Look for a construction phase plan template and you get email-gated downloads, paid CITB packs, or a filled council example PDF you can't edit. For a small builder on a domestic job, none of it fits.
This is a free browser generator built on the sections HSE actually requires — you fill it in and download it, no gate, no fee.
Structured on HSE’s six required sections
Yes — on every construction project
Under CDM 2015 a construction phase plan is required for every construction project, including domestic work. Where there's one contractor they prepare it; where there's more than one, the principal contractor does.
It must be ready before construction work starts and kept as a live document, updated as the job changes. Keep it proportionate — a small job needs a short, focused plan, not a ring binder.
Notifiable projects and the F10
A construction phase plan is always needed. Notifying HSE with an F10 is separate — only required where a project is expected to last more than 30 working days with more than 20 workers at once, or exceed 500 person-days.
The tool has an F10 field for when it applies, but the plan itself is needed either way.

An aid, not health-and-safety advice
This helps you produce a construction phase plan in the right shape — it doesn't assess your site, and it isn't health-and-safety or legal advice. You are responsible for the content, its suitability, and the competence behind it.
The structure follows HSE guidance (CIS80, checked August 2026), but rules and circumstances vary — make sure the plan genuinely reflects your project.
Turn it into a connected job workflow
FieldHive keeps the enquiry, quote, job, invoice and payment connected — so it's built from the accepted quote instead of retyped, and the numbers carry through.
