Risk Assessments and Method Statements:
At Wrap Dynamics, safety is paramount. Before we begin any shrink wrap project, we conduct a thorough risk assessment to identify potential hazards and implement necessary control measures. This ensures the well-being of our team, your personnel, and the public.
Our risk assessments are comprehensive, evaluating the work environment, the specific structure or equipment being wrapped, and any potential hazards during installation. We then develop a detailed method statement, outlining step-by-step procedures for completing the job safely.
What are Method Statements?
Think of a method statement as a “safe work playbook.” It builds on the risk assessment by providing specific instructions on how to perform tasks safely, including the use of control measures and safety equipment. This ensures our team follows best practices and minimizes risks.
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
When hazards cannot be adequately controlled, we require our team to use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). This includes:
Hard Hats:
Protect against falling objects and head injuries.
Safety Glasses:
Shield eyes from dust, debris, and heat generated during shrink wrapping.
Safety Boots:
Provide essential foot protection with steel toe caps and puncture-resistant midsoles.
Hi-Visibility Clothing:
Ensures visibility on-site, even in low-light conditions.
Gloves:
Different types of gloves are used for handling materials and performing hot work, including leather gauntlets for added protection during welding and shrinking.
Wrap Dynamics is committed to maintaining a safe working environment for everyone involved in our projects. By prioritizing risk assessments, method statements, and the proper use of PPE, we ensure that every shrink wrap installation is conducted with the highest regard for safety and compliance.
