About the CDM 2015 checklist

Managing safety on a construction site requires having the right processes in place. A CDM 2015 checklist helps you stay on top of legal duties, ensuring that everyone from the client to the contractor is meeting their responsibilities under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. Whether you’re overseeing a small renovation or a large-scale build, this checklist keeps your project compliant, organized, and safe.

A step-by-step guide to using the CDM 2015 checklist

Here’s how stay organized and boost compliance with the template:

  1. Customize the checklist to fit your project. Start by editing the template in the Lumiform app. Add specific project details like the site address, key duty holders, and any unique safety considerations. Tailoring the checklist makes it more relevant and effective for your team.
  2. Assign responsibility to the right person. Designate one team member—such as a site manager or safety officer—to complete the checklist regularly. Clear ownership helps maintain accountability and consistency in how safety checks are carried out.
  3. Conduct inspections on-site with mobile access. Use the mobile app to carry out checks in real time. Capture photos, GPS locations, and notes directly within the form to document site conditions accurately and efficiently.
  4. Track actions and follow-ups. If you’ve identified an issue, create action tasks within the app. Assign them to the relevant team members, set deadlines, and monitor progress to make sure corrective measures are implemented.
  5. Review and analyze data for continuous improvement. After completing checklists, review the collected data through Lumiform’s analytics dashboard. Spot trends, identify recurring issues, and adjust your safety processes to improve compliance over time.

Frequently asked questions

What does CDM 2015 stand for?

CDM 2015 stands for the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. These regulations outline the legal requirements for managing health, safety, and welfare on construction projects in the UK. They apply to all types of construction work, aiming to improve risk management and clearly define responsibilities across every stage of a project.

Who are the key duty holders under CDM 2015 regulations?

The key duty holders under CDM 2015 are the client, principal designer, principal contractor, designers, and contractors. Each has specific responsibilities: the client oversees overall project safety, the principal designer manages design-related risks, and the principal contractor handles on-site safety. Designers and contractors must also manage risks related to their work.

What is pre-construction information and why is it needed?

Pre-construction information includes details about the project, site conditions, existing hazards, and safety requirements. The client provides it to the principal designer and principal contractor before work begins. This information is crucial for identifying potential risks early, planning safe working methods, and reducing hazards during construction.
