How tradies write a site safety plan with ChatGPT
Transforms a blank site into a complete, plain-English safety pack tailored to your job, crew and client. Produces risk register, SWMS, induction, toolbox talks, emergency plan and incident reporting that your team can actually use.
Step 1, free.
Copy this, paste it into your AI, and swap the [BRACKETS] for your own details.
Setup: Build the company and job profile
Provide: [BUSINESS NAME], [NZBN IF ANY], [PRIMARY CONTACT NAME/ROLE/PHONE/EMAIL], [CREW NAMES AND ROLES], [SUBCONTRACTORS AND SCOPES], [JOB NAME], [CLIENT NAME], [JOB DESCRIPTION IN 2–3 SENTENCES], [START DATE], [FINISH DATE], [KEY PLANT/EQUIPMENT], [HIGH-RISK TASKS (E.G. WORK AT HEIGHT, EXCAVATION, ENERGIZED WORK)], [KNOWN HAZARDS], [RECENT INCIDENTS/LESSONS], [EXISTING H&S POLICIES/LINKS], [PREFERRED FILE NAMING CONVENTION]. Act as a site H&S coordinator and produce a tight, usable job profile that will drive all later documents. Work through it like this: 1) Clarify the job purpose, scope and deliverables in plain English, and confirm what is in/out of scope. 2) Map people: list PCBUs involved, crew roles/competency notes, supervision lines, and emergency roles. 3) Summarise key tasks and high-risk activities; tie each to responsible person and planned dates. 4) Note recent incidents/lessons and applicable company policies that must be applied on this job. 5) Define a file naming/versioning pattern to keep documents traceable across the pack. Give me the output as: - Job Profile sections: Company, Job Summary, People and PCBUs, Tasks and High-Risk Activities, Plant/Equipment, Known Hazards, Lessons to Apply, Policies/Standards to Use, Key Dates, Document Naming Scheme. - Plus a table: Columns = Item, Detail, Owner, Due/Date, Evidence/Link. Quality bar: Specific to this job, internally consistent, no jargon, and immediately usable by a small crew. If any information is missing or unclear, mark it as MISSING and list the exact questions to resolve before proceeding.
