Their results showed that all the personnel have high level of awareness upon the falls.
A safety working method statement (SWMS) is a document that sets out the high risk construction work activities to be carried out at a workplace, the hazards arising from these activities and the measures to be put in place to control the risks. A study done by David (2012) on how the managers and workers interpret and use the safe work method statement in the Australian construction industry in order to explore if there was a gap between work as imagined and work as performed found that there is gap that exists between work as imagined and work as
