What is the Pre-Tender Stage Health
and Safety Plan?
Essentially the plan is a collection ofinformation about the significant health andsafety risks of the construction project which the
Principal Contractor will have to manage duringthe construction phase.
The degree of detail and the time and effortinvolved in preparing it should be in proportionto the nature, size and level of risks involved inthe project.

health and safety to the Planning Supervisor. E.g.

What is the Purpose of the Pre-
Tender Health and Safety Plan?
During its development, the plan can provide a focus atwhich the health and safety considerations of design arebrought together under the control of the PlanningSupervisor.
The plan plays a vital role in the tender documentation.Prospective Principal Contractors are made fully awareof the projects health, safety and welfare requirements,giving a level playing field on which to provide tendersubmissions.
The plan provides a template against which differenttender submissions can be measured.
