Glazing - Tinting Vehicles Trains

SWMS · SWMS-10638

  • 11 job steps
  • Version 3
  • Glazing
  • Reads on any phone

This SWMS gives a detailed guide to the safe methods for glazing and tinting vehicles and trains, covering the hazards and controls for workplace safety and compliance.

It takes your crew through each job step: planning with the rail network owner, training, arriving on site, assessing the maintenance area, working outdoors, the environment, housekeeping, manual tasks, window removal and replacement, completion and emergency response.

It suits businesses and contractors that glaze and tint vehicles and trains, particularly where the work is high-risk construction work: glazing professionals, vehicle maintenance teams, rail industry contractors, and safety officers and supervisors.

Written by SafetyDocs safety experts, who have been writing safety documents since 2004.
