The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007 (CDM) apply to all construction projects, regardless of their size or complexity. This workshop will look in detail at the legislative requirements as well as the application of the accompanying CDM Approved Code of Practice, which incorporates the roles and responsibilities of each duty holder who are accountable for their application, including the Client, Designer, Principal Contractor, CDM Coordinator and Contractor. This workshop will involve syndicate exercises using case studies so that typical problems associated with the management of CDM can be discussed.

This is an essential one-day event for any CDM duty holder, Client, CDM Coordinator, Designer, Principal Contractor or Contractor. Prior knowledge of health and safety is preferred.
