Veriforce CHAS, the UK-based leader in supply chain risk management and contractor assessment, has expressed strong support for the Government's plans to expedite the UK’s planning system and boost construction efforts. However, with a rise in construction related fatalities in recent years, CHAS is emphasising that health and safety must remain the utmost priority as the UK scales up its building capacity.
The Government’s planning reforms, which include a pledge to build 1.5 million new homes over the next five years, necessitate a significant increase in construction labour. With the latest figures from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) revealing an alarming rise in construction-related fatalities - there were 51 fatalities in 2023/24, up 42% from the average of the last 4 years - CHAS is stressing the crucial need for leading clients in the construction industry to ensure that subcontractors are not only available but also adequately qualified for new projects.
