    Course Details

    Product number: CITB_SSSTS_R

    Course Aims

    This course will provide delegates with improved and refreshed knowledge of recent developments in construction, legislation and health, safety, welfare and environmental issues. It will also allow delegates to identify measures which will assist the practical implementation of responsibilities established by new legislation and working practices.

    Please Note: The minimum age of attendance for this course is 16 years old, however delegates who are under the age of 18 must bring a completed Parental Consent Form to the first day of the training course.

    Now Available

    • You can now book your Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) CSCS Operatives Touchscreen Test through HSS Training.

    The Operatives test ensures workers have a minimum level of health, safety and environmental awareness before going on site. To apply for a CSCS Labourers Green card, delegates will need to successfully complete both the Operatives HS&E test and the Site Safety Plus Health & Safety Awareness course, holding both valid certificates. CSCS cards provide evidence that individuals working on construction sites have the appropriate training and qualifications for the job they do on site, and contractors or clients in the UK require workers to hold a card before they are granted access to a site.

    Virtual Classrooms

    Can't find the date you're looking for?

    The SSSTS Refresher course is also available through Remote Learning, where delegates can complete training and gain their certification via Virtual Classrooms.

    Virtual Classroom training has been created to allow delegates to gain and develop the required knowledge outside of the classroom - connecting live with a HSS Trainer through a webcam.
