Upload or paste your RAMS and Riskora will check whether key sections appear to be missing, weak, generic or incomplete before you send it for contractor review.
Paste the text below, or upload a .docx, .pdf or .txt file. The first check runs free and instantly.
No signup needed to run the first check. Riskora helps identify possible gaps — a competent person must review and approve any RAMS before use.
The checker scans your document for the sections reviewers expect to see in a site-ready RAMS. It's designed to surface gaps before a contractor, site manager or principal contractor flags them.
Project and site details
Project ref, client, site address, dates — anchors the RAMS to a real job.
Task description
Plain-English scope of works the team will actually do.
Hazard ↔ control link
Every hazard listed must have a clear control linked to it.
Method statement sequence
Ordered, numbered steps an operative could follow.
Emergency arrangements
Who calls 999, assembly point, first aider, stop-work trigger.
COSHH
Substances listed with SDS, exposure controls and emergency action.
PPE and plant
Task-specific PPE with standards, plant with PUWER/LOLER inspection.
Site-specific controls
References to the actual site — access, exclusion zones, neighbouring trades.
Sign-off, review and version evidence
Author, approver, briefing register, review date and version control.

Rebuild & ship
Small gaps: if only minor sections are missing, you can manually improve the document and re-run the checker before submission.
Major gaps: if multiple required sections are missing, you can use Riskora to rebuild the RAMS into a structured, site-specific document.
Too generic: if the wording is template-style throughout, the fastest fix is usually to create a new RAMS from scratch using the guided builder.
In every case, a competent person must review and approve the final document before it's used on site.
Yes. The first scan is fully free and runs without signup. You'll see your rejection-risk score, the section checklist and the top priority issues before being asked to create an account.
No. You can run the checker straight away. A free account is only needed if you want the full issue list, saved reports, or the rebuild and download features.
Not automatically. The checker flags common gaps reviewers look for, but acceptance is always decided by the reviewer. A competent person must review and approve the final RAMS.
Project details, site address, task description, supervisor, emergency arrangements, nearest hospital, PPE, plant and equipment, COSHH, permits, risk matrix, hazards, method sequence, signatures, review date, version control, site-specific controls and rescue arrangements where relevant.
Yes. If the document mentions substances like cement, silica, dust, fuel, solvent, resin or paint, the checker prompts you to confirm COSHH controls and SDS references are in place.
Yes. If high-risk work is detected — work at height, MEWP, scaffold, confined space, excavation, lifting operations, hot works, demolition or asbestos — the checker prompts for a rescue plan.
Yes. The checker flags template phrases like 'wear PPE', 'work safely', 'take care' or 'follow site rules' when they appear without task- or site-specific detail.
Yes. With a Riskora account you can rebuild the document into a structured, site-specific RAMS with hazards, controls, method steps, PPE and emergency arrangements ready for review.
Yes, PDF download is available on paid Riskora plans, along with branding, sign-off and version history.
Yes. Riskora helps prepare and check RAMS — a competent person must always review, amend and approve the final document before use on site.
Useful for contractors, supervisors and small firms checking RAMS before submission.
Riskora helps identify possible gaps in RAMS documents and supports document preparation. The final RAMS must be checked, amended where necessary and approved by a competent person before use. Riskora is not a substitute for professional legal or health-and-safety advice and does not mean any document will automatically meet every legal or site-specific requirement.
