How Do I Add a Risk Assessment Method Statement?
Risk Assessment Method Statement (RAMS) is a safety document that is used to identify and describe an activity that is carried out. Documenting a RAMS is important as they provide information on high risk activities and can be used to help maintain a safe workplace environment.
- On the left side menu, click ‘RAMS’.
- Click ‘+ New RAMS’.
- Enter the Activity, and Description.
- Choose the Type, Project, Subcontractor and Investigation Form from the dropdown options - 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.
- Click ‘Save & Submit’.
- 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.
- 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.
This is required before you can add a RAMS:
- Set up Projects
- Set up Subcontractors
- Digitise your Investigation Form
Other Options:
- 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.
