Why this training matters
The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations set out how construction projects must be planned and managed so health and safety is built in from the start.
CDM Regulations explains what the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 are and who they apply to. It then focuses on pre-construction planning and preparation, where most of the duties sit. It suits construction workers who plan the design and delivery of projects, and the people who manage them.
