What Is A RAMS Document?
RAMS stands for Risk Assessment and Method Statement. It is a combined document widely required on UK construction and maintenance projects, and by many principal contractors before work can begin.
A RAMS consists of two parts:
Risk Assessment
Identifies hazards associated with the activity, who is at risk, and what controls are in place to reduce that risk. This is the legally required element under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999.

Method Statement
Describes the sequence of work, the resources and equipment to be used, and the safe working procedures to be followed. Typically required by principal contractors and clients.
