Pre-construction documentation
We explain your duty holder responsibilities under CDM 2015, prepare and submit the F10 notification to the HSE where thresholds are triggered, and develop a construction phase plan covering Health and Safety arrangements, site rules, risk management, and emergency procedures.
Site setup and live oversight
Welfare facilities, traffic management, pedestrian segregation, access controls, and signage planned before the first day on site. Clear site rules and induction materials communicated to all workers, with translated versions where needed. Regular CDM site inspections against the phase plan and HSE guidance L153.
Documented findings and corrective actions
Every inspection produces documented findings with prioritised corrective actions. Regulatory queries and HSE communications handled as the project progresses, with the phase plan updated as the build evolves.

Kellaway
Sector-specific compliance
Builders Merchants
Yard operations, loading safety, and customer-facing risk management. We understand the unique challenges of trade retail environments.
Warehousing & Logistics
MHE-intensive operations, racking safety, and loading bay risks. You need someone who can induct peak-season temps fast and ensure your night shift isn't a compliance blind spot.
Manufacturing & Engineering
24/7 production, machinery guarding, hot work, and COSHH exposure. You need someone who understands the tension between output targets and keeping people safe - and how to manage both.
Garden Centres
Seasonal displays changing weekly. Family footfall alongside forklift operations. Food hygiene in the café. Whether you're one site or ten - your risks are real and your compliance matters. You need someone who sees the full picture, not just the obvious risks.
Metal Stockholders
Heavy lifting, cutting operations, and materials handling across indoor and outdoor yards. Crane safety, manual handling risks, and COSHH exposure from oils and coatings. Your consultant knows this environment - not just the regulations that apply to it.
Childcare & Nurseries
Safeguarding requirements, fire safety in buildings designed for small children, food hygiene, outdoor play areas, and regulatory inspections from Ofsted as well as HSE. Your risk profile is unique - your consultant should be too.
