  • Contributing to Design for Safety (DfS): Good Practice's Collection Form

    Please note: This collection form is available in English only.

    Last but not least, your contributions to sharing DfS Good Practices will deliver immense value to Hong Kong’s construction industry. Our CIC DfS online platform currently hosts DfS showcases across 5 core project categories – Civil, Building, Foundation, Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP), and Repair, Maintenance, Alteration and Addition (RMAA) – serving as a free, publicly accessible and searchable resource for the entire industry and the general public.

    By showcasing your DfS implementation on this platform, practitioners and stakeholders across the sector can learn how to systematically eliminate, substitute, isolate and reduce construction safety risks through robust design-led controls. This will drive the industry to take proactive, forward-thinking action to advance safety in the design phase – eliminating hazards at the very early stages of a project and throughout the entire construction project lifecycle. It also fosters close collaboration between Clients, Designers, Contractors, Sub-Contractors and frontline Workers, to manage and mitigate risks by embedding DfS principles into temporary works and all stages of the construction process.

    Together, we can advance our shared goal of “Zero Accidents” by implementing a robust DfS management system, building the ecological foundation for a zero-accident industry, and shaping exemplary corporate safety models across the sector.
    Please take action now by completing the E-submission form below.
    Please note: As content on the platform will be made available for public viewing and downloading for learning purposes, you are recommended to secure internal approval for your submission content prior to sharing.

    We sincerely appreciate your time and effort in sharing your valuable on-site experience. Your contributions directly support industry and public learning, cross-sector knowledge sharing, and our collective mission to embed DfS as a core, lifelong practice across the construction industry.

  • Please read the below steps before filling.

    Step 1: Select Project Class

    Step 2: Select Project Category

    Step 3: Choose from boxes to select all relevant identified RISKS being eliminated / being substituted / being isolated / applied with Engineering Controls, based on Hierarchy of Controls.

    Step 3A: Enter your own wording in short paragraph / short phase to describe those identified risks selected in Step 3 boxes.

    Step 3B: Enter your own wording in short paragraph / short phase to describe general control measure / existing safety provisions applied on Original Design (before applied with DfS Good Practices).

    Step 3C: Provide photo(s) with maximum 20MB of Original Design (before applied with DfS Good Practices) (Require at least 1 photo). Photo Requirements: Landscape orientation, JPG format preferred , and a minimum file size of 500KB.

    Step 4: Enter your own wording in short paragraph / short phrase to describe each identified risk that has been / will be implemented with DfS.

    Step 5: Upload photo(s) with maximum 20MB of DfS Good Practices (Require at least 1 photo). The first photo will be used as the Profile photo of the DfS entry. Photo Requirements: Landscape orientation, JPG format preferred , and a minimum file size of 500KB.

    Step 6: Upload video file with maximum 500MB, format in MP4 / AVI / MOV / WMV.

    Step 7: For transfer of large file size exceeding 500MB, we shall contact you shortly.

    Summary of identified risks: *

    For example:

    Key risks of workers installing building exterior lighting on bamboo scaffolding:

    1. Fall from height: Direct falls from not wearing dual-hook safety harnesses, balance loss in strong winds / heavy rains, overloaded work platforms, or cracked bamboo poles.​
    2. Falling objects: Improperly placed or accidentally knocked handy tools / materials from high-altitude work hit ground workers / pedestrians.​
    3. Inadequate coordination: Overlap with other high-altitude tasks (e.g., window cleaning, paint touch-ups) risks worker collisions or falling tools hitting workers below.
