CONIAC Publish Fire Risk Management Guidance

The Construction Industry Advisory Committee (CONIAC) have published new fire safety guidance covering the responsibilities of different roles under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM). this focuses on how fire safety can be managed at each stage and phase.

The guidance aims to provide an understandable and structured framework for those with duties under CDM to follow. This includes flow charts and duty holder tables which clearly outline actions that should be taken and the responsibilities of duty holders. These flow charts and tables using the same colour coding as the CITB (Construction Industry Training Board) guidance for CDM making it easier for individuals to use both sets of guidance.
