⚖️ Health & Safety Compliance FAQs

How often should risk assessments be reviewed?
Risk assessments should be reviewed regularly and whenever:
-
There are significant changes to activities or processes
-
New equipment is introduced

An accident or near miss occurs
-
Existing controls are no longer effective

🏗️ CDM & Construction FAQs

The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations apply to virtually all construction projects, regardless of size.
Duties vary depending on your role as a client, designer, principal designer, contractor, or principal contractor.
Do I need a Principal Designer?
Where more than one contractor is involved in a project, a Principal Designer must usually be appointed to plan, manage and monitor health and safety during the pre-construction phase.
Can Logic act as Principal Designer?
Yes. Our experienced consultants can undertake the Principal Designer role or provide support to an existing appointment.
☣️ Asbestos Management FAQs
Do I need an asbestos survey?
If your building was constructed before 2000, you may need an asbestos survey depending on how the premises are used and whether any refurbishment works are planned.
What's the difference between a Management Survey and a Refurbishment Survey?
Management Survey
Suitable for occupied buildings during normal day-to-day use. It identifies asbestos-containing materials that may be disturbed during routine occupation or maintenance.
Refurbishment & Demolition Survey
Required before refurbishment, structural alterations, or demolition works. This survey is more intrusive and identifies asbestos that may be hidden within the building fabric.
Do asbestos surveys need to be repeated every year?
Not usually.
In most cases, asbestos-containing materials should be monitored and managed through regular inspections. New surveys are generally only required where significant changes occur or refurbishment works are planned.
Can Logic help with asbestos management plans?
Yes. We develop practical asbestos management plans tailored to your organisation, helping ensure compliance and effective long-term risk management.
