This White Paper represents the completion of the first phase of a G+ project aiming to better understand the complexities of health and safety in the fabrication of steel structures for current and future offshore wind projects, and how offshore wind developers can better support fabricators in improving health and safety.
G+ engaged its members and the fabricator community to seek their direct feedback on the challenges faced, and to conduct background research on relevant international regulation and guidance.
This paper does not offer guidance, it reports on the findings of this engagement and offers an outline of initial recommendations for inclusion in a good practice guidance (GPG), which is already under development.
The GPG will seek to address the identified challenges, helping to create a common understanding around health and safety objectives between client and fabricators.
