Part 2 – Client duties
Appointments
Appoint other duty holders and make sure the principal contractor carries out their duties.
Notification
Where a project is notifiable, the client must
give notice to the HSE (or the ORR as necessary),
containing the particulars specified in Schedule 1 (see page 1.3.07).
Time & resources
Allow sufficient time and resources for all stages.
Information
Provide pre-construction information to designers and contractors.
Welfare
Ensure there are suitable management arrangements for the project welfare facilities.
Domestic clients have work carried out on their own house, not as part of a business. Domestic clients' duties are normally transferred to the (principal) contractor, but may be transferred to the principal designer.
