Drag and drop the file, or browse your device to select it.
Confirm or update the document name (this is auto-filled from the file name).
Set the document status:
Waiting Review

(enabled by default).Optionally assign the SWMS to specific workers.
Click Upload SWMS to complete the process.
Uploading SWMS for Company Workers
Administrators can upload SWMS documents on behalf of companies, allowing workers to review and acknowledge them without relying on company contacts to upload files themselves.
This ensures:
Faster onboarding
Consistent document quality
Centralised compliance control
Uploading SWMS for Internal Workers
To upload SWMS for your own internal workforce:
Follow the same steps above
Select your own company during the upload process
Assign the SWMS to relevant internal workers if required
This ensures all workers can access and acknowledge safety documentation directly in BuildPass.
Summary
SWMS can be uploaded by administrators for any company
Workers can be required to review and sign SWMS
Documents can be assigned, reviewed, and tracked centrally
The same process applies to external companies and internal teams
