This example is provided to assist the PCBU to develop a manifest that meets the requirements of Schedule 12 of the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011. The format/layout used here is not mandatory but shows the information to be included. This has been provided in an editable format so the PCBU can choose to adopt it and edit as required. Work through this in conjunction with the guide to Manifest requirements for hazardous chemicals under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011.
The amount of information will depend on the size and complexity of your workplace. The manifest is to be a readily available document presenting the hazardous chemical information clearly and accurately to emergency services for use in an emergency situation.
Update or delete all sections highlighted.
