Health and safety in construction

In the fast-paced world of construction, safety is of paramount importance. From home extensions to infrastructure projects that shape our country, the welfare of workers and the public is our first consideration.

When it comes to creating a culture of safety, construction companies must have robust processes and systems in place.

  • Health and safety legislation
  • Common hazards in the construction industry
  • Implementing health and safety on construction sites
  • Safety planning and risk assessment in construction projects
  • Personal protective equipment (PPE) in construction
  • Training and education for construction safety
  • Construction site inspections and audits
  • Creating a culture of safety on construction sites
  • Site Manager Compliance Kit
  • SSIP Accreditation
  • HSG150 health and safety in construction

Health and safety legislation

Health and safety legislation in the workplace is the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974This legislation sets out the duties of employers, employees, and others. 

Responsibilities of employers

  • Assess risks: Identify risks to employees, customers, and others 
  • Create a policy: Have a written health and safety policy if they employ five or more people 
  • Provide training: Ensure staff are adequately trained 
  • Provide welfare: Ensure adequate welfare provisions are available 
  • Provide information: Ensure employees have access to relevant information, instruction, and supervision 
  • Consult employees: Consult employees about risks and preventive measures 

Responsibilities of employees 

  • Have a duty of care to themselves and others

Other construction-related health and safety legislation

Common hazards in the construction industry

The construction industry is fraught with hazards that can lead to serious accidents if not properly managed.

  • There were 51 fatal injuries to workers in 2023/24
  • 47,000 workers sustained non-fatal injuries at work averaged over the three years 2021/22-2023/24

One of the most prevalent risks is falls, which can occur from heights such as scaffolding, ladders, or roofs.

Another common hazard is the risk of being struck by objects. This can happen when tools or materials are improperly secured or when heavy machinery is involved.

Construction site workers are often close to moving equipment, and the potential for accidents increases.

Exposure to hazardous substances, such as asbestos and silica dust, poses a significant risk.

Implementing health and safety on construction sites

Implementing health and safety processes and systems on construction sites is essential. Many clients now insist that contractors hold a minimum health and safety standard. SSIP (Safety Schemes in Procurement) implemented the standard. SSIP is an umbrella organisation formed in 2009 to reduce the duplication of health and safety assessments. CHAS and PQS are suppliers of the standard.

Below is a health and safety checklist for a typical site construction setup

Safety planning and risk assessment in construction projects

Planning work operations is a key factor in keeping people safe on-site. The process is to develop a method statement of how the work will be executed and then develop a risk assessment. The risk assessment analyses the risks and looks at ways to mitigate them. The project planner may adjust the method statements if the risk assessment finds that the risk is too high.

Ready for use Risk assessment and method statements templates.

Personal protective equipment (PPE) in construction

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is the last line of defence to keep people safe. PPE can include the following:

  • Hard hat
  • His visibility vests and trousers
  • Ear protection
  • Eye protection
  • Lung protection
  • Hand protection
  • Skin protection
  • Foot protection

The site manager must ensure that their workers are provided with the necessary equipment and trained on how to use it effectively. A PPE register is vital to control who had what and when.

Site training

Training and education are fundamental for a safe construction site. On-site training includes:

On-site e-learning to train site workers saves time and cost.

A training register is vital to control who had what and when.

Construction site inspections and audits

Regular inspections and audits of construction sites are critical for ensuring ongoing health and safety compliance.

Inspections help identify potential hazards that may have arisen since the last inspection and ensure that safety measures are effectively implemented.

Inspections can be conducted by internal safety officers or external auditors, providing an objective perspective on the effectiveness of the site’s safety practices.

Creating a culture of safety on construction sites

Creating a safety culture begins with a commitment from leadership to prioritise health and safety measures at all levels of the organisation.

By communicating that health and safety are priorities in the company culture, workers will feel empowered to work safely and promote safety with their workmates.

Site Manager Compliance Kit

Overview

The Site Manager Compliance Kit is an essential tool for every contractor. The Compliance Kit contains all of the information and documentation needed to comply with the requirements of today’s Safety Regulations.

Includes

  • Construction Phase Health and Safety Plan (CDM 2015), which can be easily amended and edited for specific projects
  • 70 Toolbox Talk Documents
  • 65 Completed Risk Assessments
  • 41 COSHH Assessments
  • Site inspection Check Sheets – Scaffold, Dumper, Excavator etc
  • Permits to Work – Confined Space, Excavation, Hot Work, Asbestos, etc
  • Site set-up check sheet
  • Site Induction
  • Site Rules
  • Site Registers – PPE, Plant & Equipment etc

Do I need to be a CHAS accredited contractor?

If you are self-employed or a small contractor do you need to be a CHAS accredited contractor. You may be asked to get CHAS or other SSIP certificate. Let us explain the situation to you.

Domestic Market

If you work in the domestic market and want to sail close to the wind, the answer is no, as homeowners will not insist that you work safely.

However, you have a duty of care for yourself and others under UK health and safety legislation. Even working in the domestic market, you will be in trouble if you have a terrible accident or cause harm to others.

Construction Market

The answer is yes if you work in the construction market or want to work there. You will need to have a recognised standard of health and safety.

Main contractors and clients such as local authorities insist that everyone who works for them has a standard of health and safety. They insist as it is part of their health and safety systems.

The most well-known standard is CHAS, but there are other providers of the same standard under the SSIP umbrella. SSIP (Safety Schemes in Procurement) is a organisation that manages accreditation suppliers, to ensure they work to the same standards.

The size of your business matters

If you are self-employed or a small contractor with less than 5 employees, you need CHAS or similar, SSIP but you will not be required to employ a competent person safety advisor.

You must employ a competent person safety advisor if you employ 5 or more people, including sub-contractors or other self-employed people. The easiest way to do this is to use a remote competent person safety advisor. We offer this service.

What is CHAS

The Core Criteria and the threshold standard of CHAS and all the other SSIP accreditations  is as follows:

  • Health & safety policy
  • Competent Advice
  • Training arrangements
  • Monitoring, audit and review
  • Workforce involvement
  • Accident reporting and enforcement action
  • Subcontracting/consulting
  • Risk Assessments and Safe Systems of Work
  • Cooperations with others
  • Welfare provision
  • Hazard elimination

      The problem

      CHAS and other SSIP providers raise their assessment fees annually, increasing costs. An American corporation owns CHAS, and their fees have been raised yearly. They are now very high compared to other SSIP accreditation suppliers.

      We have a solution

      There are over thirty SSIP accreditation suppliers who all do the same thing, to the same standard. The standard is controlled by SSIP, which was created to develop a fair playing field and reduce costs.

      CHAS is the most popular and well-known; however, the suppliers below are also prominent and are much more economical than CHAS.

      Our preferred SSIP assessment renewal supplier is PQS; they have the lowest fees and are great to deal with. They have a good customer service team and have created easy-to-use systems to complete the accreditation documentation.

      Our preferred SSIP supplier list.

      • Training arrangements
      • Monitoring, audit and review

      • Subcontracting/consulting
      • Risk Assessments and Safe Systems of Work

      • Welfare provision
      • Hazard elimination

      The assessment completed will be proportionate and relevant to the type of work you undertake and the size of your business, noting the size of your business will include any labour staff working for you.

        Is CHAS accreditation worth it?

        Is CHAS accreditation worth it?

        The benefits of CHAS is worth the investment, especially if: You are a small/medium businesses aiming to grow or work with larger clients.

        • You have been told to get CHAS accredited by your client.
        • You want to work for local authorities, large blue- chip companies and principal contractors.
        • You want to save time and reduce admin burden by streamlining pre-qualifications when tendering
        • You don’t already have a strong health & safety compliance system
        • You want to present a professional, safety-first image to clients.

        If you are looking for the above, then yes CHAS accreditation is a wise investment.

        Here’s a balanced breakdown of the value and considerations

        Why CHAS Accreditation Is Valuable

        1. It Shows Robust Health & Safety Compliance

        CHAS is a recognised third-party assessment that verifies your health & safety management system meets current legislation and SSIP criteria. That gives you credible proof of compliance rather than just internal paperwork.

        2. Improved Tendering and Contract Access

        Many clients — especially in construction and public sector procurement — require CHAS (or equivalent SSIP) accreditation before inviting bids. Some councils and major contractors automatically reject bids from non-accredited firms.

        3. Saves Time on Pre-Qualification

        Once you’re CHAS-accredited, your health & safety compliance is pre-qualified — meaning fewer repeated forms and PQQ questions for each tender. This streamlines procurement admin.

        4. Reputation & Trust

        It’s a widely recognised badge of competence. Clients see it as a signal that you take safety seriously, which helps differentiate you from competitors. Beacon Risk

        5. Other Member Benefits

        CHAS membership often includes extras like legal helplines, discounts on training and services, and business resources — which can add indirect value.

        Considerations & Drawbacks

        1. Cost Can Be Significant

        Accreditation fees vary by company size and level (Standard/Advanced/Elite), and they’re annual — not one-offs. For smaller businesses, lower-cost SSIP options may be more cost-effective.

        2. Time & Documentation Burden

        Preparing policies, risk assessments, method statements, insurance docs, training records, etc., takes effort — and many first-time applicants struggle to get it right without support.

        3. Other SSIP Members Can Do the Same Job

        CHAS is a member of SSIP alongside other schemes. Technically, any SSIP member accreditation should meet the same basic compliance standard, although some clients specifically ask for CHAS.

        Practical Tips for Deciding if It’s Worth It

        ✔️ It’s likely worth it if:

        • Your target clients or frameworks explicitly require or favour CHAS.

        • You’re tendering regularly and want to cut down repeated PQQ work.

        • You want a strong industry-recognised compliance badge.

        ❓ Think twice if:

        • You rarely tender or clients don’t mandate CHAS.

        • Cost is a tight constraint and you could use a more affordable SSIP route.

        • You already hold a recognised SSIP accreditation that clients accept.

        Bottom Line

        CHAS accreditation is generally worth it for UK contractors and consultants — especially in construction and procurement-driven sectors — because it can unlock opportunities, save time, and improve credibility. However, it does come with costs and admin effort, and alternative SSIP accreditations may sometimes be a better value depending on your clients and business size.

        WHY select Seguro to support you with your CHAS application

        We have over 20 years of industry experience and complete over 500 applications yearly.

        As part of our hassle-free and in-depth service, we’ll complete the CHAS registration form on your behalf and prepare supporting documents as and when necessary.

        CHAS registration requires you to have a recognised health and safety management standard and covers compliance issues regarding your field of work.

        Once we have received the information we require from you, we aim to have your CHAS application submitted for assessment within five business days, although this is often even sooner.

        Our fees are the most cost-effective available. We will do the work while you get on with your job, saving you time and money.

        We will assign you a dedicated health and safety professional offering CHAS support throughout the process. We can implement policies, arrangements and procedures, assist with assessments like RAMS and provide training to your workforce. When we have completed the application, you will have everything you need to pass the CHAS accreditation.

        Hyperion

        I just wanted to send you a quick email about the amazing staff you have on your team.

        Natasha has been dealing with Hyperion for a couple of years now, and we have received nothing but exceptional service from this young lady. I get the quickest responses, with as much help as possible provided every single time. She has gone above and beyond for myself and Mark every time I have spoken to her.

        I thought I would just share this with you as I feel her remarkable customer service and attitude towards the job should most definitely be recognised, and she’s an absolute credit to yourself and the rest of the team.

        Thanks to all at Seguro

        Kind Regards
