The challenge
One of the many challenges faced across the entire construction sector is often presented when nearing the project completion deadlines. Site management teams come under a lot of pressure, where their time and focus can be directed solely on finding ways to get the project completed and handed over. Consequently, when this is the case, new hazards or poor working practices can often become missed or worse, overlooked. This is where Hamilton Deed come in, by highlighting hazards during site tours, fixing the concerns whilst there, or providing practical solutions to remove or control the risks to an acceptable level. These findings are presented in a plan which helps site managers prioritise the issues. This ensures standards of compliance and safe working practices remain at the highest level through the entire project duration, particularly during the most challenging and critical stages.
