Project Supervisor Design Process
Health & Safety Services (HSS) has established itself as the industry leader for the provision of Project Supervisor Design Process (PSDP) Services. Under the old regulations, on behalf of our clients we held the role of PSDS on many of their projects, so we had the experience and knowledge built up to enable us take on the more demanding role of PSDP. Since the introduction of the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (Construction) Regulation in November 2006 there are a number of changes to the old regulations and we have highlighted a sample of these changes below.
The following data is quoted from the Construction Regulations 2006, S.I. No 504.
- Regulation 6: Project Supervisor Design Process.
- Client Must appoint Project Supervisor Design Process & Project Supervisor Construction Stage
- Client Must obtain written confirmation of acceptance
- Regulation 7:
- Client has a duty to ascertain suitability of Project Supervisor, Designer & Contractors
- Regulation 8:
- Client must keep a safety file available: Purpose-safe future maintence, demolition, construction,extension, alteration and other construction works.
- Regulation 9:
- Client shall provide a Preliminary Safety & Health Plan to everyone tendering for the role of PSCS
- Regulation 11:
- Project Supervisor Design Process – PSDP shall take account of the General Principles of Prevention during design & preparation of a project.
HSS have a dedicated PSDP team in place, who understands the design and construction process. Our team of professionals work on a daily basis on construction projects, and they are all from a Health & Safety background. HSS provide a sensible approach to the role of PSDP, not dictating to our clients, but working in partnership with our clients, to ensure that our clients are protected from the risks of non-compliance by advising and assisting them, to ensure that all requirements under the Safety, Health and Welfare (Construction) Regulations are met.
