Construction (Design and Management) - Notifiable and Non-notifiable Projects

Notifiable and Non-notifiable Projects

Projects are classified as ‘notifiable’ if they take longer than 30 days or longer than 500 person days (e.g., 50 people working 10 days on the construction project). Under the CDM regulation, the client appoints a competent Principal Contractor and CDM co-ordinator, who notifies the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) by using Form 10 (F10). Failure to do so means the client must take the duties of Principal Contractor and CDM co-ordinator assigned to the parties under CDM 2007.

Non-notifiable projects are those that are likely to take less than 30 days of construction time. Although there is no legal requirement for a formal appointment of a Principle Contractor or CDM co-ordinator or a construction phase plan for non-notifiable projects, regulation does require co-operation and co-ordination between all members of the project team.

Famous quotes containing the word projects:

    One of the things that is most striking about the young generation is that they never talk about their own futures, there are no futures for this generation, not any of them and so naturally they never think of them. It is very striking, they do not live in the present they just live, as well as they can, and they do not plan. It is extraordinary that whole populations have no projects for a future, none at all.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
