Health and Safety

Construction is the UK’s largest, most diverse, and often most dangerous industry employing some 2.2 million workers across a complex range of crafts, businesses and contracted services. Health and safety management in the industry operates within a complex framework of legislation and best practice guidance to help ensure legal compliance, risk mitigation and liability management to protect construction workers and anyone who might be affected by construction and related activities.

Health and safety management is not just a compliance issue but is also closely connected to the duty of care employers have to their workforce, society and the environment.
