WorkSafe WA

Western Australia adopted WHS legislation with the Work Health and Safety Act 2020 (WA), which came into effect in March 2022 alongside the WHS (General) Regulations 2022. WorkSafe WA is the state regulator. Before 2022, WA used the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1984 (WA) — so older SWMS templates may reference outdated legislation. QuickSWMS always uses the current WA WHS legislation.

Frequently asked questions

When did WA adopt WHS legislation?

Western Australia adopted the Model WHS framework in March 2022 when the Work Health and Safety Act 2020 (WA) and WHS (General) Regulations 2022 came into effect. Before that, WA operated under the Occupational Safety and Health Act 1984. Any SWMS template using the old OSH Act is outdated and non-compliant.

Does QuickSWMS use the current WA legislation?

Yes. When you select WA in the generator, QuickSWMS references WHS Act 2020 (WA) and WHS (General) Regulations 2022 — the current legislation. Older templates from before 2022 that reference the OSH Act 1984 are outdated and should not be used.
