What UK Construction Design and Management Regulations 2015 - Client, Designer, and Contractor Duties requires
The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/51) came into force on 6 April 2015 and replaced the CDM Regulations 2007. CDM 2015 applies to all construction projects in Great Britain. Regulation 4 imposes duties on commercial clients to make suitable arrangements for managing a project, ensuring pre-construction information is prepared and provided, and that welfare facilities are in place. Regulation 5 requires a commercial client to appoint a principal designer (PD) and a principal contractor (PC) where more than one contractor will or is likely to work on the project simultaneously. Regulation 6 requires the client to notify the HSE where the project is scheduled to last more than 30 working days with more than 20 simultaneous workers, or will involve more than 500 person-days of construction work, using the HSE F10 notification. Regulation 9 requires the principal designer to plan, manage, monitor, and coordinate the pre-construction phase and to compile and maintain the health and safety file. Regulation 12 requires the principal contractor to plan, manage, monitor, and coordinate the construction phase and to prepare the construction phase plan before construction begins. Regulation 8 imposes duties on all designers to eliminate, reduce, or control foreseeable risks so far as is reasonably practicable. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) enforces CDM 2015 through improvement notices, prohibition notices, and prosecution.
