Guide to CDM Regulations

The FastFrame Summary Guide to the Construction Design & Management (CDM) Regulations 2007.

The construction industry has a poor health and safety record. Serious injury and death happen regularly as a result of construction work. This affects not only workers, but also members of the public. Good management of the construction process is essential to help prevent accidents and ill health in the industry.

This booklet tells you about the new Construction (Design and Management) Regulations. These Regulations apply to construction projects and everyone associated with them: clients, designers, professionals, contractors and site workers. The Regulations are about management of health and safety. Most projects and people are affected. This 24 page booklet written by FastFrame summarises how CDM affects you and tells you how you can get further guidance. The CDM Regulations place new duties on clients, planning supervisors, designers and contractors to plan, co-ordinate and manage health and safety throughout all stages of a construction project.
