Does CDM apply to “non-work” activities?
CDM only applies to construction projects involving people who are at work. CDM can apply to projects involving people who are not at work if sufficient other people are at work on a construction work on the project. For example: • a charity may employ people to manage and direct the work done by volunteers • groups of “self-builders” may form a company to administer the works on behalf of the group. They may then hire in professionals to do some operations e.g. specialist groundwork – the specialist would therefore be at work.
