Course Content
As we move ever closer to the introduction of this legislation which is important and complex, it’s becoming clear time ticking before both the Fire & Rescue Authorities and Building Safety Regulator in England will not only be requesting who is the responsible person for all buildings and requesting further information for buildings over 11 metres and as with the Building Safety Regulator for buildings over 18 metres requesting owners for registration and who are their Accountable person’s and checking the additional requirements are in place.
Therefore all duty holders need to know what they need to get in place and ensure the resources and time is allocated in the contract, where procurement will be key to ensure the right coordination is taking place in the design and construction and prior to handover of a project to ensure the life cycle and safety of the building asset.
