Sydney Plumbing News

As an employer of a Sydney Plumber, we realise that OH&S Legislation requires Sydney Plumbing Services to provide our plumbers with safe work instructions, so that our staff can competently and safely operate equipment to perform a set plumbing job or task. An example of this is safe use of an Electric Eel or Drain Jetter when clearing Blocked drains. It is often assumed plumbers know this information already from previous experience or TAFE training. However, we insist our plumbers participate in courses where they require further learning.


Over the last few years, The Master Plumbers Association (MPA) has offered over 40 seminars to the Plumbing Industry and also created the "Master Plumbers Safety and Consultation System" the entire Plumbing Industry. Fifty of the offered Safe Work Instructions (SWIs) offered to our Sydney Plumbers are:
