Hi ,
Can anyone help me out by providing me with an answer to a difficult question.
I am looking for the Key Tasks to be undertaken to create a Project Health and Safety plan, not a Construction Phase Health and Safety Plan.
Project being from Development of the project through construction to decomisioning.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Do you mean a plan to ensure that the requirements of 'Health and Safety' (being made up of the myriad of different legislation, ACoP's etc) are met throughout the project?
Just trying to understand your question...

Project Phases as you describe (for the structure) are enshrined in CDM duties starting from pre-construction and on via CPP to H&S File. CDM is concerned with 'cradle to grave' issues.
I'd be wary of treating "Health and Safety" as a separate plan. Risk mitigation issues should be integrated into the main Project Plan and relevant agenda via appropriate milestones.
HSE and CITB Guides provide plentiful info.

Johnboy, Ron makes a great point.
If you are the health and safety bod on the project you should make sure you attend every single meeting re the project and get your points accross to every one of the decision makers. Make sure H&S becomes integral to the planning and actioning.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the replies, sorry my question relates to a Project Health and Safety plan for a Client at the concept , development stage of the project, then the Construction Phase plan is set up by the PC with the information gained from the Pre-construction information.
So for me, the key stages of the Project Health and Safety plan at Development stage could be:
A description of the project
Key dates of the project
Roles and Resonibilities for managing the work
Hazard identification and Risk Control through HIRA
Communication, meetings etc
Accident/Incident reporting
Emergency procedures
Contractor Evaluation and Management
Maybe i am going in the wrong direction, any advice would be helpful.
Thanks

There are such things as a Project Execution Plan (PEP) which go under different names depending on the client. These types of plans tend to be client driven and whilst they encompass health and safety elements they tend to be more project management focused.
Working on large infrastructure projects I found the myriad of plans somewhat confusing e.g. quality plan, environmental plan, emergency plan, CPP and so on. In the end there are so many plans you can't see the woods for the trees. Try to avoid going down this route if you can.

-Lifting equipment, crane, vehicles management programme
-Incident investigation
-Organisation Chart
-RESPONSIBILITIES
-EMERGENCY RESPONSE
-Hazard Identification
-Management of Contractors
-Hazardous substances

Interesting point and I agree. They seem to be the norm in the rail industry.

Thanks for the replies ,
I work for a company who has plans for everything but none of them good.
The project health and safety plan is an over arching plan, by the Client , then the Construction Phase H&S Plan issued by PC and then this issued to the Contractors who create their own H&S plan.
Throw in E, Q and Now Security and its a mess!!!
