CDM Coordinator
The CDM (Construction Design Management) 2007 Act is concerned with health and safety issues affecting building projects under construction and in use. Domestic clients (someone who lives, or will live, in the premises where the work is carried out) undertaking domestic projects are excluded from CDM client duties. The CDM client duties apply to domestic premises if the client is a local authority, landlord, housing association, charity, collective of leaseholders or any other trade, business or undertaking (whether for profit or not). We are able to advise on the appointment of a CDM Coordinator.
