The TWC (other than the PC's TWC)
General
Where a client appoints a contractor, or a PC appoints a sub-contractor to manage and possibly also
design the temporary works for which they are contracted, a TWC should be appointed to assist the
PC9s TWC to fulfil their duties (see 11.2.3).
The TWC should be aware that the PC9s DI defines the PC9s TWC9s lines of responsibility in relation
to each contractor9s TWC and/or TWS, which is employed on the site, using Figure 2 and Figure 3 for
guidance (see 5.1).
