PERMIT TO WORK
A Permit to Work (PTW) system is vital in the construction industry as it ensures that high-risk activities are conducted safely and in a controlled manner. For companies, implementing a PTW system reduces the likelihood of accidents, enhances compliance with safety regulations, and protects the company from legal liabilities. For workers, it ensures that all necessary precautions are taken before work begins, reducing the risk of injury and creating a safer, more secure work environment. Overall, PTW systems promote safety, accountability, and efficiency on construction sites.
Attic Conversion & Loft
Creation Form
This permit guarantees that all loft construction and attic conversion projects are evaluated, authorised, and carried out in complete accordance with local building codes and Australian Work Health and Safety (WHS) standards. High-risk jobs including structural modifications, electrical rerouting, and working at heights may be required when converting attic spaces; they necessitate careful documentation and hazard management.
Basement
Waterproofing &
Conversions Form
High-risk tasks like excavation, confined space entry, electrical isolation, and structural alterations are frequently included in basement waterproofing and conversions. In order to comply with Australian WHS regulations and guarantee everyone's safety, this permit makes sure that all work is examined, risk-assessed, and approved before starting..
Carpentry Work
Form
Let’s be honest—carpentry might seem pretty straightforward, but when you’re working on-site with tools flying, ladders going up, and timber getting chucked around, there’s plenty that can go sideways if you’re not organised. That’s where this form comes in handy.
Think of the carpentry permit like your job site’s common-sense checklist. It lays out what needs to be done, who’s doing it, and how to do it without anyone ending up in a neck brace—or worse.
Cleaning &
Maintenance
Form
Cleaning and maintenance—sounds harmless, right? But chuck in some ladders, slippery floors, maybe a bit of electrical gear or chemical spray, and suddenly it’s not so “low risk” anymore. That’s why this permit exists: to make sure no one’s cutting corners or ending up flat on their back.
This form lays it all out. Who’s doing the job, what they’re using, and what needs to be switched off, locked out, or covered up before the mop hits the floor or the wrench comes out.
Custom Bars &
Entertainment Areas
Form
Building custom bars or decking out entertainment spaces? Sounds like fun—and it can be. But between the power tools, lighting installs, awkward layouts, and the occasional “this wall’s not square” moment, there’s a lot that can go wrong if no one’s steering the ship.
That’s where this permit steps in. It’s your behind-the-scenes checklist to make sure everyone—from the sparkies to the chippies—is clear on what’s happening and how to keep it all safe.
Earthworks
Form
Earthworks ain’t just about moving dirt. It’s heavy machines, unstable ground, buried cables, and more rules than you can shake a shovel at. One wrong move and you’re dealing with busted pipes, site shutdowns, or worse—someone getting hurt.
This permit is your game plan before anyone jumps in a digger or picks up a jackhammer. It makes sure everyone's got eyes on the risks and a solid plan to handle them.
Emergency Services
Form
Burst pipe at 2am? Power out in the middle of dinner? When it comes to emergency repairs in homes, there’s no time for mucking around—but that doesn’t mean safety goes out the window.
This permit is your go-to form for those urgent, last-minute jobs—making sure tradies still follow the right steps even when the pressure’s on. Whether it’s water, gas, or electrical work, this form keeps things safe, legal, and under control.
Elderly & Disabled
Mobility Form
Creating safe and accessible spaces for the elderly or people with disabilities isn’t just another job—it’s personal. Whether you’re building a ramp, installing grab rails, widening a doorway, or adjusting bathroom access, the goal is simple: help people move freely and safely in their own home.
This permit helps your team do just that, while making sure the job’s done right, done safely, and done with care.
Energy Efficiency
Upgrades &
Consultations Form
Whether it’s swapping out old lights for LEDs, upgrading to better insulation, or installing solar panels, energy efficiency upgrades are a win-win. They save money, help the planet, and modernise a home or business. But even “eco-friendly” jobs come with risks—especially when you're dealing with electricity, ceiling cavities, or tricky roof access.
This permit helps your crew stay sharp, safe, and compliant while making those energy-smart changes.
Electrical Fixtures
Installation and
Services Form
Installing electrical fixtures might sound routine—new power points, lighting, ceiling fans, switchboards—but we all know one wrong move can cause a shock (literally). Whether it’s a fresh install or replacing dodgy old fittings, working with electricity demands extra care and crystal-clear communication.
This permit helps make sure your sparkies—and anyone else on-site—are across what’s being done, what’s live, what’s isolated, and what’s off-limits.
Energy & Environmental
Services Form
Whether you’re fitting solar panels, setting up rainwater tanks, installing EV chargers, or running an energy audit—anything that involves energy or environmental upgrades deserves a solid plan. These jobs are great for the planet, sure, but they can also be risky if safety’s not part of the picture.
This permit makes sure the crew’s not just ticking the sustainability box—but doing the job right, and safely.
Handyman Works
Form
Handyman jobs might sound like the easy stuff—patch a wall here, fix a door there, maybe swap out a tap or tidy up the garden. But let’s be real—those small jobs often come with a mixed bag of risks. Working at heights, power tools, sharp edges, or dodgy old fittings… it adds up fast.
This permit keeps things safe, simple, and sorted—no matter how “minor” the job sounds.
Home & Buss
Accessibility Form
Making a home or business more accessible isn’t just another line item on the job sheet—it’s about making sure people can move around safely and comfortably every day. Whether it’s a ramp, rails, or widening a doorway, the goal is always to make life easier. This permit helps tradies stay clear on what needs doing, how to do it safely, and how not to turn someone’s space into a construction zone. It’s all about doing the work right, and respecting the people who live or work there.
HVAC Maintenance
Form
HVAC maintenance isn’t just about swapping filters or checking the thermostat. You’re often crawling through tight spots, working near electrical systems, or climbing onto roofs where one wrong step can turn into a disaster. This permit keeps it all in check—making sure the team knows what to do, what to watch for, and how to stay safe while keeping the air flowing. It’s a quick way to make sure the job runs smoothly, without breakdowns, injuries, or any nasty surprises.
Jet Washing & Exterior
Cleaning Form
You’d think jet washing’s a simple job—hose in hand, blast the dirt, done. But it’s not always that easy. One slippery patch, an exposed outlet, or someone walking by mid-spray, and things can go pear-shaped fast. Whether you’re cleaning driveways, building facades, or footpaths, this permit gives your crew a quick heads-up on what to watch for. It’s not just about getting the job done—it’s about doing it without someone slipping over or the job site turning into a backyard water park.
Landscaping & Garden
Maintenance Form
Landscaping might look like fresh air and greenery, but it’s not all sunshine and pot plants. You’ve got heavy gear, sharp tools, uneven ground, and sometimes wild weather to deal with. One slip on wet grass or a missed hazard in tall brush, and someone’s getting hurt. This permit helps your crew slow down for a sec, think it through, and stay safe while turning backyards and work sites into something tidy and green—without ending up in the weeds, literally or legally.
Moving and Relocation
Services Form
Moving might sound like lifting boxes and driving a truck—but there’s a lot more to it. Heavy lifting, tight stairwells, slippery driveways, and awkward furniture can turn a simple job into an accident waiting to happen. This permit helps your team pause before rushing in, figure out what could go wrong, and plan for a safe, smooth move. Whether it’s a home, office, or job site relocation, it’s about protecting your crew, the client’s stuff, and the backs carrying it all.
Office Setups &
Optimisations Form
Setting up or revamping an office might seem low-risk—until someone trips over cables, moves a loaded cabinet the wrong way, or starts drilling into a wall without checking what’s behind it. From desks and tech installs to layout changes, these jobs need more than just a tape measure. This permit helps the crew stay sharp—flagging hazards, keeping things neat, and making sure no one ends up with a sore back or a broken power point. It's all about smooth setups, without the headaches.
Organisation &
Decluttering Services
Form
Decluttering sounds harmless—until someone lifts a box full of old tiles, trips on a tangled cord, or uncovers something they weren’t expecting. Whether it’s a messy garage, packed office, or a full home overhaul, there’s always a chance of hidden hazards. This permit helps your team step back, scan the space, and make a solid plan before diving in. It’s not just about making things look neat—it’s about keeping the work safe, respectful, and stress-free for both the crew and the client.
Outdoor & Garden
Services Form
Working outdoors might seem like a breeze, but gardening and yard work come with their own set of surprises—sharp tools, power equipment, uneven ground, unpredictable weather… the list goes on. Whether it’s lawn care, pruning, or full landscape work, this permit helps your crew spot the risks before jumping in. It’s about keeping things safe, tidy, and injury-free while still getting the job done right. Because no one wants a rolled ankle or a run-in with a whipper snipper.
Painting Works
Form
Painting sounds simple—until someone’s up a ladder, dealing with fumes, or trying to squeeze behind furniture in a tight hallway. Whether it’s a full exterior job or a quick interior refresh, there are plenty of things that can go wrong if you’re not prepared. This permit helps your crew pause, check the space, and make sure they’ve got the right gear and setup before they crack open the first tin. It’s all about safety, good prep, and clean finishes—without the chaos.
Preventative
Maintenance
Form
Preventative maintenance isn’t just about ticking off a checklist—it’s about stopping small problems from turning into big, expensive ones. Whether it’s checking HVAC systems, tightening loose fittings, or inspecting safety gear, these jobs can still come with hidden risks. This permit helps your team slow down, look at the job properly, and tackle it safely. It’s not just about keeping things running—it’s about keeping people safe while doing it, without rushing or guessing their way through the task.
Plumbing Fixtures
Installation & Services
Form
Plumbing work can catch you off guard. One minute you’re fitting a tap, next thing there’s a burst pipe, water everywhere, and someone stuck under a sink swearing. Whether it’s new installs or fixing someone else’s dodgy work, these jobs need planning. This permit helps your crew get their heads around the risks before they start—like tight crawl spaces, sharp edges, or surprise leaks. It’s a simple step, but it can save you time, money, and a whole lot of mopping later.
Roofing Installation
Form
Roofing work’s no joke. You’re up high, exposed to the elements, walking on angles, and handling tools that could do some serious damage if they slip. One wrong step and you’re not just dropping your gear—you’re risking a fall. This permit helps the crew take a beat before climbing up, making sure they’ve checked the weather, sorted fall protection, and planned the job properly. Because whether it’s a full roof replacement or a simple flashing fix, no one should be guessing their way through it.
Safety and Security
Form
Jobs involving safety and security might not always seem risky—but the moment you’re dealing with locks, alarms, surveillance systems, or restricted access areas, things can go sideways quickly. This permit makes sure your crew knows exactly what they’re walking into and how to handle it without triggering alarms (literally or figuratively). It’s all about protecting people, property, and the team doing the work—because safety starts long before the tools come out of the ute.
Sauna and Spa Installation Form
Installing saunas and spas sounds like a dream job—until you’re hauling gear through tight doorways, dealing with hot elements, live wiring, and slippery tiles. There’s water, steam, electricity, and heavy lifting all packed into one job. This permit helps your team slow down and think it through before someone ends up soaked or singed. It covers the risks, the setup, and the safety checks so your crew can focus on the finish—not fixing avoidable mistakes after the fact.
Security System Installation Form
Installing security systems might seem routine—but it often means working at heights, dealing with electrical wiring, drilling into walls, and navigating around sensitive areas. One wrong move and you’ve set off an alarm or fried a circuit. This permit helps your crew take a step back and sort out the setup before the job kicks off. It covers access, risks, and equipment use so the install runs smoothly—and safely—without any surprises or client complaints.
Soundproofing Rooms
Form
Soundproofing might not seem risky at first glance—but once you're cutting into walls, crawling into ceiling cavities, or working with heavy acoustic panels, the hazards stack up fast. There’s dust, tight spaces, tools, and sometimes live wiring to watch out for. This permit helps your crew take a moment before getting stuck in—checking what’s behind the walls, planning the layout, and making sure they’re not creating more problems than they’re fixing. Because quiet rooms shouldn’t come with loud accidents.
Staging & Interior
Design Consultation
Form
Staging and interior design might feel low-risk, but lifting heavy furniture, climbing ladders to hang art, moving sharp decor, or working in tight spaces can still cause trouble if you’re not careful. Whether it’s a one-room setup or a full fit-out, this permit helps your crew walk in with a plan. It flags hazards, outlines who’s doing what, and keeps the space safe—not just pretty. Because no one wants a pulled muscle or broken vase before the first photo’s taken.
Termite and Pest
Control Form
Pest control might not look risky from the outside—but when chemicals, crawlspaces, ladders, and live infestations are involved, things can get dangerous quick. Whether it’s termites under the floor or wasps in the wall, this permit helps your team prep before they suit up. It outlines what’s being treated, what risks are on site, and how to keep the job safe for both the crew and the people living or working nearby. No surprises, no slip-ups—just safe, effective pest control.
Theatre Installation
Form
Theatre installs aren’t just about plugging in speakers and hanging curtains. You’ve got lighting rigs, cabling, wall mounts, ceiling brackets, and tight timeframes—all while working around delicate gear and awkward spaces. One wrong move and someone’s tripped, fallen, or blown a fuse. This permit helps your crew plan ahead, spot the hazards, and work safely without turning a sleek setup into a costly mistake. It’s about getting the atmosphere right—without anyone ending up in the spotlight for the wrong reason.
