All documentation and technical support required by Title IV of D.Lgs. 81/08 for construction sites: Operational Safety Plan (POS) for contractors, Safety and Coordination Plan (PSC) for client, CSP/CSE roles.

Regulatory references: D.Lgs. 81/08 Titolo IV (artt. 88-160) · All. XV
● In the field

"Construction is the workplace with the highest injury rate in Italy: prevention isn't optional."

What it is

Construction and civil engineering sites are Italy's workplace with the most serious and fatal injuries. That's why Title IV of D.Lgs. 81/08 has specific rules, distinct from "fixed" workplaces:

• POS (Operational Safety Plan): document of each contractor, describing their operations and specific risks.
• PSC (Safety and Coordination Plan): drafted by client or CSP, coordinates all companies working on the same site.
• CSP (Design Safety Coordinator): defines PSC during design phase.
• CSE (Execution Safety Coordinator): supervises during works, can suspend operations if dangerous.
• DUVRI (Interference Risk Assessment Document) for non-construction contracts.

Reference regulations

• D.Lgs. 81/08 Title IV (arts. 88-160).
• Annex XV — PSC and POS minimum content.
• D.Lgs. 50/2016 + D.Lgs. 36/2023 Public Contracts Code.
• D.M. 09/06/2008 professional figures.
• Standards for working at height (UNI EN 363, 365), Cat. III PPE (fall protection), excavation, demolitions, asbestos remediation (D.M. 06/09/1994).

Exemplary penalties:
• Missing POS: €2,000-4,000 fine + contractor work suspension.
• Missing PSC when required: €3,000-12,000 fine for client.
• Site without CSE: works suspension + criminal complaint for client.
• Serious/fatal injury without POS/PSC: certain criminal liability + million-euro damages.

Who needs it and when

For:
• Construction and installation contractors (POS always mandatory).
• Private clients with works over 200 man-days or involving multiple contemporaneous companies (PSC + CSP + CSE mandatory).
• Public procurement bodies (always PSC + CSP + CSE).
• Private individuals for home renovations with multiple contractors.

When:
• POS: before contractor work start.
• PSC: before tender publication (public) or assignment (private).
• CSE: appointed before site opening.
• Preliminary notification to ASL/DPL if >200 man-days or multi-contractor.
