The HSE’s Construction Industry Advisory Network (CONIAN) Managing Risks Well Working Group has adopted the CLOCS Standard as part of the solution to help minimise the impact of Site Transport on communities.

Clive Johnson, chairman of the Managing Risks Well working group and Group Head of Health and Safety at Derwent London plc said, “The CLOCS Standard provides an obvious and successful industry-led solution that accelerates progress in ensuring the safest construction vehicle journeys to/from site, and compliments the other workstreams in Managing Risk Well working group. I encourage all construction regulators, construction clients and principal contractors to understand and adopt CLOCS as their default standard.”
