Ground-level and low-risk window cleaning Method Statement

A method statement for ground-level and low-risk window cleaning, laid out step by step and paired with a scored risk assessment.

In short

A method statement sets out how a task will be carried out safely, step by step: preparation, set-up, the work itself and completion, with the plant, permits, competence and supervision needed. It puts the controls identified in the risk assessment into a safe system of work.

What it must include

  • Task description, location and duration
  • Step-by-step sequence of works
  • Plant, equipment and materials
  • Permits and isolations required
  • Competence, training and supervision
  • PPE and emergency arrangements
