What is a Method Statement? Whether you are a main contractor, subcontractor, designer or installer, you may be required to co-operate with the Principal Contractor / client so far as it is necessary to enable them to comply with their duties under the relevant statutory provision. This includes complying with directions given by the Principal Contractor / client to enable the work to be carried out in accordance with Health and Safety Regulations. More and more installers are being asked by their clients to produce a method statement as part of their Health and Safety policy or for larger projects, under the CDM Regulations. A Method Statement is a document detailing how a particular process will be carried out. Such a statement is commonly used to describe how construction / installation works can be carried out safely, and should include background details of your company, site address and overview of the project. It should also detail the possible dangers/risks associated with your particular part of the project and the methods of control to be established, to show how the work will be managed safely.

Which expression in Spanish would be more suitable to render this "Method Statement"?

Avangi · Answer

Hi,
I was unable to locate my friend who's here from S.A. and in the business, but I spoke to another friend who suggests "Declaracion de Metodologia." My wife is Colombiana, but knows nothing of construction.

These terms are so general it's hard to pin them down. I guess it's more a matter of convention. Sorry I can't come up with something more authoratative. Perhaps someone else on the site has another idea.

Best wishes, - A.

Thanks Avangi but "Declaración de Metodología" is not appropriate. It means something different in Spanish far from the meaning of Method Statement. Someone proposed "Procedimientos" or Procedures. But I'm not sure. Hope someone here could help me.
