3. Risk Assessment
The hazards and risks related to projects undertaken by Woollam will be assessed by the Project Manager or
their delegate in conjunction with the Regional HSE Coordinator or their delegate and recorded in Section 2
Project Hazard / Risk Register of the WHS Management Plan for each Project. The WHS Management Manual
will also identify legislative criteria relevant to the hazards and risks and relevant to the State in which the
project is located.
If required, the Site Manager, in consultation with the Regional HSE Coordinator, shall conduct a formal risk
assessment of any task, and shall record the results on a Risk Assessment. When conducting this risk
assessment, it will take in the likelihood and consequence of injury, illness and injury occurring and reference
any available information on the hazard including records of incidents, illnesses, and disease. Some reference
areas would include the safety statistics spreadsheets on the server and relevant authorities’ websites.
Identified risks will be reduced to So Far as Reasonably Practicable (SFARP) by the application of control
measures.
SFARP should not be above Moderate.
In the event of a task having a level of risk, where no matter what controls are put in place, it remains a High
Risk, practical risk control priorities such as, Work Permits, increased inspections or supervision will be
implemented.
Recommended control measures identified from the Risk Assessment, will be implemented in the form of Safe
Work Method Statements.

Risk
Control measures shall be selected according to the hierarchy of controls. In order of preference, these are:
1. Elimination - completely remove the hazard, or risk of exposure to the hazard. e.g. removal of a noisy
machine from an otherwise quiet area or removing the need for stressful actions and movements by
redesigning the work area or workflow.
2. Substitution – replacing one substance or activity with a less hazardous one. e.g. using a non-
flammable solvent in the place of a flammable one or replacing an unstable machine with a stable
one.
3. Isolation - can the hazard be isolated from the worker or the worker from the hazard?
4. Engineering – control the risk through engineering controls such as using enclosures, guarding, local
exhaust ventilation, or automation. e.g. installing guards on machinery
5. Administration - policies and procedures for safe work practices e.g. Procedures to be followed for
use of hazardous chemicals or processes, and lockout procedures.
6. Personal Protective Equipment – PPE should only be used where other measures are not practicable.
e.g. respirators, ear plugs.

7. Health Surveillance and
Exposure Monitoring
The purpose of the Health Surveillance and exposure monitoring is to detect at an early stage, any adverse
health effects of employees identified conducting ‘High Risk’ activities, or areas of work which have certain
significant hazards.
This program aims to:
• Contribute to the detection of hazards and assessment of risk.
• Raise the general awareness of the adverse effects of exposure to hazardous materials and harmful
work processes.
• Prevent and detect at an early stage any adverse health effect on employees.
• Assist in the evaluation of risk control measures and
• Provide necessary resourcing.
Prior to works commencing on a project Woollam Constructions will conduct a Project Hazard/Risk Assessment
which will be conducted by the Regional HSE co-ordinator who holds a formal OHS qualification cert 4 or
above. In circumstances where a high or extreme risk is identified an occupation hygienist with formal training
will be engaged to provide exposure monitoring.
Woollam Constructions conducts a range of activities / tasks that may potentially expose employees to sources
of harm (hazards).
Any employee identified as using or exposed to substances listed in the WHS Regulations Schedule 14 is
required to participate in the Health Monitoring Program. Concerns may be discussed with the Site Manager,
Site Health and Safety Adviser or the Regional Health and Safety Coordinator.
In accordance with Australian Safety and Compensation Council’s guidelines, Medical Practitioners or formally
qualified Occupational Hygienist will be appointed by Woollam Constructions, to assist with the Health
Monitoring program and any associated medical monitoring.
All Woollam Constructions’ employees who are frequently required to use personal protective equipment to
protect the worker from the risk of hearing loss associated with noise that exceeds the exposure standard for
noise will be provided with audiometric testing within three months of commencing with Woollam
Constructions and at two yearly intervals thereafter. This will managed by a registered health professional
which specialises in this testing.
Woollam Constructions shall ensure all workers carrying out asbestos and other works which risk exposure to
chemicals contained in Schedule 14 of the WHS Reg 2011 related workers will be provided with Health
Monitoring prior to undertaking the said work. The Health Monitoring will cover substances listed under
Schedule 14 of the WHS Reg 2011 and will consider the worker’s demographic, medical and occupational
history, records of the worker’s personal exposure and include a physical examination of the worker. Woollam
Constructions will ensure that this Health Monitoring will be carried out by or under the supervision of a
registered medical practitioner with experience in health monitoring or a formally trained Occupational
Hygienist.
Exposure to RCS will be monitored onsite using the RPE / PPE usage record found on Procore. Exposure levels
included and exceeding 30 exposure instances in 365 days will trigger Health Monitoring.

24. Consultation, Cooperation
and Coordination
Under the current legislation there is no requirement to establish a safety representative or safety committee,
unless:
• In relation to a health & safety representative – a request is made by a worker.
• In relation to a health & safety committee – a request is made by 5 or more workers or a health &
safety representative.
At the beginning of the project Woollam Construction will assess the need for workgroups, safety
representatives and/or safety committee based upon the size and associated risks of the project. If there is a
requirement for a safety representative, workgroups will be formed, nomination will be requested, and an
election will be arranged (if needed). The safety representative will be provided with the relevant training to
perform this role.
The primary function of a Safety Committee is to assist cooperation between employer, principal contractor,
and worker in developing and carrying out measures to ensure health and safety at a workplace. Workers will
be consulted and given the opportunity to be involved with OHS issues and decisions.
All Safety Committee Meeting will be recorded on the Safety Committee Meeting Minutes.
Consultation occurs in reference to, but is not limited to the following topics discussed in Safety Committee
meetings;
• Legislative Changes
• Objectives and Targets
• Training and education
• Reviewed / Amended Safe Work Method Statements
• Incidents
• Progress on Action Items
• Audits / Inspections
• Hazard Reports
• General Business
The Minutes from Safety Committee Meetings will be posted on Site Safety Notice boards for perusal by the
workers at the workplace.
Issues raised during Toolbox Talks and Safety Committee Meetings, that cannot be resolved at a Site Level, will
be communicated to the Regional HSE Coordinator for resolution. If a resolution is not achieved, the Regional
HSE Coordinator will raise the issues with the Manager HSE who will ensure it will be discussed during the
Leadership Team Meeting for resolution. The results of the resolution at the Leadership Team Meeting will be
communicated to the relevant Regional HSE Coordinators who in turn will notify the site where the issue was
raised by the completing and participating in a toolbox talk with all workers to discuss the results. The Regional
HSE Coordinator will ensure the issues raised are addressed in the prescribed timeframe.

32. Temporary Works Register
The purpose of the Temporary Works Register is to track and ensure that all temporary works are installed,
inspected/checked, maintained, and dismantled as per the design without incident or injury to workers or
members of the public. This document is to be used in conjunction with the Project Hazard/Risk Register.
The Temporary Works Register is to be created at the beginning of a project after the Project Start Up
Meeting and in conjunction with the site-specific amendment of the Project Hazard/Risk Register to identify
temporary works on the project. Risk assessment of temporary works will be conducted in the Project Hazard
Risk/Register and managed as described.
The Temporary Works Register will be maintained and populated by a person nominated in the Project Start
Up Meeting. The document will be reviewed on a weekly and monthly basis by Regional HSE Co-ordinator, Site
Advisor and / or Site Engineer. This applies to all temporary works that are designed and executed on Woollam
projects. This includes:
• Earthworks (e.g. trenches, excavations, temporary slopes, piling platforms)
• Structures (e.g. formwork, falsework, propping, façade retention, needling, shoring, edge protection,
screens, scaffolding, site hoarding and signage, covered walkways, gantries/overhead protection,
crane landing platforms, site fencing, amenities)
• Equipment/plant foundations (e.g. tower crane bases, crane and hoist ties, groundworks to provide
suitable base for plant erection such as mobile plant and piling rigs, covers for pit holes / penetrations
/ risers / shafts, braces for masonry walls)
Temporary works designs will be categorised to indicate the complexity/simplicity of the specific temporary
works structure and the potential risk based on the nature of the works, site conditions, and environment of
the work area. Categories include:
• Low Complexity – Temporary Works which generally require no design analysis
• Medium Complexity – Temporary Works comprising of proven design solutions and materials
• High Complexity – Temporary works comprised of complex/mixed systems or bespoke solutions
All items of temporary works identified in the Temporary Works Register shall be assigned a competent
person or Company who is responsible for the checking of the design and/or specification of each item. The
independence of the design checker to the designer shall be as set out using the Design Check Categories 0, 1,
2 and 3 and as agreed with Woollam. See below table:
