Welfare Support Services
At The Drinking Water Club, we understand that access to clean water is essential to maintaining high standards of welfare on any construction or site. That is why we offer a wide range of support services to ensure our clients have access to clean and safe water throughout the operation.
We offer a range of storage tanks and water pumps that are suitable for different site conditions and client requirements. Our team of experts can help our clients identify the most suitable options for their site and ensure the tanks and pumps are installed, maintained, and regularly tested for safety and regulatory compliance.
Additionally, we offer a plumbing service that allows us to connect our water supply solutions to the site's existing plumbing. This ensures that the water we supply can be easily distributed throughout the site in a safe and reliable manner.
At The Drinking Water Club, we believe in delivering excellent customer service, and our team is always on hand to provide support and guidance throughout the operation. We pride ourselves on the quality and reliability of our services, ensuring that our clients can focus on their project while we take care of their water needs.
The Construction Design and Management (CDM) Regulations 2015 updated the legal duty of contractors to ensure employees and visitors have access to welfare facilities, including a supply of clean and safe drinking water, whilst working on construction sites. This duty extends to both contractors and their clients, and failure to comply can result in legal action being taken. While the ideal solution is a mains-fed water supply, there are certain situations where this is not possible, and a temporary water supply must be used to meet the requirements of the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations and BS 8551:2015.
Drinking water points should be set up strategically throughout the site to ensure access for all workers and visitors. These drinking water points must be kept clean and regularly maintained to avoid contamination or degradation of the water supply.
Under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations (CDM), employers and contractors have a legal obligation to ensure that their employees have access to adequate washing facilities while working on construction sites. The provision of washing facilities is important to maintain good hygiene practices, reduce the risk of disease transmission, and protect the health and safety of workers.
Washing facilities should ideally be placed next to the toilet and changing facilities. Hot and cold running water must be available, and soap and towels should be provided. The sinks should be large enough to accommodate hand washing and be maintained in a clean and hygienic condition.
For construction sites where there are hazardous or toxic substances, separate shower facilities must be provided to enable employees to wash off any hazardous materials that they may have been exposed to.
Employers and contractors should ensure that all washing facilities are inspected regularly and kept clean and well-maintained at all times. Failure to comply with these regulations can lead to legal action.
At The Drinking Water Club, we understand the importance of maintaining high standards of hygiene and safety on construction sites and work closely with our clients to develop solutions that ensure compliance with all relevant regulations.
The number of toilet facilities required on a construction site is determined by the expected number of workers on site, and also the length of time the construction project is scheduled to run for. Adequate toilet facilities must be provided to ensure the health and safety of workers, and to comply with relevant regulations.
Ideally, toilet facilities should be connected to the incoming mains water supply. However, where this is not possible, a temporary water supply should be used. The temporary water supply must meet the standards set out in the Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations and BS8551:2015 to ensure the water is fit for human consumption.
In addition to the number of toilets required, construction sites must also provide adequate hand-washing facilities. Hand-washing facilities should be located in close proximity to toilet facilities and should include hot and cold running water, soap, and towels.
