Site Welfare and CDM 2015: The Essentials
Providing proper welfare isn't just good practice — on construction sites it's a legal duty under the CDM 2015 Regulations. Here's a plain-English overview.
The basics
Workers generally need access to toilets, washing facilities with hot and cold water, somewhere to take breaks and eat, and somewhere to dry and store clothing. The scale depends on the size of your workforce.
How cabins help
Self-contained welfare, toilet and canteen cabins let you meet these requirements quickly on almost any site, including those without mains services.
This is general information, not legal advice — always check the current regulations for your project. See our welfare units.
