Handover
The health and safety file the client gets at the end.
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 health and safety file
The duty
CDM 2015
Where it is used
At handover
What the duty asks for
- The health and safety file: drawings, the residual risks, and how to maintain the building.
- The principal designer prepares it, with information from the principal contractor.
- It is handed to the client at the end of the project.
Good practice
- Build the file from the records the job actually used, not from scratch at the end.
- Know early what is still missing.
- EHSync Projects does not compile the file or hold the job open. Its tasks and milestones can track what is still to hand over.
