Construction sites and contracts

HEALTH, SAFETY AND DOCUMENTS FOR CONSTRUCTION SITES

Occupational health and safety management for the construction industry is particularly complex due to the amount of risks to which workers are exposed.

Construction safety managers and safety coordinators during the planning and execution phases (referred to in Italian as “CSP” and “CSE”) may have to supervise multiple construction sites at the same time in which there are numerous companies to be verified.

In the case of more than one company involved, the Operational Safety Plan (OSP) for the building industry is drawn up following the Coordination and Safety Plan, which indicates the organization of the area, the measures taken for risk reduction and the coordination procedures.

SAFETY SPECIFICITIES FOR CONTRACTS

In the management of contracts, Law Decree 81/2018 requires the client to draw up a special document related to the tender or work contract: the Single Document for the Assessment of Risks from Interference (referred to in Italian as “DUVRI”).

In fact, the management of contractors in the company is a critical process, often the cause of accidents and emergency situations.

The intermingling of people from different organizations can generate risk situations, and the failure to coordinate the workers and the equipment and vehicles they use can result in significant critical issues for the client.
