"Temporary works" is a widely used expression in the construction industry for an "engineered solution" used to support or protect an existing structure or the permanent works during construction, or to support an item of plant or equipment, or the vertical sides or side-slopes of an excavation, or to provide access. Reduce accidents arising from temporary works failures Background Increase the competence of those engaged in temporary works management and design Improve contractors' management arrangements of temporary works Promote awareness and knowledge of the importance of managing temporary works As this is new work, the SIM will be reviewed and revised in the light of operational experience and, as such, constructive feedback would be welcomed. This is a new topic introduced in to the work plan in order to highlight and better control the risks associated with all types of temporary works on construction sites (although there are clear links to existing priorities, eg tower crane safety and structural stability). This document should be used as the basis for undertaking operational work on this topic in accordance with Construction Division's current work plan. This SIM provides guidance to Inspectors on temporary works management in the construction industry and how Inspectors should approach enforcement of the topic.

Where the SIM refers to an Approved Code of Practice (ACOP) reference should instead be made to HSE Guidance publication L153 which is freely available via the HSE website. This can be done without affecting the accuracy of the text. Changes affecting this SIM are largely limited to changes to the applicable Regulation number - with the exception that, in this SIM only, the term 'Principal Designer' can be directly substituted for the listed term 'CDM Coordinator'. However readers should note that the listed legislation has been updated and reference should be made to the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 which has replaced the 2007 version referred to. SIM 02/2010/04 is currently being revised but this work is on hold pending publication of the next revision of BS5975. The management of temporary works in the construction industry SIM 02/2010/04
