Most people start with the Green Labourer card: pass the CITB Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) test and a Level 1 Award in Health and Safety in a Construction Environment, or a CSCS-accepted course such as the CITB Health and Safety Awareness course or NPORS Site Safety Awareness.

Course content

  • Health and safety law and everyone's responsibilities
  • Hazards, risks and risk assessment
  • Common workplace hazards, from slips and trips to manual handling, COSHH and fire
  • Reporting accidents and incidents

Assessed by a multiple-choice exam: 20 questions in 45 minutes.
