How do I appoint a CDM Co-ordinator and what does one do?
The role of the CDM Co-ordinator is to provide the client with a key project advisor in respect of construction health and safety risk management matters. The CDM- Co-ordinator should assist and advise the client on appointment of competent contractors and the adequacy of management arrangements; ensure proper co-ordination of the health and safety aspects of the design process; facilitate good communication and co-operation and co-operation between team members and prepare the health and safety file. By being involved with the client and designers early in the process, the CDM-C can make a significant contribution to reducing risks to workers during construction, and to contractors and end-users who work on or in the structure after construction. This is something that we can help with. Blue Planet is a member of the Association for Project Safety (formerly the Association of Planning Supervisors).
