CDM 2007 audit

The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations (CDM) 2007 place a legal duty on Clients to appoint a CDM Co-ordinator on all notifiable projects.

The regulations make it easier for everyone involved in construction projects to comply with their health and safety duties and are aimed at improving the overall management and co-ordination of health, safety and welfare throughout all stages of a construction project.

A CDM 2007 audit from NHBC provides a thorough examination of the management systems put in place by housing and construction companies to comply with the CDM Regulations and to ensure that a company has a robust health and safety management scheme. This would help ensure that:

  • Construction can be carried out without risk to health and safety
  • welfare arrangements are in place before work begins;
  • any structure designed for use as a workplace complies with the Workplace Regulations
  • sufficient time and resources are allocated to achieve these duties and
  • Contractors and designers know how much time is available for planning and preparation before work starts.
