Method statement Description:

This strip and trench-fill foundation method statement template from Health & Safety Zone is designed for groundworks contractors, site supervisors and operatives who need a clear, compliant safe system of work for constructing strip and trench-fill foundations on low-rise buildings.

The main hazards are trench collapse, striking buried services, manual handling of reinforcement and concrete, dust exposure and plant operation.

Use this method statement for:

  • Excavation and trench set-out – safe location and protection of services.
  • Reinforcement placement and concrete pouring – compliant with design and building control.
  • Site hand-over and record keeping – ensuring all documentation is complete for the next trade.

The template includes an introduction, legislation list, training and competence, detailed work stages, PPE requirements and finishing actions, ready for your team to expand with site-specific detail.

Fully editable and shareable, it can be tailored to your site, branded with your company details and shared with your workforce for sign-off before work begins.

Compliant with: Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998, Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002, Building Regulations 2010, Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005, Control of Vibration at Work Regulations 2005, Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992, Work at Height Regulations 2005, Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992, Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013, Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981, Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2011, Environmental Protection Act 1990.
