Description

1.1 Assignment 1 – Work Health and Safety Plan 1.1.2 Assignment brief The aim of this assignment is to develop your knowledge and understanding of the processes and activities involved in preparing a work health and safety plan for the site establishment and the carrying out of a construction project in accordance with the relevant WHS legislation. This assignment relates to drawings uploaded You are the design and build contractor appointed to undertake the change of use and adaption of the general office buildings (detailed in the drawings) into one bedroomed retirement homes for the elderly. You will undertake all of the work by your own directly employed labour force. Note: The drawings detailed are the original as planned drawings (not the original as built drawings). On initial investigation of the existing buildings’ you have found there are a number of discrepancies in the materials actually used when the buildings were constructed from those that were specified to be used on the original drawings. As a result, part of the project is to remove those materials (as identified by the building control and planning approval requirements) and replace them with suitable alternatives more in line with the original drawing specifications. 4 ARBE2303 Health and Safety in the Built Environment – Course Assessment 2019 With this in mind, all building control and planning approvals, etc., have been obtained (and you have poetic licence to assume that whatever design you intend to carry out, and the materials you intend to use (within reason) automatically comply with the approvals), and all works are to be in accordance with current building code requirements.

The main concern of the authorities during the change of use and adaption of these buildings is the existing original roof tiles. It has been discovered that the roof tiles that were originally used for the roof covering were manufactured with an asbestos based material. Therefore these must all be removed and replaced with a suitable alternative. Your organisation is known for its strong beliefs and commitment to work health and safety, and as such your health and safety plan should demonstrate this. Your submission should contain: A company Work Health and Safety policy; Details of the Work Health and Safety roles and responsibilities management team involved in the project; An outline of the necessary emergency procedures, materials storage and handling procedures, and site boundary protection/hoardings, etc., to be implemented; Consultation and hazard reporting procedures; Details of the project health and welfare facilities required; Examples of project documents and registers that will need to be kept. Note: Do not include any hazard identification and risk assessment Report Structure Following a formal report structure, you have to include Executive Summary, Table of Content, a short Introduction and Bibliography/List of References. You don’t have to exactly follow last year examples but they are good sources of information to review the report structure/format.

A: In a way it does regard mostly towards hazardous materials and substances, though some of it is generalised. Please follow the Building Code AS3600, AS4964 and other relevant codes. Materials to be replaced You need to identify the safety measures that must be met in order to remove and install fresh up to date materials, to ensure safe work for builders and residents Asbestos Management Plan Plan for asbestos should be included in the safety plan briefly.
