What are RAMS?
RAMS are a hazard management tool that helps you identify hazards and the appropriate controls before you carry out a specific task or job. Completing a RAMS will help reduce the risks on-site by walking you through assessing the work before you start and putting the correct processes in place to make sure you do it safely.
