Does anyone have a template(link) for RAMS to cover Covid 19?

At the bottom of our risk assessment we provide to commercial customers we add the following clause.

GRAMS = General Risk Assessment Management.

On going risk assessment and evaluation to be done during the clean. Should assessed risks or injury to cleaners or public become intolerable (score 4 or above on our block chart) then immediate action is to be taken. This could mean putting the clean on hold until the situation is resolved or resolves itself.

This could also cover Covid-19.

We don't have a general risk and method statement for each residential customer. We assess the situation when we arrive. Publicity has made us all aware of the implications of the Covid 19 pandemic so if working we know what we have to do and our customers know as well.

Ive never needed a risk assessment /method statement for any commercial job I've ever had.just proof of PLI and most dont even ask for that.

common sense is all that's needed.

Sorry but that is b******s. In the case of an accident, the client needs to be able to show that the contractor/service provider was vetted and had the right methods and had carried out a risk assessment. Some of mine {clients] wouldn't let you near their sites without a detailed risk assessment.

Been mates with Steve for 30 years. I scraped the tiles with the Marshall scraper and then algo cleared it. Not checked the results yet but with algo clear pro, it’s always a good result  👍

Dazmond,

There is not one commercial job or resdential block we clean without providing RAMS, infact we submit one to the client beofre any work commences and keep one in the office, with more detailed jobs we must have them in the van which can be added to on the day if required.

We also include COVID-19 and the updated CPR  guidance.

We submit RAMS on every single job from shop fronts to 37 storey buildings, in this day and age it is absolutely paramount.
