What are the CDM Regulations?

The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM) are UK regulations that set out legal duties for managing health and safety on construction projects. Their aim is to reduce risk by improving planning, coordination and communication throughout the life of a project, from design through to construction and completion.

“For every incident you see, there are many more warning signs you didn’t.” - Frank Bird

Construction incidents rarely happen without warning. They typically result from early warning signs being missed, ignored or normalised over time on site.

Our construction services help UK contractors identify these issues before they become accidents. From Yorkshire to sites across the UK, we provide the structured CDM support and construction safety expertise that protects workers and keeps projects moving.

Risk Assesments

Construction

Construction sites often present multiple hazards, making risk assessments a key part of maintaining a safe and legally compliant work environment. Our construction risk assessments help you and your team identify workplace hazards, evaluate their impact and implement effective safety measures. By proactively addressing risks, we help construction businesses like yours reduce accidents, improve site safety and stay compliant with UK and international health and safety regulations.

Fire Risk Assessments

Construction

A well-managed construction site includes robust fire safety measures to protect workers, equipment and materials. Our fire risk assessments provide a structured approach to identifying potential fire hazards and ensuring that appropriate preventative measures are in place.

We work with contractors and site managers to assess fire risks related to the site activities, offering clear, practical recommendations to keep your site safe and compliant with fire safety regulations.

Health & Safety Inspections

Construction

We take a hands-on approach to site safety, working directly with your team to identify risks and improve working conditions. By walking the site, observing tasks and engaging with workers, we assess hazards, compliance with HSE regulations and overall safety practices. Our site inspections provide tailored recommendations to enhance site safety, helping your project stay compliant, efficient and risk-aware.

Construction Phase Plans

Construction

A Construction Phase Plan (CPP) is a legal requirement under CDM regulations, ensuring that all health and safety procedures are in place before and during a project. We create comprehensive construction phase plans tailored to your project size, risks and site-specific requirements. Our CPPs cover site safety management, hazard identification, emergency procedures and compliance requirements, helping construction teams work efficiently and safely.

Traffic Management Plans

Construction

Construction sites often involve heavy vehicle movement, making traffic management plans a legal responsibility for worksite safety and efficiency. Our construction traffic management plans provide clear guidance on vehicle routes, pedestrian access and restricted areas, reducing congestion and minimizing the risk of collisions. By implementing safe traffic control measures, we help construction teams maintain a smooth and hazard-free site operation.

Health & Safety Audits

Construction

A health and safety audit is an essential tool for construction businesses looking to maintain compliance, improve site safety and identify areas for improvement. Our audits review site conditions, safety policies, training procedures and other compliance with HSE standards, providing actionable recommendations to enhance workplace safety. We help construction teams ensure they meet legal obligations and industry best practices.

Accident & Incident Investigation

Construction

When a workplace accident occurs, understanding the root cause is important for preventing similar future incidents. Our accident and incident investigation services analyze on-site accidents, near misses and safety breaches, helping businesses develop corrective action plans. By addressing underlying issues and improving workplace safety procedures, construction companies can reduce risks, improve compliance, and protect their workforce. Additionally, our service will help businesses to report incidents correctly.

Health & Safety Policies

Construction

A clear and well-structured health and safety policy helps construction businesses stay compliant and protect workers. We develop custom health and safety policies covering manual handling, PPE requirements, working at height, fire safety and more. Our policies are tailored to your site’s specific risks and align with HSE regulations, ensuring your business has a solid foundation for workplace safety.

“The best leaders create a culture where safety is not a priority, but a value.” - Stephen Covey

In construction, safety is shaped every day by leadership decisions, behaviours on site and the pressure people work under. When safety is treated as a box-ticking exercise, risks become normalised, warning signs are missed and serious incidents become more likely.

Supporting Safer Behaviour, Stronger Leadership and Healthier Teams

At DuoDynamic Safety Solutions, we help construction businesses strengthen safety culture at management and workforce level, focusing on the real factors that influence behaviour on site.

Our support includes:

Behavioural safety and culture workshops.
Stress Risk Assessments.
SIF awareness and prevention support.

By addressing behaviour, leadership and workplace pressures alongside traditional health and safety controls, we help businesses move from reactive compliance to proactive risk management. The result is safer sites, more engaged teams and stronger decision-making where it matters most.
