RAMS and site safetyJurisdiction: United KingdomAudience: Company, Operative, Customer, Landlord, Letting agentLast reviewed 2026-08-30Next review due 2026-11-30

Does signing RAMS remove responsibility?

No. A signature records briefing or acknowledgement; it does not remove legal duties or excuse unsafe work.

General information only. Jobaro does not provide legal, tax, accounting, employment, tenancy or health-and-safety advice. Your circumstances and location matter.

Plain answer

No. A signature records briefing or acknowledgement; it does not remove legal duties or excuse unsafe work.

What this means for you

RAMS are planning and briefing records. They only help if they are site-specific, reviewed by competent people and actually followed.

What you need to do

Complete the site questions, hazards, controls, residual risks, competence checks, briefing record and change log before relying on RAMS.

What Jobaro does

Jobaro helps create, version, brief and store RAMS records.

What Jobaro does not do

A Jobaro template does not make work safe or legally compliant by itself and is not official approval.
