Once appointed there would be unannounced daily, weekly, fortnightly or monthly site visits to carry out site safety inspections, update files, carry out any inductions or toolbox talks required, ensure communication between all parties etc.
Initially regular visits would be required to ensure all inductions are done and site is being run safely etc. Then less frequently to ensure all paperwork is in order and that all procedures on site are in place. The frequency and number of visits required depends on the stage of construction, competence of supervision on site, number of high risk activities etc and can be agreed as the project progresses.
