Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015
Course Objectives
The new Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015) came into force in April 2015 for Scotland, England and Wales.
Our programme introduces delegates to the foundations of CDM which are to deliver good health and safety practices in the construction industry by helping delegates sensibly plan the work so the risks involved are managed from the outset. We also cover the new requirements introduced in 2015, consider how CDM 2015 links with project management principles and how to apply the regulations in practice.
