Construction Means, Methods and Safety Clause Samples
The "Construction Means, Methods and Safety" clause defines the responsibility for determining and implementing the techniques, processes, and precautions necessary to complete construction work safely and effectively. Typically, this clause assigns the contractor the authority and obligation to select construction methods and ensure that all safety regulations and standards are followed on the job site. For example, the contractor must decide how to erect scaffolding or operate machinery while maintaining a safe environment for workers and the public. The core function of this clause is to clearly allocate responsibility for construction procedures and site safety, thereby reducing disputes and clarifying liability in the event of accidents or unsafe practices.
