How Do I Add a Risk Assessment Method Statement?


RAMS stands for Risk Assessment and Method Statement.

  1. A Risk Assessment identifies and evaluates hazards and risks, then implements control measures to reduce those hazards.
  2. A Method Statement describes how a task should be performed step-by-step to ensure it is carried out safely.


A Risk Assessment Method Statement (RAMS) is a safety document used to identify and describe a specific activity being carried out. Completing a RAMS is important, as it provides detailed information on high-risk activities and supports the maintenance of a safe working environment.


The RAMS Module enables client companies to request RAMS directly from subcontractors by adding requests to the RAMS register. Subcontractors can upload the requested RAMS documents, which can then be reviewed, accepted, or rejected. Once uploaded, RAMS documents are available in the RAMS register for inspection.


To add a RAMS:

  1. On the left column, click RAMS.
  2. Click +New RAMS.
  3. Enter the Activity that is associated with the RAMS.
  4. Enter a Description.
  5. Choose the Type, Project and Subcontractor from the dropdown options.
  6. The Subcontractor must be assigned to one or more locations to be able to use the system, as subcontractors need this information to set up employees or accept jobs, for example.
  7. Choose a RAMS Form from the dropdown options.
  8. Choose an Investigation Form from the dropdown options.
  9. Click Save & Submit.


This is required before you can add a RAMS:

  1. Set up Projects
  2. Set up Subcontractors
  3. Digitise your Investigation Form
  4. Set up Notifications


  1. A field with a red asterisk beside it means it is required and you will not be able to complete your work without filling in these fields i.e. activity, type and project.


  1. A field without a red asterisk beside it means the field is not required, although it may be helpful to fill these out to complete your work.


Other Options:

  1. Under the dropdown options, you might see an option to add more, by clicking the Here button highlighted. This will take you to the section you wish to add more of, i.e. if you want to add more projects, subcontractors and forms to the system - be cautious that when you click this button, the details you have entered will be deleted.
