The main role of the Housing Construction Supervisor is to ensure that subcontractors achieve the results that your company expects. Those results will include that the subcontractors know how to perform the work on-site safely. Supervising means getting involved and understanding the day-to-day operations firsthand, the safety requirements of the various Acts and Regulations and your company’s own health and safety system and its procedures.
This course trains on what to look out for as the Supervisor moves across multiple housing construction sites to eliminate the major sources of serious harm to subcontractors. The course discusses seven common risks, for example, falls from height, working on or adjacent to roads and railways, and where mobile plant is in operation. The training discusses how to raise safety issues with subcontractors to make sure that the safety message is understood.
