I haven't read the MSRA (Method Statement / Risk Assessment) and there is a good reason why. I haven't written it yet
I don't have the luxuries of reading how to do any of our contracts. I compile all documents myself Hugh and the timescale will be what I tell them it will be.
I'm still on the case and haven't worked out duration yet but a guess would be 5 days / 2 men to complete.
I don't receive any H&S issues either but they will be part of my MSRA. No generic MSRA's here mate, I have to write a complete "Section 10 MSRA) for each job.
I need to assess everything that can wrong, then produce 4 grades of "how likely". ranging from unlikely (1 point) to possibly which is 4 points.
I then need to suggest "how bad" things will be regarding failures ranging from Minor (which is 1 point) to Critical which is 4 points.
If the total points of what can go wrong and how bad total 3 or more I then need to come up with a plan explaining how we intend to tackle the problem in a safe manner.
Needless to say EVERYTHING ends up with more than 3 points.
My completed documents are then sent to the main contractor, H&S Officers, Structural Engineers and in some cases suppliers.
I often hear we were not the cheapest quote but always hear we are the most thorough and that's why we are awarded a large % of what I quote for.
