Posted By GavinR Hi, Prob a very easy question but cannot put my finger on it. If a client has a building built with the intention of leasing it out to other persons what legal requirement under H&S law means they must ensure that building is provided with risk controlled, e.g. walk out hazards into car parks, etc. CDM designers only seems to cover construction, maintenance and cleaning but not use? (Have i mis read this?) Section 4 of HASW is a little vague- or so i feel and not sure if it applies to my question? Sorry if this is stupidly easy but think i've developed a mental block with this! Cheers in advance, Gav

Posted By Jonathan Sandler CMIOSH Look at landlords requirements under their duty to provide, safe access and egress, plant and equipment, i.e lifts, hoists, cradles, fire alarms and emergency lighting, test certs for electricity 5 year, gas, if on site, legionella testing, safe common parts, duty to maintain the external of the building, this list should give you some idea, it is not the full list but any EHO would help you with any questions you might have, if not EHO then speak to an Insurance Company. Any questions you could email direct. regards
