ERICPD
• Eliminate
• Reduce (e.g. exposure, frequency)
• Isolate (Process, Energy, need for access)
• Controls (Engineering, Machinery, Guarding)
• PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)
• Discipline (clear safety/site rules, signs, training etc.)
Basic Safety Accountabilities
 Duties of Designer

Who is a designer?
any person
(including a client, contractor or other person referred to in these
Regulations) who in the course or furtherance of a business—
(a) prepares or modifies a design; or
(b) arranges for, or instructs, any person under their control to
do so,
relating to a structure, or to a product or mechanical or electrical
system intended for a particular structure
a person is deemed to prepare a design
where a design is prepared by a person under their control;
 Duties of Designer
Coordination and cooperation
• Liaise with any other designers to establish how different aspects
of designs interact with and influence health and safety
– Includes temporary and permanent works
• Co-operate with contractors and principal contractors
– Knowledge and experience in practicalities of building the
design
• Design reviews
– Focus on H&S matters alongside other key aspects of the
project
– Frequency and level of detail proportionate to scale and
complexity
Duties of Designer
 Duties of Designer

Design information
• Designers have a duty to provide H&S information about:
– The design (to other duty holders)
– Significant risks that cannot be eliminated (to the principal
contractor)
• Significant risks are those that could be:
– Difficult to manage
– Unusual
– Not obvious
• Information should be comprehensible
– And provided as soon as is practicable.

lap spacing?

GRP used as
lighter and
quicker to install
 Practical Issues Vs Design
Cannot backfill until roof slab installed,
Difficult access. Longer temporary
works?

Compaction under ‘L’ bars?

 Safety in Execution

PRINCIPLE CONTRACTOR & HIS DUTIES

Who is the principal contractor?

• The contractor in overall charge of the construction phase
• PC must be appointed by the client
• There should only be one principal contractor for a project at any
time

Attributes of a principal contractor:

• Able to deliver the project in a way that secures health and
safety
• Necessary skills, knowledge and resources
• Understanding of roles and responsibilities
 Safety in Execution

What the principal contractor has to do?

• Prepare a construction phase plan that ensures work is carried
out without risks to health and safety
• Implement the plan and facilitate co-operation between
contractors
• Monitor review, revise and update the plan
• Secure the site
• Provide welfare facilities
• Provide site induction
• Liaise on design
• Provide information for the Health and Safety File
 Safety in Execution
• Workers
• People who work for or under the control of contractors on a
construction site must:
• Be consulted about matters which affect their health, safety
and welfare
• Take care of their own health and safety and others who may
be affected by their actions
• Report anything they see which is likely to endanger either
their own or others’ health and safety
• Cooperate with their employer, fellow workers, contractors
and other duty-holders
 Safety in Execution
• Falls (from heights)

• Trench collapse

• Scaffold collapse

• Electric shock and arc flash/arc blast

• Failure to use proper personal protective equipment

• Repetitive motion injuries

 Critical Milestones in Planning
• Tasks Vs Milestone
• Task – completion of an activity
• Milestone – Percentage progress compared
to final goal

• Correlate this with project (i.e. Trekking/this

training/billing)
Check lists & Inspection forms
Check lists & Inspection forms
 Optional Plans to Mitigate delays

• Identify risk in the tasks

• Observe operations
• Communicate with stake
holders

Communication • There are solutions

• Divide the task in to subtasks
