So whats the vote for? Or am I missing something???

you can use a generic RA formsome things but each site may have different risks on site so RA needs to be ammended.
look up HSE website and head to risk assessment section. Easy enough to carry out

Method Statement 10 Point Rule
Or how to make your life easier and your operative’s safer
The first time you’re asked to produce a Method Statement on the work you are doing you probably took a double take. What’s a Method Statement? What’s it for? Does it have to be complex? Am I giving commercial secrets away? How do I do one?
All a Method Statement does is enable you to help your staff and the main contractor understand and manage the extent of the risks involved in the work you are about to do so that you can ensure the resources necessary to do it safely are to hand and that everyone knows what to do in an emergency situation.
This enables both you and the main contractor to comply with Health and Safety and CDM regulations but more importantly it helps you both run a safer site by ensuring everyone is aware of areas of risk where accidents, if they are going to happen, will happen.
The Ten Point Rule was a simple ‘memory jogger’ that one of our clients, Bovis Lend Lease used with their staff on their BBC Headquarters site at Pacific Quays in Glasgow. I have found that whenever a Method Statement has to be produced this is an excellent tool to ensure I have captured all the relevant information so I can get it right first time. There are no second chances with Health and Safety!
Rule 1. Company, package, title, revision number & date
Rule 2. Description of the works to include
* Time
* Duration
* Sequence
* Location
Rule 3. Resources required
* Personnel
* Supervision
* Plant & equipment
* Materials
Rule 4. Assessment of significant risks for all tasks, including
* Access / egress
* Place of work
* Others at risk (i.e. the public)
* COSHH, noise, manual handling etc
Rule 5. Control measures to be used, including
* Permits
* Security
* Special training
Rule 6. Personal protective equipment requirements
Rule 7. Emergency arrangements, including
* Rescue
* Special First Aid
Rule 8. Temporary amended systems
* Fire / security systems / access
Rule 9. To whom the information has / will be submitted, including
* Checking, review and update provision
* Change requirements
* Confirmation of Operatives briefing
Rule 10. Monitoring and compliance
