Introduction to this document

Method statement - working under vehicles

Our method statement enables you to put measures in place to ensure worker safety whilst working under vehicles. Use it to ensure your workers know what measures to implement so the vehicle does not crush them.

What’s covered?

Mechanics need to follow rules to protect themselves and others from harm and to help you with this we’ve produced a Method Statement - Working under Vehicles.

Our template document enables you to produce a tailored version which is unique to your workplace. We’ve listed the key instructions for securing a vehicle, or any other equipment that may need to be raised for maintenance and access needs, identified the main hazards associated with the task and recommended which personal protective clothing should be worn. Edit this to suit your own needs.

Use this method statement as part of staff instruction sessions and validate their training by requiring their signature. The completed form can be used to demonstrate that you have the risks in hand.
