Construction Health and Safety Services Construction Site Health and Safety Inspections

Introduction

Site Health and Safety Inspections by independent competent health and safety professionals are now considered an essential part of construction site health and safety arrangements.

These inspections provide reassurance and peace of mind to the Clients that the construction work on their projects is being carried out in accordance with legal and best practice requirements and an opportunity for Principal Contractors and Contractors to demonstrate that the safe systems of work and good health and safety standards are being followed on their sites.

Importantly, Site Health and Safety Inspections form part of the proactive site monitoring arrangements to regularly identify any shortcomings and areas of improvements before they result in any incident or accident on site.

Safescope Approach

At Safescope we have been working with construction contractors since 2008 and have been carrying out regular (mostly monthly) Site Health and Safety Inspections for their sites. In a typical year our team usually carry out around 500 Site Health and Safety Inspections on construction sites in London and East of England regions.

Our Site Health and Safety Inspections service has been very successful due to the following;

  • We specialise in CDM and Construction Health and Safety, hence all our team who carry out the inspections are trained to required levels (including NEBOSH) qualifications and experienced in construction health and safety
  • We have create a bespoke Site Health and Safety Inspection Template which is very through and provides an objective and impartial view of the site conditions.
  • Our approach is to proactively support the site managers and supervisors to manage the identified site health and safety issues in a practical and sensible manner.
  • We aim not to be nit picking, unnecessarily find holes and be awkward but more as a professional help and support to identify the site issues with real risk to health and safety from an independent external perspective.
  • We aim to send a formal Site Health and Safety Inspection Report within 24 hours of the site visit.
  • We do not use any external consultants, all our staff who visit the construction sites are in-house employed, qualified and trained construction health and safety professionals.
  • We tend to carry out Site Health and Safety Inspections unannounced to see the real site conditions.

Based in Ipswich - Suffolk, we have been carrying out Site Health and Safety Inspection on construction sites in London, East of England (East Anglia), East Midlands, South East Regions and nationally.
