Construction site safety
Worksite Safety, in its modern conception, derives from the European directive 92/57/EEC of 24 June 1992 (minimum prescriptions of safety to be actuated in temporary and mobile building sites) – Building Site Directive – transposed by Legislative Decree 494/96.
Currently Building Site Safety is governed by Title IV of Legislative Decree 81/08 (so-called “Consolidated Safety Law”) which repealed Legislative Decree 494/96.
Title IV of Legislative Decree 81/08 applies to all temporary or mobile building sites, that is, at any site in which construction works or civil engineering are carried out, better specified in attachment X in the same Legislative Decree.
The figures involved in Building Site Safety by the European Directive as transposed by the national norm are:
Clients
Works managers
Co-ordinator during the design phase
Co-ordinator during the execution phase
Employers
Directors
Supervisors
Employees
Independent employees
Developers for locations and/or workplaces and plant, machine and apparatus
Builders, traders, brokers, plant installers, machinery and apparatus
