A method statement is a document prepared by an organisation that describes in a logical sequence exactly
how a work activity is to be carried out in a manner which is safe and without risk to health.
To a large extent, the way that the job will be undertaken, and therefore detailed in the method statement,
will reflect the findings of the risk assessment(s) for the same job.
The means of controlling risk will influence the method of carrying out the job. In most cases, extensive
reference to risk assessment(s) will be necessary during the drafting of a method statement.
Well written method statements provide an ideal means of communicating vital health and safety
information to those who will be doing the works and others, such as project managers, or contractors,
who have an interest in how the job will be carried out.
This document is to be written using the input of the person who is safety trained and the person
responsible for carrying out the work. It should also be reviewed by the contractor’s project leader and
endorsed by the operatives.

General Provisions for Health and Safety at Workplaces Regulations are taken into consideration:
4. (1) It shall be the duty of the employer to ensure the health and safety of workers at all times in every aspect
related to the work.
4. (2) An employer shall make such appropriate arrangements for the effective planning, organization, control,
monitoring and review of the preventive and protective measures, taking into consideration the nature of the
activities and the size of the undertaking.
5. “… an employer shall after taking into account the nature of activities of the enterprise and establishment:
(i) Identify hazards at the place of work and shall avoid risks to the occupational health and safety.
(ii) Evaluate those risks to the health and safety of workers, which cannot be avoided and shall combat them at
source.
(iii) Adapt the work to the individual, especially with regards to the design of workplaces, the choice of work
equipment and the choice of working and production methods, with a view in particular to alleviate
monotonous work and work at a predetermined work rate and to reduce their effect on health”.
In order to ensure cooperation between employer and employee regarding health and safety at the workplace, the
same legal notice deals, also, with the employees’ share of responsibility:

briefing. Educate your managers and workers about the importance of sleep
Ensure all employees are aware of the dangers coming to and from work due to fatigue –
advise on carpools/public transport/taxis
Ensure the site is well lit at night as workers should not be allowed to work in the dark
Allow workers to have regular rests throughout their shift
Ensure all workers are wearing the correct PPE i.e. Hard hats, High Visibility etc.
Workers should also be conscious of what they need to do to prepare themselves for a
night shift.
• Take a nap of 1-4 hours before the first night shift
• Keep your sleeping pattern regular
• Have your largest meal after your day-time sleep, before starting the night shift
29 X
• Take short breaks during your shift
• Eat balanced and regular meals
• Avoid fatty foods entirely during your shift
• Ensure you have the right PPE on
Managers and supervisors should learn to recognize signs and symptoms of the potential
health effects associated with night shifts. Workers who are being asked to work night
shifts should be diligently monitored for the signs and symptoms of fatigue. Any
employee showing such signs should be evaluated and possibly directed to leave the
active area and seek rest.
Plan to have an adequate number of personnel available to enable workers to take

breaks, eat meals, relax, and sleep. If at remote sites, ensure, as far as possible, that
there is a quiet, secluded area designated for rest and recuperation.

pedestrian route is to passers-by.
precautions must include the following measures:
i. Use of signage throughout.

ii. Restriction on the hours of operation for such activities (non-peak hours).
iii. When any type of lifting operation is carried out on site, the procedures to be adopted shall strictly
adhere to the Risk Assessment Method Statement provided to the Contractor by the H&S officer.
6. Procedure to be adopted for the loading and carting away of the resulting debris
Waste Management
The Construction Industry is one of the greatest generators of waste in the local scenario. Thus efforts should be put in place
to primarily MINIMIZE waste generation (e.g. clipping of Rebar, and steel reinforcement, cutting of masonry and concrete
blocks, disposal of formwork and shuttering). Works shall be carried out in strict adherence with the provisions of the
Environmental Protection Act, 1990. Environmentally sustainable procedures shall be adopted throughout the construction
sequence. Care shall be taken not to cause damage to any areas located within close proximity to the site, particularly areas
of ecological and/or historical importance. No construction works, storage or parking of construction vehicles shall be
permitted outside the site.
Only registered and approved dumping sites shall be used for the disposal of construction or other waste. Waste separation
at source shall be practiced throughout the duration of works and regular waste collection and disposal shall be ensured.
The Contractor is committed to minimizing construction waste by adopting best practices including a site wide waste
minimization scheme that maximizes material use and keeps waste to a minimum. The locations of waste management
facilities will be carefully planned to minimize disturbance to the public and to allow easy access for workmen, along with the
following practicalities:
i. Reuse of suitable excavated materials from site works.

ii. Giving details to key site personnel of what and when can material taken off the site be recycled, typically to include timber,
concrete, bricks, site metals and drink cans/bottles.
iii. Reduction of materials wastage through good storage and handling.
The following steps shall be taken to prevent disruption to the public area: • Skips or rubbish bins are to be place away from
public pedestrian access areas
● Times and methods for loading and unloading of bins and skips are to be specified
● Pavements and streets are to be protected
Any hazardous material shall be notified to the Environmental Protection Department and shall be transported in accordance
with the relevant regulations.
Air and dust management
Air quality (airborne dust and pollutants) in and around the construction site is to be maintained at acceptable levels throughout
the construction period. Adequate measures for preventing dust and other airborne matter impacting on the surrounding area
are to be ensured such as using water in proper proportions to avoid any damages which may result due to water ingress in third
party quickly as possible. All trucks transporting material off the site need to be covered. Dumping of the debris into the truck
must not be done from a height and the bucket is to be kept as low as possible to the edge of the truck to minimize the possibility
of debris spilling over the side and to reduce the generation of dust.
