Frequently asked questions
Are these method statement templates really free to download?
Yes — completely free. Over 71 free UK method statement templates, free to use forever, no paywall. Customise to your task and download as a professional HSE-compliant PDF.
What is a method statement?
A method statement is a detailed document describing how a specific task will be carried out safely. It identifies the hazards, control measures, sequence of work, equipment used, PPE required, and the named persons responsible.
What is a RAMS document?
RAMS stands for Risk Assessment and Method Statement — a combined document that pairs the hazard-and-controls analysis (risk assessment) with the task-by-task work plan (method statement). UK construction commonly requires RAMS for high-risk activities.
What's the difference between a method statement and a RAMS document?
A method statement covers the "how" — the safe work plan. A RAMS document is broader: it combines the method statement with a risk assessment for the same task. Many UK clients ask for RAMS specifically for high-risk work.
Do you have a method statement template for electrical works?
Yes. We have multiple electrical method statement templates — general electrical installation, first-fix and second-fix electrical, socket and switch installation, consumer unit / fuse board installation, electrical testing and inspection, EV charger installation, temporary site electrics, and more.
Can I download method statement templates in PDF or Word format?
Every method statement template downloads as a professional PDF. Standard and Pro plans also unlock Word (.docx) export for further editing in Microsoft Word.
Do you have method statement templates for asbestos removal?
Yes. Our asbestos removal and management method statement template aligns with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) and HSE guidance for licensed and non-licensed asbestos work.
Are these method statement templates HSE-compliant?
Yes. Every template aligns with HSE guidance, the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015), and other relevant UK regulations (Work at Height 2005, COSHH 2002, CAR 2012 for asbestos, etc.) depending on the task.
How do I customise a method statement template to my specific task?
Open the template in our interactive generator and edit the sequence of work, equipment list, PPE requirements, hazard register, and named responsible persons to match your specific site and task.
Do you have method statement templates for hot works?
Yes. Our hot works / welding / cutting / grinding method statement template covers the controls required to manage fire risk, exposure to fumes, and contact hazards during hot work activities.
Can I download these method statements as RAMS?
Yes. Use the method statement template alongside a matching risk assessment template to build a complete RAMS document for your client. Our generators support combining them into one downloadable PDF.
