CIOB Consultation Responses
A key role for the CIOB is to work with governments, industry, education stakeholders, and the media to promote our standards and views. The following submissions have been developed and/or endorsed by the CIOB.
Date: | Title: | To: |
| May 2011 | Proposed amendment to the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995 (RIDDOR) - The CIOB considers the proposed change from 3 to 7 day reporting to be a retrograde step. It severely undermines the culture of good health and safety theory and practice at a time when annual fatalities in the construction sector have risen to their highest levels for four years. | Health and Safety Executive (HSE) |
| October 2009 | New Regulations requiring the notification of Tower Cranes operating on Construction Sites | Health and Safety Executive (HSE) |
