Risk assessment:

The risk assessment for this job is basically to wear your PPE and to be careful around a wet area, this is so that you don’t slip over. The PPE is so that you don’t get any sewage into cuts on your hands or so that when your cutting the pipe you slip and catch your foot, this is why you have to wear steel capped boots. Wear goggles just in case sewage water gets into your eyes.

Method statement:

Before you start the job make sure you get the tools you need ready, first mark out the part of the pipe you need to repair get a saw and cut the pipe where you have the cut marks when you have cut the pipe on one end of the pipe put a pipe connector and make sure it goes half way down when you have got it on the pipe tighten it up and put it on the pipe and tighten that end when you lay the pipe down against the other side mark off where the pipe end and the cut that part off. when you have done that slide the other pipe connector on the pipe then slide it across on to the other part of the pipe then tighten both sides up and make sure you have tightened them enough so it don’t leak
