They set the tone for projects through their procurement decisions, appointments and allocation of resources.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If those duties are taken seriously and supported by competent appointments and informed oversight, the quality and safety of outcomes will improve. If they are not, no amount of downstream control can fully compensate,&#8221; said Vanstone.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Guidance that helps clients understand both their statutory responsibilities and the practical implications of those responsibilities is therefore welcome, particularly where it aligns with the Regulator&#8217;s Principles for Informed Clients and supports consistent cross-industry understanding.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The guide can be found in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebesa.com\/clients-guide-building-safety-act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">full for free here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>CIOB is also focusing on safety this year<\/h3>\n<p>Earlier this month, the Chartered Institute of Builders (CIOB) CEO, Dr Victoria Hills, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/sustainability-skills-and-safety-the-ciobs-focus-for-2026\/158835\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote for PBC Today<\/a> exploring the institute\u2019s plans for 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Hills wrote: \u201cOne of our three key themes is pushing quality and safety as a priority and these are clearly critical industry-wide issues. Many people will be keeping an eye on government-level policy developments, such as the recently published Single Construction Regulator Prospectus, outlining proposals to reduce fragmentation in how the construction sector is regulated. There will also be a further call for evidence to understand the role of the professions in driving change, expected in the spring.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also still await the results of a number of important government consultations that we responded to in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCloser to home, we are adjusting our CPD policy to further ensure the competence of our current members and fellows and those on the path to chartered membership. Our CPD policy is regularly reviewed to ensure it is fit-for-purpose in a constantly evolving industry and the focus on reflective practice and clarity about the required hours should provide more consistency and ease of recording for our members.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Building Engineering Services Association (BESA) safety guidance offers a more-digestible method of maintaining safety compliance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":159662,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[309],"tags":[712,568,172800],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-159661","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-health-safety-news","8":"tag-besa","9":"tag-building-regulations","10":"tag-building-safety-act"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>New BESA safety guidance released for adopting standards<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The Building Engineering Services Association (BESA) safety guidance offers a more-digestible method of maintaining safety compliance\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/health-safety-news\/new-besa-safety-guidance-released-adopting-standards\/159661\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"New BESA safety guidance released for adopting standards\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Building Engineering Services Association (BESA) safety guidance offers a more-digestible method of maintaining safety compliance\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/health-safety-news\/new-besa-safety-guidance-released-adopting-standards\/159661\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
