In the construction industry, temporary works play an integral role in bridging gaps, supporting structures, and facilitating the seamless transition from one phase of building to another. These pivotal constructions, whether they be scaffolds, props, or shoring provide essential support and safety during projects.

A Temporary Works Coordinator is a trained professional dedicated to ensuring the proper planning, supervision, and execution of temporary works within a construction site. They are the sentinels of safety and the stewards of safety and efficiency.
