Our health and safety policy is in draft form at present as we are working towards accreditation under the CHAS scheme. The Health and Safety Statement sets out our aims.
We require that all our qualified technical staff pass the ConstructionSkills exam for designers and carry the appropriate CSCS card.
As an architectural practice, we have responsibilities for health and safety in two distinct capacities, firstly, as an employer under the Health and Safety at Work Act and secondly, as a Designer under the provisions for Construction, Design and Management Regulations (CDM).
Overall the practice’s policy is to promote a culture of safety and an awareness of risk amongst the staff in order to protect themselves and others from any hazards connected with its operations. This is achieved through training and also by setting up our office management and operating systems so that consideration of health and safety is a natural part of what we do.
Details of our implementation of this policy within the workplace are set out in the Health and Safety Manual. Topics covered are:
Details of our approach to the implementation of this policy as designers under the provisions of the CDM Regulations are described in CDM Manual. Topics covered are:
