You are all missing the point about the CDM Regulations 2015
Almost everyone coming onto your site is subject to CDM 2015. If a contractor is painting a window, CDM 2015; changing a lock on a door, CDM 2015; knocking down a 6 metre long wall, CDM 2015.
Failing to acknowledge and action this can lead to criminal convictions, fines and even a jail term.
A contractor is anyone who directly employs or engages construction workers or manages construction work. Contractors include: sub-contractors and any individual self-employed worker or business that carries out, manages or controls construction work. They must have the skills, knowledge and experience and, where relevant, the organisational capability to carry out the work safely and without risk to health.
Make sure you cover CDM Awareness for all employees.

The aim of the CCNSG Safety Passport Scheme is to ensure a basic knowledge of health and safety for all site personnel to enable them, after appropriate site induction, to work on site more safely with lower risk to themselves and others. National Course is a two day course for basic site safety and is valid for three years from the date of the course. The Renewal Course is designed as a one day refresher course for those who have already passed the CCNSG National Course. This has to be taken within three months of the Safety passport expiry date. If it is not taken within the specified time then the two day CCNSG National Course will have to be retaken.
