SWMS forms are painful on a phone PDF

What slows teams on WHS Form 05.

Composite PCBU and contractor blocks

Business name, ABN, address, and phone are tedious to tap through in a flat PDF viewer on site.

Task table spans two pages

Fifteen rows with hazards and controls are hard to fill without losing your place on a phone.

Principal expects the HIISP layout

Site packs need the official column order, not a retyped spreadsheet.

Finish the SWMS before high risk work starts

Three steps without fighting the table on a phone.
