HSE plans CDM spot checks in December
The Health & Safety Executive is to carry out a series of spot checks on construction sites across the region to see how well the industry has adapted to new regulations aimed at reducing death, injury and ill health.
The HSE's construction division will be working with the sector's construction design and management co-ordinators throughout December in a bid to improve the way the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007 are implemented.
HSE inspectors will also meet with clients and CDM co-ordinators to look at better ways of planning projects to make workers safer during both construction and building maintenance.
