Fibre Cement Sheet Cladding Method Statement
Workplace Health and Safety has conducted a comprehensive hazard analysis for fibre cement sheet cladding, e.g. eave sheet installation with risk controls developed for identified hazards per risk controls hierarchy.
Assess and review WHS practices in the workplace to control risk
WHS consultation to identify potential hazards with how to install fibre cement sheet cladding
Risk assessment to identify workplace safety hazards and risks likely to result in serious bodily injury or death
Health and safety planning for fibre cement sheet installation, e.g. minimise risks through the planning process
WHS consultation and participation processes ensure adequate health and safety communication
Workplace environmental hazards, e.g. working in hazardous areas, working at heights
Trip hazards in the workplace likely to result in slips trips and falls injuries
Implementation of controls for fibre cement sheet installation, e.g. isolation of hazards and services for electrical equipment in hazardous areas
Safety instructions for workers to manage risks
Method to minimise risk when measuring to mark fibre cement sheet cladding to be cut
Tools and equipment used to install and fix fibre cement sheet, e.g. fibre cement sheet cladding
Cutting tools to cut fibre cement sheet materials, e.g. fibre cement shears, fibre cement sheet cutter, HEPA equipped circular, wet saw
Hazard controls for cutting fibre cement sheet materials and cleaning of slurry residue, fibre cement materials may result in silica dust exposure
Fit fibre cement sheet cladding per construction drawings
Secure fibre cement sheet cladding per building code of practice, fixings per construction drawings and specifications
Working at height on ladders, mobile scaffold and elevated work platforms when undertaking fibre cement sheet installation
Contact with energised electrical equipment resulting in electrocution death, electrical shock and potential injuries from electrical shock
Electrical spotter to warn persons working in the vicinity of energised electrical equipment, e.g. electrical hazards
Hazardous chemicals used in connection with fibre cement sheet installation, e.g. liquid nails
Hazardous manual tasks in connection with the installation of fibre cement sheet cladding
Personal protective equipment, e.g. goggles for eye protection, PPE working at height
Health and safety training for workers, e.g. carpentry training for the installation of fibre cement sheet materials
Housekeeping at workplace per housekeeping policy and procedures
Legislative and regulatory requirements for compliance with WHS legislation, e.g. health and safety construction regulations, code of practice construction work and workplace standards
Monitoring controls, e.g. assessment and review the effectiveness of control measures
Carpentry tasks and activities in connection with the fibre cement sheet installation
