The Carpentry Risk Assessment And Method Statement (RAMS) is a crucial health and safety document required by law in England and Wales. It is necessary whenever carpentry works are to be undertaken on construction sites or in building projects. The document serves dual purposes: first, as a systematic evaluation of potential risks and hazards associated with carpentry work, and second, as a detailed methodology for safely executing these works. It must comply with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and various other regulations, including PUWER 1998 and the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. This document is essential for demonstrating compliance with legal obligations and ensuring worker safety.
