Construction Manager In Training (CMIT) Practice Test

The CM can require removal of a contractor or subcontractor employee with whom the CM deems objectionable.

False Not allowed Only if the owner approves The CM can require removal of a contractor or subcontractor employee with whom the CM deems objectionable.

Correct Answer:

The CM can require removal of a contractor or subcontractor employee with whom the CM deems objectionable.

Explanation:

The key idea is that the construction manager has the authority to control who works on the site to keep safety, quality, and progress on track. As the owner’s on-site representative, the CM can require removal of a contractor or subcontractor employee whose conduct or performance is objectionable and could jeopardize the project. The contractor is expected to replace that person promptly, so work continues without unnecessary delay. This authority is part of how the CM enforces contract terms, safety rules, and project expectations. If a removal is disputed, the contract’s dispute mechanisms would handle it, but the CM’s directive to remove objectionable personnel is generally within authority and does not require owner approval for each case.
