CDM 2015 is here
The new CDM Regulations finally came into force on 6 April 2015 with a transition period of six months for projects already underway and with that have come extensive new duties for Clients, Designers, Project Managers, (who take on the role of Principal Designer), and Contractors. And this will now include all domestic projects.
But don't worry, we can help.
Key to these changes is the transfer of duties currently carried out by the CDM C to Principal Designers, Clients and Contractors. The regulations are similar to the previous 2007 CDM Regs in that any member of the team can carry out the role of CDM PD, but they must be competent in H&S and be a designer as defined by the Regulations.

Company Policies
Health and Safety Policy Statement
It is the recognised policy of the Company to attach the greatest importance to the Health and Safety at work of all those who may be affected by its actions and decisions.
It is the Company's policy to do everything practicable to prevent personal injury/ accidents and to safeguard against risks to others.
In supervising others the Company must take the initiative in informing and advising, have due regard to health and safety in the issue of instructions, and set a personal example of the standards expected.
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 places a responsibility on everyone at work to take reasonable care of their own health and safety and of those who may be affected by their actions. This includes wearing suitable personal protective equipment, making full use of protective equipment provided by others, and never intentionally or recklessly interfering with or misusing anything provided in the interests of health and safety.
The Management of Health, Safety & Welfare Regulations place an onus on the Company in carrying out its core operations to consider the risks to health and safety of all those working for the Company either as Contractors or Directly Employed and risk assessment shall be carried out for all Company premises and work operations.
In carrying its core work the Construction Design and Management Regulations 2007 impose a particular onus to consider buildability, communications, risk assessment and reductions wherever practicable to risks to health and safety during planning, execution and completion of projects.
This is a statement of intent and similar standards will be expected of those engaged by the Company to carry out any works on behalf of the company.
This statement is issued to all those engaged by the Company to carry out works and in Company documentation.
The Company has a good safety record but accidents still occur. By implementation of this policy we can strive to prevent more accidents. A little forethought may save a life.
