  7. Small Sites Strategy – especially domestic refurbishment • 2009/10* - 76% fatal accidents on smaller sites (>5). • Inspector feedback = standards are poor. • Increased inspection activity in 2010/11. • Robust enforcement as required. • Simple, straightforward guidance. • Working Well Together (WWT) as partner. *in first 6 months of year

  8. Fire • Targeting high risk – e.g. timber frame • Checking risk considered from very start of projects • Checking that precautions on site are adequate • Updated HSG 168 – Fire Safety in Construction

  9. Local Authorities as Client • For LA procured projects, ensuring procurement is in line with OGC principles, particularly OGC10 Aims • To identify contribution of CDM duty holders to site risks • To promote the CDM Regulations and ensure compliance • To raise awareness of the messages in CDM 2007 • Client role • Reduce paperwork • Competence

  12. Respiratory Risks Over-exposure = serious health risk • Significant concern on silicosis and lung cancer • Statistics on the problem are imprecise, but….. • Significant proportion of the industry exposed • Level of likely exposure not fully understood Pictorial Depiction of WEL

  13. Respiratory Risks • Identify other Priority Areas: • Continue to target kerbs, paving and block cutting • Other Cutting Activities • Wall Chasing • Re-pointing • Masonry Work • Site Housekeeping • Scabbling and Surface Grinding • Breaking, especially in enclosed spaces • Crushing and Screening demolition material • Tunneling

  14. Improving Dutyholder Compliance Aim: To improve identified dutyholder performance to an acceptable standard • Targeting resource at companies who reveal poor H & S standards and inadequate management arrangements to put it right. • Improvements in health and safety standards. • Focus on SME regional contractors and other regional dutyholders.
