What are the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act for the person who is Bas-P Bas-U?

The Work Environment Act sets requirements for persons who are BAS-U and BAS-P in a construction project. BAS-P is responsible for developing a work environment plan and identifying foreseeable risks. The BAS-U is responsible for ensuring that the health and safety plan is adhered to and that the daily operation of the construction site is carried out safely. Both coordinators should have skills and experience appropriate to the tasks required in each phase of the construction project.

Who has the main responsibility for health and safety issues in a construction project?

In a building or construction project, the client has the overall responsibility for health and safety issues. The developer is responsible for ensuring that the work environment is safe and secure for everyone involved in the project, both before and during the construction process. Together with BAS-P, it is the developer's responsibility to create a work environment plan before the project begins. The plan should include a risk assessment and a description of measures to minimize the risks. By following the work environment plan and taking responsibility for work environment issues, the developer can reduce the risk of accidents and illnesses on the construction site.

How long does a Basic P Basic U course last?

The BAS P and BAS U training is valid for five years from the date of issue. After five years, you need to undergo refresher training to continue working as a BAS P or BAS U. The reason for the five-year validity of the training is that it is important to ensure that coordinators have up-to-date knowledge and experience to identify and manage risks safely. The construction industry is constantly changing and evolving, and requiring refresher training ensures that coordinators have the latest knowledge and the best tools to protect health and safety on site.

When is Base P / Base U needed?
