1. What is 'human factors' in the context of accident investigation?
Human factors encompass the individual (physical and psychological capability, fatigue, motivation), the job (task demands, environment, procedures), and the organisation (leadership, culture, communication). Addressing human factors in investigation prevents recurrence at a deeper level than just technical fixes.
2. When should a method statement for a high-risk activity be submitted to the principal contractor?
Method statements for high-risk activities must be submitted and approved by the principal contractor (or their representative) before the work begins. This allows for review, modification if needed, and confirmation that the proposed approach is consistent with the CPP.
3. A RAMS document includes a risk assessment and a method statement. What does RAMS stand for?
RAMS stands for Risk Assessment and Method Statement. The two documents are often produced together as a RAMS package, covering both the identified risks and the specific method by which the work will be controlled and carried out safely.
4. A risk assessment for a demolition project must include assessment of which specific hazard?
Structural instability during demolition is one of the highest-risk hazards. Removing structural elements can cause unexpected progressive collapse. A pre-demolition structural survey must inform the risk assessment and method statement for the demolition sequence.
5. A site manager must ensure that all plant and equipment operators hold the relevant Certificate of Competency. What scheme covers crane operators?
The Construction Plant Competence Scheme (CPCS) provides red (trained operator) and blue (competent operator) cards for a wide range of plant including cranes, excavators, bulldozers, and tower cranes. Site managers should check that operators hold the relevant CPCS card for the plant they are operating.
