The Scaffold Risk Assessment And Method Statement (RAMS) is a crucial document required under Indian construction safety regulations, particularly for projects involving work at height. This document is mandatory under The Building and Other Construction Workers Act 1996 and must comply with Indian Standards IS 3696 for scaffold safety. It is required whenever scaffolding work is to be undertaken in construction, maintenance, or industrial settings. The document combines a detailed risk assessment identifying potential hazards and their control measures with a comprehensive method statement outlining the safe working procedures. It serves as both a planning tool and a legal record, demonstrating compliance with Indian safety regulations while providing practical guidance for workers and supervisors involved in scaffolding operations.
