The Construction (Design & Management) Regulations exist to improve health and safety in the construction industry. These regulations are often referred to as the CDM Regulations and are the main set of regulations for managing the health, safety and welfare of building projects. CDM applies to all building and construction work.
Under the regulations, a client must appoint a Principal Designer to plan, manage and monitor the pre-construction phase and coordinate matters relating to health and safety during the pre-construction phase to ensure that the project is carried out without risks to health and safety.
Peritus regularly undertake the role of Principal Designer/CDM Advisor and we possess the skills, knowledge, experience and organisational capacity related to health and safety in construction. We will advise from the outset to ensure that the Client fully complies with their obligations under the Regulations.
