Harry Jakeman-

In Memoriam28 June 1927 – 8 May 2016

It is with great sadness that we report the death of Harry 

Jakeman, a long‐time Association member and stalwart. Harry joined the Association in 1950 and served with 

distinction on Council, the Management Committee and 

Construction section before retiring from the 

Association in 2005 – 55 years of continuous support 

and service!He held ‘high‐office’

on a number of occasions:1979 – 81 Construction Section Chairman1982 – 83 Association Chairman2000 – 01 Association Chairman for a second period –

unprecedented at that time.Harry did so much for the Association and his passion 

and enthusiasm rubbed off on others. He also played a significant role on the Management 

Committee of the National Health and Safety Group 

(later Safety Groups UK) and always took a leading role 

in the Annual RoSPA

Safety Exhibition at the NEC.He will be fondly remembered by so many.

Assisting a Health 

and Safety Practitioner

Aaron Kernaghan, Ecl‐ips

Key Points

Use of CCTV can:‐ help thwart false compensation claims‐ benefit lone workers, who may also be provided with panic alarms‐monitor contractors on site to ensure they are working safely‐provide alerts to employers where there are dangerous practices occurring , eg

set 

up to notify when there are  pedestrians or discarded pallets in

a designated forklift 

truck area‐monitor unlawful trespass which could lead to accidents‐monitor unmanned assembly lines and alert staff to malfunctions

Use of CCTV is on the increase and now provides high resolution images, which could 

be invaluable in a legal context.  Latest technology can also monitor vehicle speeds.

There is no problem with data protection laws, as long as employees are made aware 

that the CCTV is in place specifically for health and safety purposes.  Copies of 

recordings can be stored “in the Cloud”

for employers to access should their copies 

be seized by investigators.

MARCH 2017 Birmingham Health, Safety & Environment Association BHSEACDM – Is it doing the job?

Tony Mitchell, HSE

Key points

HSE believe that in the two years since CDM 2015 was launched, there have been vast 

improvements across the construction industry.The introduction of additional responsibilities and accountability for designers , who are now 

required to consider how their buildings can be safely built and

maintained ‐

and adapt their 

designs accordingly ‐

should lead to greater worker safety in the long run.The WWT campaign highlights that for every construction worker killed, 100 more will die through 

work‐related illnesses.  Long latency illnesses such as those caused by asbestos and silica have yet 

to peak.   Controls must continue to be put in place and managed

to protect today’s workers from 

harmful substances to ensure they do not suffer a similar fate in 20‐30 years’

time.The Regulations set the standards to be achieved and provide a framework but do not dictate the 

process.  The question should be “What is the best system for managing my business to meet the 

requirements of legislation?”

Tony clarified that the Regulations apply to all construction work 

including, for example, decoration and cleaning of windows with pressure washers.  The Client now needs to be more specific as to his requirements and also to ask the contractors 

what arrangements are in place to protect workers and to make sure the contractors’

Construction 

Phase Plan is in place prior to commencement of work.Remember:  The Client (an organisation or an individual) needs to know they have responsibilities 

under the Regulations and be aware that they are ultimately accountable for any dereliction of 

duty, even if they have appointed an agent to act on their behalf.  Ignorance is not a defence.

MARCH 2017 Birmingham Health, Safety & Environment Association BHSEASafety by Design

Ray Gold, RDG Engineering

Key pointsSafe by Design is about looking at the safety of designs from an

engineering point of view; the aim 

being to eliminate or reduce risks starting with development, through to construction, operation, 

maintenance and decommissioning.Since CDM 2015  designers are now more aware of their obligations regarding  building safety and 

longevity into their designs.  They now focus on innovation rather than purely invention; adapting 

and evolving existing ideas to solve new problems.  They look to

design out the labour intensive or 

dangerous elements, particularly with regard to on‐going maintenance.Value Engineering refers to the elimination of unnecessary costs, whilst improving function and 

quality.  This  involves consideration of availability of materials, construction methods, 

transportation costs, site limitations, etc.Newer methods of construction now include assembling components at ground level for 

installation on site.Historic structures, such as the Forth Bridge, have astronomical

maintenance costs and pose 

significant risks to workers.  Designers of today’s buildings must ensure that they may be 

maintained more economically and safely.There is no substitute for experience; graduates may have new ideas but the experienced 

designers will have the edge and a considerable understanding of

the pitfalls.  Collaboration is key.It is important to recognise that however good  the design it will never eliminate problems caused 

by errors of judgement and those which occur when there is pressure to meet deadlines, but the 

designers can make a significant difference by reducing risks through improved design.

Questionnaire / self‐assessment

Based on HSE – HSG 159

1. We always know who’s on site.2.

There has never been a major incident or 

accident involving contractors on site.3.

We assess contractor’s competence in 

health, safety, environment / risk & check for 

evidence before they do work for us.4.

We look into contractors’

procedures for 

health, safety, environment / risk to make 

sure they can fit in with ours.5. We ensure hazards are identified and 

risks are assessed at each stage and the job 

is planned.6.

We inform them of the hazards on the 

site & of our emergency procedures before 

they start.7.

We keep track of their progress until the 

job finishes.8.

After the job we talk to the contractor 

about the work, including health, safety,

If your business were to suffer a serious incident or 

catastrophic event – internal or external, natural or 

man‐made –

would you be able to recover from it?

In particular:

Does your organisation have a business continuity plan in place?

If you arrived at your normal place of work later today or tomorrow and it 

was inaccessible would you know what to do?

If you were one of those in charge after a major event would you

be 

comfortable in dealing with the situation?

Would you be able to apply your health and safety knowledge, experience 

and know‐how to other business issues including business continuity?
