FAQs
Q. What is a RAMS and why is it essential for roofing projects?
A RAMS (Risk Assessment & Method Statement) is a document that identifies hazards, assesses risks, and outlines safe working methods for specific tasks. It is essential for roofing projects to ensure legal compliance, protect workers, and maintain site safety by providing clear instructions and controls for all activities.
Q. Who is responsible for preparing and approving RAMS on a roofing site?
The RAMS should be drafted by a competent person (often the contractor or site manager), reviewed for accuracy and compliance, and formally approved by a manager or safety officer. All workers must be briefed and sign off to confirm understanding.
Q. How often should RAMS be reviewed or updated?
RAMS should be reviewed before starting work, whenever site conditions change, or if there is a significant change in work activity. Daily checks and sign-offs ensure ongoing validity.
Q. What should I do if I notice a new hazard or unsafe condition?
Report it immediately to your supervisor. Do not proceed until the RAMS is reviewed and updated to address the new risk.
