- - - - Concept of a safe person in surveying safely 2018
        
        Each individual assumes individual behavioural responsibility for their own, their colleagues and others' health and safety while at work
  - - - 1) To ensure clients, designers, contractors and others consider the H&S of those constructing, maintaining and demolishing the works
      - 2) Places Statutory duties on clients, principal designer, designers and contractors to plan, manage and coordinate H&S throughout the project
      - 3) Improves safety on site through design, planning and management
    - - 1) Client
        
        Client's Duties
        
        Ensure that the principal designer and contractor are appointed where required
        
        Ensure the roles, functions and responsibilities of the project team are clear
        
        Ensure that the people they appoint have the necessary skills to capably manage health and safety risk
        
        Ensure sufficient time and resources are allocated
        
        Ensure effective mechanisms are in place for members of the project team to communicate
        
        Ensuring relevant information is prepared and provided by duty holders
        
        Ensure that principal designers and principal contractors carry out their duties
        
        Ensuring welfare facilities are provided
      - 2) Principal designer
        
        The principal designer influences how risks to H&S are managed throughout a project. Design decisions made during the pre-construction phase have a significant influence in ensuring the project is delivered in a way that secure the H&S of everyone affected by the work. They must:
        
        1) Plan, manage, monitor and coordinate H&S in the pre-construction phase
        
        2) Help and advise the client in bringing together pre-construction information and provide the information designers and contractors need to carry out their duties
        
        What is Pre-construction information (PCI)?
        
        PCI plays a vital role in the tender documentation. It enables prospective contractors to be fully aware of the project's H&S and welfare requirements. This will allow prospective contractors to have a level playing field as far as H&S is concerned on which to provide tender submissions
        During its development, the PCI can provide a focus at which H&S considerations of the designs are brought together under the control of the principal designer
        
        What's included in the PCI document?

        3) Work with any other designers on the project to eliminate foreseeable H&S risk to anyone affected by the work and, where that is not possible, take steps to reduce or control those risks.
        
        4) Ensure that everyone involved in the pre-construction phase communicates and co-operates, coordinating their work wherever required
        
        5) Liaise with the principal contractor, keeping them informed of any risks that need to be controlled during the construction phase
      - 3) Principal contractor
        
        Principal contractors have an important role in managing H&S risks during the construction phase so they must have the skills, knowledge, experience and, where relevant, organisational capacity to carry out this work. They must:
        
        1) Plan, manage, monitor and coordinate the entire construction phase.
        
        2) Take account of the H&S risks to everyone affected by the work including the public, in planning and managing measures need to control them
        
        3) Liaise with the client and principal designer for the duration of the project to ensure that all risks are effectively managed.
        
        4) Prepare a written construction phase plan before the construction phase begins, implement and then regularly review and revise it to make sure it remains fit for purpose
        
        5) Have ongoing arrangements in place for managing H&S throughout he construction phase
        
        6) Consult and engage with workers about their health, safety and welfare
        
        7) Ensure suitable welfare facilities are provided from the start and maintained throughout the construction phase.
        
        8) Check that anyone they appoint has the skills, knowledge, experience and where relevant organisational capability to carry out their work safely and without risk to health
        
        9) Ensure all works have site specific inductions and any further information and training they need
        
        10) Take steps to prevent unauthorised access to the site
        
        11) Liaise with the principal designer to share any information relevant to the planning, management, monitoring and coordination of the pre-construction phase
      - 4) Designers
        
        Designer's duties
        
        Ensuring they have the necessary skills
        
        Not commencing work unless they are satisfied that the client is aware of their duties
        
        Reporting instances where they or others are working in a way that puts them or anyone else in danger
        
        Where it is not possible to eliminate the health and safety risk where preparing or modifying design, designers must ensure appropriate information is included in the H&S file about the reasonably practicable steps that have been taken to control the risks
      - 5) Contractors
      - 6) Workers
    - - Definition - The form which is sent to the HSE to notify them of a relevant construction project
        
        When is a project notifiable to the HSE under CDM Regulations?
        
        1) Last longer than 30 working days and have more than 20 workers at the same time at any point on the project or
        
        2) Exceed 500 person days
        
        Who issues the F10?
        
        This is the client's responsibility, however the F10 is often delegated to the principal designer or H&S advisor
- - - - Contractors must plan, manage and monitor construction work under their control so that it is carried out without risks to health and safety.
  - - - RAMS are a statement that details out the methodology of the way the work will be completed. The method statement should outline the hazards and include a step-by-step guide on how to execute safely. They will include
        
        • Introduction – This will usually state information about the location of the site and what the RAMS covers
        
        • A Method statement – This will detail how the works will be conducted in a safe manner. It will list out all provisions required, given a step by step detailed approach.
        
        • Training requirements
        
        • Plant, tools or access requirements
        
        • Nearest hospital & first aid facilities within the site
        
        • Risk assessment – This identifies the hazards associated with doing the works, who might be affected, a risk rating of the hazard based on likelihood and complexity as well as the required mitigation which ensures the risk rating of that hazard can then be lowered.
  - - - • A project description
      - • Management of the work
      - • Arrangements for controlling significant risks on the site
      - • The health and safety file
        
        A project’s health and safety file is part of the overall health and safety management system required by the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999. It covers all relevant aspects of health and safety, ensuring that the welfare of people are at the core of the project and resulting asset. A Health and Safety File is a repository of health and safety information that serves as a legal record, benefiting both clients and end users – from initial construction through use, cleaning, maintenance, alterations and refurbishment, and demolition.
