The HSE have ensured contractors work within a construction legal framework called CDM when carrying out construction projects. The Construction Design and Management Regulations (CDM 2015) are the main set of regulations for managing the health, safety and welfare of construction projects. CDM applies to all building and construction work and includes new build, demolition, refurbishment, extensions, conversions, repair and maintenance. This guide is based on sound industry practice and will particularly help small businesses and organisations deliver building and construction projects in a way that prevents injury and ill health.Tags: CDM 2015>>>F10>>> Pre-Construction Information>>>Pre-Construction Phase>>>Construction Phase>>>Health and Safety File
