The HBF Health and Safety Committee (HSC) is a membership group committed to driving further improvement in the health and safety performance of the home building sector.
It's members meet every quarter to discuss industry guidance documentation in development, the progress of subgroups formed to oversee arising issues, and relevant industry issues or best practice.
The committee maintains close links with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), with a representative sitting on the committee.
Rhodri Williams is HBF's Technical and Sustainability Director, and is therefore responsible for the Health and Safety Committee.

Health and safety resources
The committee's working groups meet throughout the year to develop industry guidance documents and advise on new campaigns and initiatives.
RIDDOR data collection and reporting
Health and safety data is collected quarterly from all volunteer member organisations from 1 April to 31 March.
The collated data is analysed and used to target effective improvements in the health and safety performance of the house building sector of the construction industry.
RIDDOR data collected from members has allowed us to identify where accidents are happening on site and across which job roles.
The trends identified in this analysis allows us to set our rolling objectives on an annual basis, leading to reduced accident statistics in the sector.
Data collection for HBF Health and Safety reports takes place on the HBF Stats Online platform, produced with the support of SSUK.
If you have any questions about the new platform, contact Steph Calder.
