Category overview
Roofing work represents one of the highest-risk activities in Australian construction, combining the serious hazards of working at heights with exposure to extreme weather conditions, heavy materials handling, and specialised equipment operation. Whether installing metal sheeting, laying tiles, removing existing roofing, or implementing edge protection systems, proper documentation and compliance with Work Health and Safety (WHS) regulations is mandatory. These Safe Work Method Statements provide comprehensive, legally compliant procedures for all roofing activities, ensuring worker safety and regulatory adherence across every phase of roof work in residential, commercial, and industrial construction environments.
