Which name your site uses
New Zealand law does not require a document called a Safe Work Method Statement. That term comes from the Australian WHS Regulation, where the document is mandatory for high risk construction work. The duties here are to manage risk so far as is reasonably practicable and to consult, cooperate and coordinate with the other businesses on site, under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015.
Plenty of New Zealand sites still ask for one by that name, because the people running them have worked across the Tasman or the client is an Australian business. Both names describe the same document here, sold separately at the same price, so you can buy whichever the paperwork asks for. Our main catalogue is filed under Task Analysis.
