No Nonsense CDM London

London CDM Consultancy

It needs careful planning, attention to detail and commitment from the top.

We’re not all conkers bonkers.

Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of jobs-worths out there getting Health & Safety a bad press; donkey derbys banned, pancake races cancelled, step-ladders outlawed, kids being made to wear goggles to play conkers and countless other reports of dis-proportionate, risk averse behaviour. While many of these stories have been miss-reported, others are the result of well intentioned, but misinformed and/or poorly trained Management, making bad choices.

Health and safety professionals understand the frustration felt by many about nanny state stories. We also understand the real aims of health & safety – taking reasonably practicable measures to ensure that significant risks are adequately controlled. Check out some more ‘elf n safety myths here.

The Business Case

Managing health and safety is an important part of looking after any business and it makes good sense. Construction is a highly creative and problem solving industry and fully embracing the CDM Regulations can bring substantial commercial benefits. Acting as your CDM Consultants we can help you reap these benefits by providing key advice on compliance and health and safety risk management.
