18 Enforcement Notices Improvement Notices: Statutory examinations Risk assessment COSHH (Control and/or assessment) Management arrangements

19 Challenges faced by HSE

20 So what next? Effective modern regulator Growing commercial activities Investing in people and capability Operational effectiveness & efficiency Funding Maintain focus on where the greatest risks exist and where we (and you) can have the greatest impact

21 What is HSE looking at in 2015/16? Investigations Subject to selection criteria Inspections: > Inspections following an investigation > Priority Local Inspection > Higher risk sectors and activities > Single issue inspections Stakeholder work

22 What stakeholders will see Fewer, but targeted inspections to those areas where there is greatest risk Fewer proactive inspections in lower risk areas who meet their obligations HSE working with local government and partners

23 General Manufacturing etc Woodworking Meat/Poultry Bakeries Plastics Brickworks Potteries Ship/boat building Asbestos transfer LA waste collections Waste & Recycling (general) Fairgrounds Migrant workers Radiography Quarries Agriculture

24 Construction CDM 2015 Local initiatives Refurbishment Timber frames Health Major Construction Housebuilding Projects (smaller sites) Working Well Fragile roofwork Together Temp. Demountable structures Asbestos removal

25 CDM: broadly the same Application to all projects Role of the Principal Contractor Part 4 technical standards for construction sites Schedule 2 welfare requirements Co-ordinators for H&S in the pre- and construction phases

26 Outline of main changes Simplified structure Client greater responsibility Domestic client exemption removed CDM co-ordinator role - removed Principal Designer role (PD) introduced Competence removed in its current form Construction phase plan for all projects Threshold for appointments more than 1 contractor Notification is a stand alone requirement not trigger point for additional duties

27 Summary CDM 2015 Simplified Regulations Greater relevance to small projects Applies to all construction projects Strengthened client role Embedding the co-ordination function within the project team rather than within the role of an individual (CDMC) Removal of exemption for domestic clients Removal of explicit competence requirements

28 HSE s approach on sites No change to HSE s approach to inspection, investigation and enforcement Risk based, sensible and proportionate Looking beyond the site gate where failure to manage risk Construction phase plan

29 Fee for intervention (FFI) Introduced 2012 Independent Review 2014 > acknowledges challenges > proven effective in sharing the cost burden > not a cash cow > Review recommends: Extending the scheme, create a level playing field Threshold remains the same Continues to be applied fairly Keep Disputes process under review Consider re-drafting letters (improve clarity) Source: Fee for Intervention (FFI) - The First Eighteen Month s Experience, Report by the Independent FFI Review Panel
