The notes
Exactly as they are on the site.
Guidance Note 3 opens with statutory requirements, and by now these should be familiar — they've come up in nearly every module.
| Legislation | Why it matters here |
|---|---|
| Health and Safety at Work Act | The umbrella duty of care |
| Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations | Where risk assessments come from |
| Electricity at Work Regulations | The one that governs working on electrical systems |
| CDM — Construction (Design and Management) | Design and management of construction work |
| ESQCR | Electricity Safety, Quality and Continuity Regulations — the supply into the building and the earthing arrangement |
General requirements for safety
Before any work starts there's a conversation. The client describes the problem by phone or email; you arrange a time; and on a job of any size you should be producing a risk assessment and a method statement with them.
