Method Statements
Method statements are documents that provide clear instructions on how to carry out a job safely, to prevent potential accidents.
​
Method statements make sure the right people are appointed to complete the work. A method statement will help to ensure the safety of employees while also providing a clear schedule for all those involved – including any special measures.
For example, if any part of a building needs to be closed temporarily, or if power needs to be isolated.
​
Method statements are used in lots of sectors, but they’re predominantly used in the construction industry. They fall under the requirements of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, and are seen as a way of meeting your duty to assess, manage and communicate Health & Safety risks.
NH&SH Safety produce method statements to give a competitive edge to businesses across the UK.
​
Method statements are essential for managing Health & Safety risks in a workplace. They outline the steps you need to take to carry out tasks safely, as well as specifying any resources needed.
​
Method statements will ensure your business has all the tools needed to maintain the highest levels of Health & Safety in your workplace.
