Health and safety is important to everyone nowadays, especially
with the burgeoning extent of legislation and regulations in the
area both in UK terms but perhaps more importantly within and
across the European Community. One of the industries most affected
by this is the building and construction sector, which because of
its traditionally poor record in this respect and its widespread
and under-policed activities is now subject to the Construction,
Design and Management (CDM) Regulations. These require that every
project involving building or demolition work which is undertaken,
regardless of the industry concerned and for what purpose, must be
planned and documented according to these safety regulations and
procedures. Non-compliance can attract heavy penalties, including
fines and prison sentences. In addition, the possibilities of
actions like this, and their contingent financial costs, are
beginning to determine a whole philosophy to underpin business
management. It is therefore vital to understand exactly what legal
obligations and duties are inherent in either managing, contracting
or carrying out a given piece of work. Lack of knowledge of this
nature can prove to be very costly, so this book will show you how
to find your way around the maze of rules and regulations in order
to improve your business efficiency and reduce exposure to
financial risk.
