Health & Safety for Construction & Trades

Builders, electricians, plumbers, roofers and groundworkers — if you want bigger contracts, you need the paperwork to match. We produce RAMS, risk assessments and COSHH that pass principal contractor checks and win tenders.

Why It Matters

No Paperwork, No Job

Construction is the most heavily regulated sector for health and safety. Missing or inadequate documentation costs you contracts — and can lead to enforcement action.

🪜
Work at Height & Manual Handling
Two of the biggest causes of injury on site. Both need suitable, task-specific risk assessments and safe systems of work.
🌫️
Hazardous Dust & Substances (COSHH)
Silica from cutting, wood dust, solvents and resins are all COSHH-regulated and a major long-term health risk.
⚠️
Asbestos in Older Buildings
Any work on pre-2000 buildings carries asbestos risk that must be identified and managed before work starts.
🛠️
Plant & Equipment (PUWER)
Tools and machinery must be suitable, maintained and used safely, with the right controls recorded.
CDM 2015 applies to virtually all construction work
Under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, everyone on a project has legal duties. In practice, principal contractors will ask for your RAMS and risk assessments before letting you on site — and a missing document means a missed job.

We build RAMS that are specific to your task, branded to your business, and ready to submit.
