Riskora helps structure your safety document. A competent person must review it before use. Structured around Irish legislation — Schedule 1 particular-risk mapping, General Principles of Prevention applied in order, Safe Pass register and PSDP/PSCS appointments visible on the document.

You're probably here because…
  • A PSCS or main contractor wants RAMS before site access.
  • Last RAMS got pulled up for citing CDM 2015 instead of S.I. 291/2013.
  • An HSA inspector visit or improvement notice is in front of you.
  • Schedule 1 particular risks need method-statement detail.
What to add to the box
  • The PSCS request for RAMS
  • Your scope of works or quote
  • A site agent's WhatsApp or text
  • AF2 / AF3 notification details
  • A previous RAMS to update for this site

What Riskora builds into every Irish RAMS

Job-specific hazards

Hazards drawn from the task, the site and the scope you describe — not a stock list.

Hierarchy of controls

Elimination first, PPE last. Initial and residual risk shown side by side.

Step-by-step method

Sequenced steps with a person responsible for each, written for this RAMS.

PPE & equipment

Task-specific PPE, plant and inspection requirements.

Emergency arrangements

First aid, fire, spill and rescue arrangements specific to the work.

Chemicals & substances

Substance prompts appear when materials in scope need a hazardous-substance assessment.

Permits & hold points

Hot work, working at height, confined space and inspection hold points where they apply.

Briefing & sign-off

Pre-start briefing register, version lock and an audit-ready workflow.

HSA-aligned RAMS PDF

Branded, paginated PDF you can issue without reformatting.

Example output

An Irish RAMS, not a UK template

Citations to the 2005 Act, General Application Regs 2007 and S.I. 291/2013. Schedule 1 mapping, controls in Schedule 3 order, Safe Pass / CSCS register fields and a named Irish A&E in emergency arrangements.

Not a blank template

Riskora isn't a blank template or a generic AI text generator

Riskora asks for your job and site context, then structures a client-ready, site-specific Safety Statement: hazards, controls, method steps, PPE, emergency arrangements and sign-off — not a paragraph of AI prose. You stay in control of every section and the output is built for an audit-ready workflow.

Inside the document

What your Safety Statement actually contains

Riskora builds a structured, client-facing document — not a generic AI paragraph. Every section is shaped around your job, your site and your team.

  • Hazards

    Task-specific hazards for the job, captured row by row — not a generic list pulled from an old Safety Statement.

  • Controls

    Control measures mapped to each hazard with residual risk scoring after controls are applied.

  • PPE

    PPE requirements tied to the activity and site, ready to brief to the team.

  • Method steps

    Step-by-step method statement structured around how the work is actually sequenced on site.

  • Emergency arrangements

    First aid, rescue plan, emergency contacts and site-specific escalation routes.

  • COSHH prompts

    Substance prompts when the work involves chemicals, dusts, fumes or sealants — flagged early, not missed at review.

  • Sign-off

    Operative sign-off captured against the document — names, dates and acknowledgement of the brief.

  • Version history

    Every change tracked so you can show what was issued, when, and which version the team signed.

  • Approval status

    Clear approval state on every document — draft, in review, approved, issued — visible across the team.

  • Audit trail

    Who created it, who reviewed it, who signed it. A complete trail you can hand to a principal contractor or auditor.

Before & after

From copied-and-pasted to site-specific

The reason Safety Statement get rejected is rarely the format — it's that the document is obviously generic. Riskora rebuilds it around this job, this site and this task.

Before

Generic template copied from an old job.

  • • Hazards and controls that don't match this site or task.
  • • Method steps written for a different sequence of work.
  • • No emergency arrangements specific to the location.
  • • Client flags it as generic and asks for a rewrite.
After

Site-specific document structured around this job, site and task.

  • • Hazards captured from the actual scope you pasted in.
  • • Method steps sequenced for how the work runs on site.
  • • Emergency arrangements and rescue plan tied to the location.
  • • Approved internally, briefed to the team, signed off and stored.
How it works

From job details to signed-off document

A four-step workflow used by contractors, consultants and safety teams to turn informal job details into client-ready safety paperwork.

  1. 1
    Paste job details

    Drop in a client email, a WhatsApp from the site manager, a scope of works or a tender note. Anything that describes the job.

  2. 2
    Riskora structures the document

    Riskora turns your brief into hazards, controls, method steps, PPE, emergency arrangements and COSHH prompts.

  3. 3
    Review, edit and download

    You stay in control of every section. Tweak anything, then download a clean PDF or share a link.

  4. 4
    Brief the team and record sign-off

    Brief operatives, capture their sign-off and keep a full audit trail of who signed which version.
