Audience

This guide is designed for construction professional.

Steps​

Step 1: Open the minor works list​

From the Temporary Works section, open the Minor Works Allowlist. The current list of exempt item types loads automatically.

Look through each item type to see which minor temporary works are currently allowed to skip the full design and permit process.

Step 3: Add or change an item​

Add a new type of minor works to the list, or change an existing one, if you have permission to set temporary works policy for the project.

Step 4: Remove an item​

Remove a type from the list so it goes back to needing the full temporary works process.
