This SWMS offers a structured approach to safely managing inflatable amusement devices at events or worksites. It covers every step so that safety requirements are met, risks are minimised and both operators and patrons are protected.

It takes you through planning, training and competency, maintaining the log book, manual handling, transporting the device, parking and unloading, assessing on-site conditions, setting up, operating the device, dismantling, emergency response and incident management, with risk assessments and control measures for each step.

It suits event organisers, amusement companies and any business that operates inflatable devices and needs to manage workplace risks and meet health and safety laws.

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