The Site Specific Risk Assessment And Method Statement (RAMS) is a crucial document required under German workplace safety legislation, particularly the Arbeitsschutzgesetz (ArbSchG) and related regulations. It is mandatory for most construction and high-risk industrial activities in Germany, combining risk evaluation with detailed work procedures. The document must be prepared before work commencement and updated when conditions change. It includes comprehensive hazard identification, risk evaluation, control measures, and step-by-step work procedures, all tailored to specific site conditions. The RAMS ensures compliance with German federal and state safety requirements, relevant EU directives, and industry standards while providing practical guidance for work execution. It serves as a key reference for all parties involved in the work, from management to site workers, and forms part of the site's safety documentation system.
