Who Attends
The TWCTC course is intended for senior managers and any delegates who work with contractors involved with the planning, procurement and management of temporary works, including those who may undertake a Temporary Works
Coordinator role.
Course Content
Emphasis throughout the course to the importance of communication, co-ordination, co-operation and competency (the 4Cs), risk management, safety and business relations.
Allowing the Temporary Works Co-ordinator (TWC) to:
- Understand the need for and duties of a Temporary Works Co-ordinator
- Understand the role of others
- Have a detailed knowledge and understanding of BS5975 in respect of this role.
Temporary works are usually safety and business-critical and require careful co-ordination.
An accepted way of achieving this is through the adoption of the management process outlined in BS5975 which introduces the Temporary Works Co-ordinator as a key figure.
This course explains the (TWC) role and the overall management context within which it sits. High risk can occur on small as well as larger sites hence understanding the essentials of good safety risk management, as outlined in BS5975, is relevant for projects of all sizes.
Knowledge
By the end of this course, delegates will be aware of the process of co-ordination of temporary works, commonly expressed through the role of the Temporary Works Co-ordinator.
Attendance does not confer competency as a Temporary Works Co-ordinator; this comes from a mixture of education, training and experience and should be judged by an appropriate senior individual, usually referred to as the Designated Individual (DI). Training is considered an essential element of Temporary Works Co-ordinator
competence.
