Clear, Practical RAMS and Risk Assessment Support

To meet their legal duty to identify, eliminate and control risks in their business, employers need suitable and sufficient workplace risk assessments and in some cases method statements to be written and reviewed periodically. Additionally, many businesses need risk assessments, method statements or RAMS because a client, contractor, site or project requires them before work can begin.

C&C Consulting provides practical documents that reflect the real work being carried out. We help identify hazards, set out suitable controls and prepare clear information that employees, contractors and clients can understand and use.

When RAMS or Risk Assessment Support May Be Needed

This service is for employers, contractors and project teams that need health and safety documents before work can begin or as part of managing workplace risk.

C&C can help where existing documents are outdated, too generic or do not meet the requirements of a client, contractor or site.

Work cannot start until documents have been reviewed or approved
A project involves higher-risk or unusual activity

You want confidence that suitable controls are in place

Not Sure What Documents You Need?

If a client, contractor or site has asked for RAMS, risk assessments or method statements, it may not be clear exactly what is required. C&C can help you understand the request, identify the right documents and make sure the work can move forward safely.

Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS) Explained

These documents work together to identify workplace risks, explain how work should be carried out and give employees, contractors and clients clear information about the controls in place.

Risk Assessments

Identify hazards, assess the level of risk and set out the controls needed to protect employees, contractors, visitors and others who may be affected by the work.

Method Statements

Explain how a task will be completed safely, including the sequence of work, equipment being used, responsibilities and precautions that must be followed.

RAMS

Bring risk assessments and method statements together to show both the risks involved and how the work will be planned, controlled and carried out safely.

What C&C Can Help With

Our advisers prepare practical health and safety documents associated with the work being carried out, rather than relying on generic templates.

We take the time to understand the task, working environment, people involved and risks that need to be controlled.

Why Use Professional RAMS Support?

Documents That Reflect the Work

Generic templates often miss the actual risks, working conditions and site requirements involved. C&C prepares documents around the task and environment.

Clear Enough to Use

The documents should help employees and contractors understand how work will be carried out safely, rather than simply satisfying an administrative requirement.

Ready for Clients and Contractors

C&C can help prepare documents that are suitable for client review, contractor approval and the specific requirements of a project or site.

Risk Assessment Support for Employers

Employers have a responsibility to identify workplace hazards, assess risks and take suitable steps to protect people from harm. Where a business has five or more employees, the significant findings of risk assessments must be recorded.

C&C Consulting can help your business prepare clear workplace risk assessments that reflect your activities, working environment and existing control measures. This can include reviewing current documents, identifying gaps and recommending practical improvements.

A good risk assessment should not be a box-ticking exercise. It should help managers and employees understand the risks involved in their work and the steps needed to manage those risks properly.

Method Statement Support for Projects and Contractors

Method statements are commonly required for construction, maintenance, installation and contractor-led work. They help explain how a task will be carried out safely, what precautions are needed and who is responsible for each stage of the work.

C&C can help prepare task-specific method statements that are clear, practical and suitable for the project. This can be particularly useful when work involves higher-risk activities, unusual conditions, hazardous substances, plant, equipment or site-specific requirements.

We can also help review existing method statements where they need to be updated, strengthened or adapted for a particular client, site or project.

RAMS stands for Risk Assessments and Method Statements. They are often used together to show what risks are involved in a task and how the work will be carried out safely.

Can C&C prepare RAMS for a specific project?

Yes. C&C can prepare RAMS for specific projects, contractor work, site activities and higher-risk tasks. We can also review existing documents where they need to be updated or adapted.

Can you review our existing risk assessments?

Yes. We can review existing risk assessments and method statements to check whether they are clear, suitable and relevant to the work being carried out.
