CDM Regulations

Legal Requirements In 2007 the new CDM Regulations came into force, to which all dutyholders on a construction project on a range of participants i.e. client, designers, planning supervisor & principal contractor must comply.

The client has to appoint a competent CDM Co-ordinator to advise the client on the project.

Health and Safety

Our Approach

Our CDM Coordinators will be responsible for advising the client to ocmply with their duties under the CDM 2007 Regulations. We assist the client in improving the health and safety within their industry, attaining the right people for the right job to manage the risks on site and focus on effective planning and managing of the risks.

As your CDM Coordinator our advisors can:

  • Advise and assist clients with their duties
  • Co-ordinate design work, planning and other preparation for construction, where relevant to health and safety
  • Liaise with the principal contractor about design developments during the construction phase that are likely to have implications for health and safety and the construction phase plan
  • Manage the flow of health and safety information between clients, designers and contractors. This includes locating existing information or advising the client how to fill significant gaps, e.g. by commissioning surveys
  • Produce or update a relevant, user friendly, health and safety file suitable for future use at the end of the construction phase
  • Advise clients on the competence and resources of their appointees
  • Notify HSE about the project on behalf of the client
  • Develop effective management arrangements for the project and review and revise them
  • Carry out early planning and, sometimes, preparation for the construction work
  • Advice the client on the suitability of the construction phase plan (for the initial construction work) and welfare facilities before construction work starts
