CDM Co-ordinators & Project Managers

CDM Co-ordinator Duties

So, what does a CDM Co-ordinator do?

 

A CDM Co-ordinator is only required on notifiable projects  -  that is those projects likely to involve MORE THAN 30 days or 500 person days of construction work.

 

The CDM Co-ordinator’s primary function is to act as the Client’s key project advisor in respect of construction health and safety risk management, and manage the flow of health and safety information between clients, designers and contractors.

 

The Approved Code of Practice (ACoP) summarises the CDM Co-ordinator duties as follows:-

 

· Advise and assist the client with their duties.

· Notify the HSE.

· Co-ordinate health and safety aspects of design work and co-operate with others involved with the project.

· Facilitate good communication between client, designers and contractors.

· Liaise with Principal Contractor regarding ongoing design work.

· Identify, collect and pass on pre-construction information.

· Prepare / update health and safety file.
