SMSTS Course - Day 2 Completed

Posted on: 26/04/2023

Health, Safety, and Welfare in the Construction Industry Discussed. 

On Day 2 of the SMSTS Course, the delegates on the course discussed the pro-active approaches to ensuring the health, safety, and welfare of workers and managers on construction sites in the UK and across the planet.

Our starting point was the importance of providing essential welfare facilities on site to meet the minimum standard required under the CDM Regulations 2015.

We also discussed and undertook practical exercises in those hazards which, if not adequately controlled, result in long-term ill-health effects on workers on construction projects.

In particular, we focused on the low cost practical applications which can be adopted and employed to control the risks associated with noise, dust, vibration, asbestos and lead. 

We would like to thank our delegates for their involvement in the day's training - another great day thanks.
