Our risk assessment method statement template combines two essential safety tools into one comprehensive document. You’ll be able to identify hazards, evaluate risks, and outline safe working procedures in high-risk industries. Though not explicitly required by law, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) recognizes RAMS as valuable components of an effective safety management system.

The template helps you fulfill safety obligations to identify hazards, evaluate risks, and implement control measures. You can use it to document key processes steps, from equipment requirements to emergency procedures, creating a clear roadmap that can be easily communicated to all team members.

Frequently asked questions

How can I ensure my risk assessment method statement is comprehensive enough for high-risk work?

Start by thoroughly identifying all potential hazards specific to your task. Include both obvious and less apparent risks, and evaluate each one’s severity and likelihood. Document existing control measures and add new ones where gaps exist. Be specific about work procedures, equipment requirements, and emergency protocols. Finally, have the document reviewed by someone with relevant expertise who can spot any overlooked elements.

What’s the difference between the risk assessment and method statement sections of this template?

The risk assessment section identifies hazards, evaluates their risks, and outlines control measures. It answers “what could go wrong and how do we prevent it?” The method statement section provides step-by-step instructions for safely completing the work, including equipment, materials, and procedures. It answers “how will we do this work safely?” Together, they form a comprehensive safety plan that both analyzes risks and provides practical guidance.

How do I determine the appropriate risk rating for identified hazards in this template?

Assess each hazard based on two factors: the severity of potential harm (minor to fatal) and the likelihood of occurrence (rare to almost certain). Multiply these values to calculate the risk rating. Higher ratings indicate greater risks requiring more robust control measures. Remember to reassess the rating after implementing controls to ensure risks have been reduced to acceptable levels. Always use a consistent rating system across all your assessments.
