The site diary
What happened on the job that day.
This page is a guide to a CDM 2015 duty. It is not a screen in EHSync Projects, and the app does not do this part of the job for you.
Record
The diary
The duty
CDM 2015
Where it is used
Written the same day
What the duty asks for
- Who was on site, what moved, what was held, and the weather if it mattered.
- Written the same day, with photos if they help.
- It supports monitoring the construction phase. It is not a separate book the office has to chase.
Good practice
- Write it the same day, on the job it belongs to.
- Turn what was held into a task with a name.
- In EHSync Projects, comments and files on the project can carry the day's notes.
