The term Safe Work Procedure originated in Victoria, Australia and is predominately used by the Victorian Government's WorkSafe Department. A Safe Work Procedure is a working document that describes how to safely perform a task. The document generally lists the associated hazards involved in performing a task, what personal protective equipment is required, and the steps involved to complete the activity without incident.
Safe Work Procedures are also required for machinery and equipment that is used to perform commercial activities. The Procedures are required to be enforced within the workplace and improved as conditions or equipment changes.
