One Inspection Away From a $50,000 Fine

Every tradie doing high-risk work without proper SWMS is taking this risk. Every single job.

$50,000+
Fine for non-compliance
Per individual. Per incident.
2-4 hours
Creating one SWMS
From scratch. Every time.
$600
Your time wasted
Per document at $150/hr.
Every job
New site = new SWMS
Can't reuse old ones.

No SWMS? Work stops immediately. Principal contractor bans you from site.

Incident without documentation? Insurance might not cover you. Businesses face up to $500,000 in fines.

The worst part? You need a new SWMS for every single job site.

FAQ

Common Questions

Everything you need to know before signing up

Yes, truly unlimited. Create 1 SWMS or 100 SWMS per month — same price. No per-document fees, no hidden charges, no "usage limits". We want you to create as many documents as you need.
We have 27+ trade-specific templates including concrete cutting, demolition, working at heights, excavation, scaffolding, electrical work near services, plumbing, roofing, confined spaces, hot works, and more. Each template comes pre-filled with hazards, controls, and PPE specific to your trade. If we don't have your trade yet, let us know and we'll add it.
Our templates are structured around the WHS Regulations 2011 framework used across Australia. Each SWMS includes all the standard sections: hazard identification, risk assessment matrix using likelihood/consequence methodology, hierarchy of controls, PPE requirements referencing Australian Standards, emergency procedures, and worker consultation records. You're responsible for reviewing and tailoring documents to your specific site and circumstances — we provide the framework, you ensure it fits your situation.
Absolutely. No lock-in contracts, no cancellation fees, no awkward phone calls. Cancel with one click in your dashboard whenever you want. Your SWMS documents will still be available to download even after you cancel.
If you can fill out a simple form, you can use makeswms. Seriously. We built this specifically for tradies who don't have time for complicated software. No training needed, no manuals to read. Pick your template, fill in site details, review the pre-filled hazards, type your name, download PDF. That's it.
You can add custom hazards anytime. We give you the framework and pre-fill the common ones for your trade, but you can always add site-specific hazards with your own risk assessment and control measures. Your custom additions are saved so you can reuse them.
You can sign up and explore the app for free, and create 1 SWMS for free. When you're ready to generate a second SWMS, that's when you'll need to subscribe. No credit card required to sign up and look around.
