The Importance of Temporary Work in the Building Sector
In the building sector, Intérim dans le bâtiment accounts for 35% of costs on any project and yet gets far less attention than it deserves. Yet, it’s responsible for 70% of construction site accidents and 30 deaths every year. So, it’s a critical safety issue that demands our full attention.
Incorrectly designed and installed temporary works can present significant risk to health & safety, leading to costly delays and project failures. With this in mind, more and more clients are including provisions in their contracts to have external reviews and approvals of temporary structures.

This is where FSC Group can help. Our engineering experts can provide thorough risk assessments and detailed designs of temporary works to ensure they’re safe, fit for purpose, and erected by regulations. We also have a proven track record of delivering projects on time and within budget.
Another advantage of working with FSC is that we can supply temporary construction workers on a contract basis, allowing us to start work on your project without delay. This is particularly useful when you need to bring on board a specific skill set or bolster your workforce in a short space of time.

Additionally, because they’re contracted for a pre-agreed period, their departure is not contingent on personal plans, mitigating the risk of disruptions during key project phases.
