As required under the CDM Regulations, our team CDM Co-ordinators, will be involved in your project from conception to completion. The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007 (CDM) require that health and safety is considered throughout a construction project from feasibility through to completion. The regulations apply to all construction works no matter how small however additional duties and dutyholders come into play if the project is notifiable i.e. anticipated to last more than 30 working days or involve more than 500 person days.
 
CDM places a number of duties on Client's including:
  • Appoint a CDM Co-ordinator and Principal Contractor for notifiable projects;
  • Check the competence and resources of appointees;
  • Ensure that there are suitable management arrangements made for the project and ensure these are maintained;
  • Provide pre-construction information to designers and contractors;
  • Ensure sufficient time is allowed for each stage of the project and that contractors are given a minimum period for preparation and planning before starting work on site.
The CDM Co-ordinator is the Client's key advisor with regards to health and safety matters during the project, with a number of responsibilities under CDM including:
  • Ensuring the Client is aware of their duties;
  • Identifying, collecting and communicating pre-construction information to designers and contractors;
  • Co-ordinating health and safety aspects of the design work and promote co-operation;
  • Notifying the HSE;
  • Facilitating good communications between the Client, appointed designers and principal contractor;
  • Liaising with the Principal Contractor with regards to on-going design and information required for both the Construction Phase Plan and Health and Safety File;
  • Preparing or updating the Health and Safety File

Your project will be managed by a full-time CDM Co-ordinator, who have demonstrated their knowledge and competency to undertake the role as well as their competency in machinery and process safety.
