WOBO Governor David Gibson acknowledges the work carried out by the Health and Safety Executive in respect of Fire Safety.
HSE has published a revised version of our publication Fire safety in construction (HSG168).
This latest (third) edition contains guidance explaining the need to eliminate, and or mitigate fire risks during the design phase (where practicable), how to prevent site fires from starting and ensuring people’s safety if they do.
It is aimed at all those involved with construction projects who procure, design, develop and manage construction sites, including clients and designers.
It should help you achieve good fire safety management and compliance with The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015.
