Arboriculture Safe Work Practices (SWP) Review
Safe Work Practices (SWP) Policy Review
Private Consulting Service — Tree Climbing SWP Review & Revision
Your climbing crew is only as safe as the procedure they're following. If your Tree Climbing Safe Work Procedure hasn't been reviewed against current standards, it may be putting your organization, and your staff, at risk without anyone realizing it.
We conduct a comprehensive review and revision of your existing Tree Climbing SWP, checking it against WorkSafeBC Part 26, ANSI Z133, and current arboricultural best practice, then rebuild it into a document your field staff will actually use.
Who This Service Is For
Municipalities and public works departments with an existing Tree Climbing SWP
Tree care and landscape companies formalizing or updating their safety documentation
Any organization preparing for an audit, insurance review, or internal safety program update
Why This Service Matters
Built on the standards you're accountable to. Every revision is checked against WorkSafeBC Part 26 and ANSI Z133, not just tidied up for readability.
Written for the people using it. We refine language and structure so field staff can actually follow it, not just file it.
Fully documented. You get a marked-up review copy and a summary of changes, so your team can see exactly what changed and why before it's approved.
