Permits this work normally needs
The RAMS answers how the work is done safely; the permit authorises it in that place, on that day. This document cross-references:
Statutory basis, cited on the form
- CDM 2015 reg 20 — demolition planned, and the arrangements recorded in writing, before work begins
- HSWA 1974 s.2(2)(a)
- MHSWR 1999 regs 3 and 5
- COSHH 2002
- CAR 2012 (asbestos)
Guidance and standards relied on
These are not law. HSE guidance carries no statutory force in itself, British Standards and NASC technical guidance are industry documents, and the Joint Code of Practice is an insurers' code. They are what the document is built to — and where a court would look for the standard of the reasonable contractor.
What it is not
It is not a completed document and it is not health and safety advice. You must adapt it to your site and have a competent person complete and sign it off. See why we don't say "compliant".
Format
