CITB Health & Safety

Completing this course is essential before a delegate can apply for a CSCS Green Card to work in the construction industry. The CITB Health & Safety Awareness Level 1 course covers a wide range of health and safety topics which are relevant when working on a construction site.

Upon completing the health and safety course, delegates will have an awareness of a wide variety of potential hazards and dangers within the construction industry.

The course covers the following:

  • Their individual responsibilities for their own safety and the safety of others
  • Typical construction hazards and how these are controlled
  • How everyone can help achieve better practical standards of safety on site
  • Legal Requirements and Liabilities
  • Working at Height
  • Manual Handling
  • Fire Prevention
  • Work Equipment
  • Occupational Health + F20

Delegates will complete a written multiple-choice examination at the end of the course.

Delegates must then complete the online touchscreen test in order to apply for their CSCS Green Card.

You are required to bring a valid in-date photo ID e.g. Driving Licence or Passport

It is recommended that a refresher course is taken every 5 years to keep up to date with the latest CITB safety guidelines.

This course is mandatory to become a labourer on a construction site. One you receive your CITB certificate, you can apply for your CSCS green card to begin on-site employment.

If you wish to advance up to a managerial or supervisory role we advise you to sit the CITB Site Manager Supervisor Training Scheme or the CITB Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme, both of which are available at Complete Training Solutions.
