In an ever increasing Health and Safety conscious environment, the building and property industries are foremost in trying to create a 'safe' environment throughout the life of a construction project, however small, from its design, operation, maintenance and even eventual demolition and replacement.
All those who work in the construction industry have individual responsibilities for health and safety and in improving the industry's health and safety record.
A CDM co-coordinator is only required where the project is 'notifiable'.
Their main duties are to:
- advise and assist the client with their duties;
- notify details of the project to HSE;
- co-ordinate health and safety aspects of design work and co-operate with others involved with the project;
- facilitate good communication between the client, designers and contractors;
- liaise with the principal contractor regarding ongoing design work;
- identify, collect and forward on pre-construction information; and prepare/update the health and safety file.
Clients need to be aware that they take a personal responsibility in Health and Safety issues for their project and must have complete trust in their consultants to advise them accordingly. All our clients can be assured that all staff at Blakeney Leigh undertaking for role of CDM Co-coordinator on their projects have suitable training and experience that is regularly updated by our retained health and safety advisors.
