The SHAPE Minimum Standards (SMS) sets out our minimum expectations for all contractors working on SHAPE managed sites for activities set out in the document that the contractor intends to perform. As minimum standards, they are exactly that; the absolute minimum SHAPE expects to be considered and implemented by the relevant trades in performing an activity or process, based on best practice principles. These are generally over and above accepted industry standards whilst maintaining alignment with SHAPE third party certified procedures, Australian Standards, Legislation and Codes of Practice. The SMS has been developed to provide prompt and easy access to the required information via your mobile device. The navigation menu allows for rapid identification and access to the desired subject matter, with each SMS identifying key requirements and example images providing simplistic instructions. Intended as a guidance resource, the SHAPE Minimum Standards material is being made available to assist contractors in developing their SWMS and then in carrying out a referenced activity. Please note the contractor remains solely responsible for developing, managing and carrying out its required package of work in a safe manner. We hope the SMS becomes a useful resource tool for you.
