Construction site safety, civil works

Every week a different site, and on each one the same first hour of not knowing where anything is.

Construction sites 10–20 min per run

The first hour on a new site is the one that catches people out.

A crew that moves between sites arrives without the knowledge everyone else has built up: where the plant crosses, which gate is for people, what the ground is like behind the hoarding. They start work anyway, because the programme says so.

This one is for crews who rotate between civil works sites and for the supervisors who induct them. It is the short training that makes the first hour deliberate instead of improvised.

What a team does in it

One run, three parts. A team can go back to any of them as often as it needs, and most do.

  1. 1

    Arrive and look

    A team comes in through the gate they were given and finds the crossings, the exclusion zones and the way back out.

  2. 2

    Name what has changed

    The site is not the one from the induction. They pick out the differences and say which of them stop the work.

  3. 3

    Start the task properly

    With that picture in place, they set their own work up so it does not cut across anybody else's.

Construction site safety, civil works

10–20 min per run

Included with every module

  • The training itself, repeated as often as you need.
  • Equipment supplied, maintained and replaced.
  • Attendance is recorded and exports into the records you already keep.
  • We run the first sessions with your team, then hand over.

Put it on your shortlist and we go through it together, with nothing to decide yet.

Next to it in the same cluster

Teams that meet this hazard usually meet the others on the same shift. The cluster page Construction sites holds all of them together.

Walk one of your sites through this training.

Bring a site that is running now. We go through the training against it, the same version your crews would get.

What happens in the demo

  1. You pick the hazard From your own risk assessment, not from a demo script.
  2. We go through the training Start to finish, the same version your people would get.
  3. We look at your site Who would run it, on which shifts, and what a first group needs.
