Quote:quote:Bit of a flippant comment but- if arch is seen as a construction related industry, then why does CDM regs apparently not strictly apply to us?
My understanding is that CDM doesn't apply only where the work is not taking place on an 'active construction site'. Generally, that means that the archaeologists are the first and only contractors working on the site, or it is a research excavation. As soon as there is any other construction-related activity going on simultaneously, then CDM applies to the site and everyone on it - including the archaeologists.
