Construction activity registered with the Scheme is committed to conform with the Code of Considerate Practice. By respecting the community, caring for the environment and valuing your workforce, you can help improve the impact of the construction industry and leave a positive legacy.
As part of your registration a Scheme Monitor will visit your construction activity/organisation to establish your level of conformance with the Code. In order to inform the public and your workforce that your construction activity/organisation is registered with the Scheme, you will be provided with a number of items showing the Scheme’s Public Support contact details and Site Manager’s contact details. All construction activity/organisations registered with the Scheme must display a public-facing banner and poster.
You will receive a monitoring visit twice a year. After each visit, we provide you with a report assessing your performance against the Code of Considerate Practice which also highlights areas for improvement.
