Risk Assessments
As part of the planning process a Risk Assessment must be carried out to identify any hazards. The Risk Assessment should:
- Evaluate the risks
- Identify any measures required to eliminate or reduce these risks
- Be unique to the site
- Be in writing and used for preparation of the Method Statement
Method Statements
Once the Risk Assessment has been completed a full Method Statement should be prepared detailing the safe system of work for the operation. This should include:
- The task to be achieved
- Configuration of the crane at the end of the task
- Steps to eliminate danger to personnel not involved in the lift
- Clear statements of responsibilities and roles for each member of the team
- Any site induction requirements
