Support and preparation of Risk Assessment and Method Statements

Every company is under a statutory duty to carry out an assessment of risks present in its workplace. If your company employs five people or more, the risk assessment must be in writing.
Legislation requires that the assessment be carried out by a "competent person" and examine the entire company’s activities to identify any hazards involved, the likelihood of those hazards causing harm and the steps required to eliminate or minimise the risks. The risk assessment should be reviewed periodically and whenever there are significant changes in the workplace.

More and more installers are being asked by their clients to produce a method statement as part of their Health and Safety policy or for larger projects, under the CDM Regulations. A Method Statement is a document detailing how a particular process will be carried out. It should detail the possible dangers/risks associated with your particular part of the project and the methods of control to be established, to show how the work will be managed safely. QSC will analyse your working processes and produce bespoke method statements to reduce the risks involved. You will then be able to comply with the needs of your clients and the CDM regulations.

We can arrange for a qualified Safety Manager to visit your premises and carry out a Risk Assessment and Method Statement study on your behalf.
