A construction phase plan is a health and safety plan specifically created for construction. It’s a tailored plan for a construction project or work environment which ensures that key health and safety legislation is abided to and understood. This protects your business and your work force to minimise the risk of accidents and injury.
Construction comes with specific health and safety regulations due to the unique nature of the working environment and activities. With heavy loads, debris, construction tools and risks of falling, there are a number of issues which need to be assessed and addressed to keep everyone safe.
