Method statement template free: the complete method, built from your assessment and printed without an account

Method statement template free means, on this site, the complete document and not a sample: the risk assessment and method statement tool builds the steps from your assessment, attaches each control at its step, adds the plant, permits and PPE, the emergency and rescue arrangements and the sign-on sheet, and prints it without an account. The HSE's guidance, cited below, gives risk assessment as five steps: identify hazards, assess the risks, control the risks, record your findings, review the controls, and says that if you employ 5 or more people you must record your significant findings. The subscription is for keeping the signed method against the job, not for unlocking any part of it.

Complete on the free print

Header, task, the steps in order, the controls referenced by hazard number, plant with inspection status, permits, PPE per step, emergency and rescue, sign-on and review. Everything a principal contractor reads under CDM, cited below.

Built from your assessment

The tool asks for the assessment's rows first, because a method with no assessment has no controls to attach. Enter the hazards and controls, then the steps, and the tool places each control at its step. That is the one thing a blank free template cannot do.

Nothing generic in it

The steps are yours, the site is yours, the emergency details are yours. There is no pre-filled method on this site to copy, because a pre-filled method is the one that gets filed unchanged and returned by the approver.

What the subscription is for

Keeping the signed method in its version against the job, with the RAMS it belongs to, the review reminder, the incident reports and the export a client asks for, printed under your company name. From the vendors' own pricing pages, cited below: SafetyCulture lists its Premium plan at $29 per seat per month billed monthly or $24 billed annually, with a free plan for small teams; Contractor Foreman lists its Basic plan at $49 per month for one user. DailyLogDesk Pro is $29 per month for the whole site team.
