Assignment assistance - legal & organisational
Hi
I've just completed the legal & organisational section of the Diploma part one and have been issued with that dreaded assignment!!
My problem is that we still haven't received any feedback or marks for our first assignment and as such, I have no idea if I am approaching these in the way expected.
The subject matter for this assignment pertains to a piece of contract work which has been undertaken for your organisation, and the organisational arrangements (not specific risk controls) which the Company have put in place to ensure the safety of persons undertaking the work and effected by it. I have to identify gaps in those management and organisational arrangements and state how these can be rectified, drawing conclusions on their effectiveness and providing recommendations for the future.
Can anyone provide me with any pointers on how best to approach a question like this - I don't work in a particularly high risk environment and as such have little experience of CDM etc which I am told would be the easiest way to approach this question.
Any pointers would be much appreciated in relation to what might be expected in such an assignment.
Many Thanks in advance for any help available.

An excellent publication to use is the HSE's guidance Managing Contractors -A Guide for Employers (C25). It also gives details of the Associated Octel Case with useful checklists and questions.
Other publications worth referencing are: Managing Risk -Adding Value (C30) and A guide to Managing health and Safety in Construction (C75)(CDM).
All of these can be found in SHEpro

Good luck.
