Arrgh! The Annual Update

Well, the dreaded day is upon us. It begins every January and breaks our hearts for 2-3 weeks. However at the end of it we always feel that it was worthwhile. What is it?

The Annual Update of all of our Safety Statement Templates.

During the year we update and add new material as we become aware of it but every January we carry out a formal review and update of every one of our 100+ templates. It's a truly daunting task that is absolutely essential in order to ensure that all of our templates remain current.

Well...back to it...I'm up as far as Air Conditioning now. Only have to get to Window Cleaning....!

Updates next week.

School Bus Method Statement


Last year when Bus Eireann updated their contract requirements for School Bus runs, they asked for everyone to be in possession of a Safety Statement. Because of that requirement we updated our Coach and Bus Safety Statement Template to include a specific Risk Assessment for School Runs. 

This year they have added a requirement for all Bus Operators to have a Method Statement in addition to the Safety Statement. In order to cover this requirement we have now added a Template Method Statement to our Safety Statement Template. A preview of the Method Statement can be viewed here. The Template Method Statement has been added to the Appendix of the Coach and Bus Hire Safety Statement. 

Please note that in order to complete the Method Statement you will need to know the specific requirements of the school i.e. Parking restrictions, Disabled facilities, Ramps, Reversing restrictions, Speed limits, etc.
