Noise Control
Noise levels near or above the threshold limit value of 85dBa could be generated at various times throughout the work. KHODR CIVIL PTY LTD will
identify these potentially harmful noise levels when or before they occur and if they cannot be eliminated require those carrying out the work and those in the
near vicinity to the work and impacted by the noise to wear approved hearing protection.
KHODR CIVIL PTY LTD will use one or a combination of the hierarchy of hazard controls where possible to reduce the noise levels and use PPE as a final
protective measure.
KHODR CIVIL PTY LTD will supply their employees with hearing protection and provide training in its proper use, fitting, wearing, storage, care and
maintenance. Records of issue and training will be maintained by KHODR CIVIL PTY LTD in the appropriate registers, kept on site and made available for
inspection on request by the Principal Contractor.

The general rule of thumb for wearing Hearing Protection is when noise levels require you to raise your voice to be heard by someone standing with you, then
Hearing Protection is needed.
Hazardous Substances
All hazardous substances to be used during the works under this SWMS will be notified to the Principal Contractor prior to being brought on site and a current
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) will be provided by KHODR CIVIL PTY LTD .
A register of hazardous substances in use on site shall be created and maintained in an up-to-date condition on site at a central location. Individual MSDS will
be available to those using the hazardous substances at the point of use.
All employees who will use, store, transport, decant or label hazardous substances will be trained in the content of the MSDS.
KHODR CIVIL PTY LTD will supply their employees with PPE and Safety equipment and train them in its proper use, fitting, wearing storage, care,
cleaning and maintenance.
KHODR CIVIL PTY LTD site manager and supervisor will monitor the use of hazardous substances and the appropriate PPE and safety equipment.
Working at Heights
Working at heights involves working from scaffolding, ladders, step ladders, elevating work platforms and from roofs or high ground where the person
carrying out the work can fall 2 metres or greater.
Ladders are not work platforms and must not be used as one.
More detailed information can be found in the relevant sections of this SWMS dealing with the work steps that require work to be carried out at height.
Where an elevated work platform is used to access a roof or other work area where the worker can fall 2 metres or more, the person leaving the EWP to access
the other area must wear a harness with double lanyard and have at least one lanyard attached to an approved anchor point at all times.
Working and walking backwards when working at heights greater than 2 metres should be avoided at all times.
