Risk assessments and safety method statements

Thorough task specific risk assessments and safety method statements are the foundation of safe, efficient rope access work. At Evolve, we conduct site-specific risk assessments to identify and control hazards, ensuring that risks are reduced to acceptable levels.

Following the hierarchy of control measures, we assess and control hazards and risks, and create detailed safety method statements (SMS) that outline the safe system of work for all stages of every project. The SMS includes a comprehensive rescue plan to ensure our team is prepared for all stages of the task. This meticulous planning guarantees that every aspect of the project is managed safely, from start to finish.
