Construction
Site-based safety management and CDM 2015 support on construction projects, with particular attention to small and specialist contractors.
What it involves
Beyond energy infrastructure, we work across construction more broadly, from day-to-day site safety management to helping principal contractors meet their CDM 2015 duties. Small and specialist contractors are often underserved by larger consultancies focused on major accounts. We are set up to support them, whether that is a competent person appointment, a management system that fits how the business actually operates, or support on a single project.
Pressures
- CDM 2015 duties apply whether or not you have in-house safety resource, and clients and main contractors expect to see them evidenced before you start on site.
- Construction phase plans, risk assessments and method statements that must reflect the real job, not a template.
- Incidents and near misses that need investigating properly so the same thing does not happen twice.
