Can be completed by builders, carpenters or decorators used on productions to show they are implementing adequate controls to reduce the risks from their activities, or as an inspection checklist by productions.

This checklist identifies some of the common hazards found on construction sites, and for maintenance work. It is not intended to be an exhaustive list as the hazards will vary on each project. However the list may be of assistance when inspecting the site.
A construction phase plan is needed for all builds. For small builds it’s acceptable for the plan to be a collection of site rules, risk assessments and method statements, however larger or more complex builds require a build-specific, detailed plan.
A generic Risk Assessment for construction activities.
A template to assist productions in creating their CDM health and safety file, ensuring that anyone undertaking future work on a structure or site is informed of the significant health and safety risks that may arise.
A Health and Safety File that contains hazard and safety information required to maintain, store and strike the set safely is needed for long-standing sets and sets that are regularly built and dismantled.
