of the job and to meet Project Management Milestones? This web page should help:
