National version · editable Word doc

What this is

A Job Safety Analysis covering Plastering as a whole, rather than a single task. It breaks the work into 8 steps, including handle materials, mix plaster and render and fix board and apply render, and sets out the hazards, the risk rating and the control measures for each one.

It's an editable Word document, so you add your company and site details, check the hazards and controls against the actual job, and get your crew to sign on before work starts. New to it? See how a JSA differs from a SWMS.

The steps this JSA covers

  1. 1 Plan, prepare and confirm competency
  2. 2 Set up power and inspect tools

  4. 4 Mix plaster and render
  5. 5 Fix board and apply render
  6. 6 Work at height and on stilts

Who this is for

Used across Plastering. Suits contractors, subcontractors and crews who carry out Plastering as part of their work.

When you'll be asked for one

Head contractors, builders and clients commonly ask for a JSA before you start on site. It is also worth having on your own jobs, as a record that the task was worked through with the crew before anyone started.

What's in the document

Editable Word file with fields for your company, site address, date, personnel and crew sign-on. The steps, hazards, risk ratings and controls are already drafted, so you review and adjust rather than start from a blank page.

Common questions

Is a JSA the same as a SWMS for Plastering?

No. A SWMS is required for high-risk construction work under the WHS Regulations. Plastering does not usually fall into those categories on its own, though principal contractors and builders often ask for documentation before you get on site.

What does this Plastering JSA cover?

It works through 8 job steps, including handle materials, mix plaster and render, fix board and apply render and work at height and on stilts. Each step lists the hazards for that step, an initial risk rating, the control measures and the residual risk once those controls are in place.

Is this JSA state-specific?

JSAs are national. Our SWMS are written per state because the Act and regulator differ, but a JSA is a risk-assessment tool rather than a state-legislated document.

Can I edit it and add my logo?

It is an editable Word document. Add your company details and logo, then adjust the steps, hazards and controls to match the actual Plastering job in front of you.

Who fills it out and who signs it?

Whoever is running the job completes the site-specific fields and reviews the controls against the actual conditions. Everyone doing the work signs on before it starts, and the document includes a worker sign-on sheet for that.
