Contractor Management
Introduction
The university is responsible for securing and maintaining the highest standards of health and safety for those working as contractors at our campuses.
An Corrective Action Notice should be issued to a contractor if they are falling below legal or unversity standards for health and safety.
Access Control to Hazardous Areas and for Safety Critical Equipment
There is an access control permit 
for contract works taking place in the more hazardous areas of University buildings such as laboratories and workshops.
In addition, work on plant/fans/air handling units in plant rooms that are associated with safety critical equipment (SCE) must be controlled using the same permit. (e.g. of SCEs - Microbiological safety cabinets used for HG 3 organisms or the more serious HG 2; Fume cupboards used for Cyanide, HF or similarly highly toxic substances)
