What is a SITE SPECIFIC SAFETY PLAN?
A SITE SPECIFIC SAFETY PLAN – also know as a SSSP – is not so much about company safety management, but rather safety systems specific to a SITE or project.
While a company may do similar or even the same work on many different projects, each site has its own set of hazards and risks.
The SSSP takes a detailed look and the site and documents are created specifically for this.

It will demonstrate to Clients and Principal Contractors that you have taken suitable precautions to ensure that the health and safety of your employees, nor any other person, is going to be negatively affected by the actions of your staff on site. Why? An employer, or their appointed contractor, is legally responsible for all activities on site . An incident can negatively affect them. For this reason, they need to make sure – as far as is ‘reasonably practicable’ – that your employees will work in a safe manner. Therefore, a safety file needs to be SITE SPECIFIC. The information contained must only refer to the activities of that specific site. It is not a generic document.
