The amount of protein in your urine typically corresponds with the severity of damage to your kidneys. Testing for Protein A simple urine test will determine if you have any protein in your urine. An abundant type of protein in your blood is a small molecule called albumin. Small amounts of albumin in the urine may be the first sign of kidney problems. As kidney damage continues to worsen, more protein will appear in urine tests.
Principal Contractor: the Contractor or any other contractor duly appointed by the Employer as the Principal Contractor pursuant to regulation 6(5) of the CDM Regulations.
Subcontractors can be anything from an individual self-employed person - eg a plumber carrying out work for a building contractor - to a large national organisation. A subcontractor has a contract with the contractor for the services provided - an employee of the contractor cannot also be a subcontractor. Subcontractors undertake work that a contractor cannot do but for which the contractor is responsible. For example, a building contractor may hire a subcontractor to complete the electrical wiring part of the contractor's building job.
