- Health & Safety Laws and Regulations
- Responsibilities of employer and employee.

Who Needs Site Safety Plus H&S Awareness
New labourers or labourers who need to renew their Green CSCS card (who will also need to do the CITB Operatives Health & Safety and Environment CSCS test).
Please be aware you will also need to underake the CITB Operatives Health & Safety and Environment test in addition to the course to ontain your CSCS Green Card from CSCS.
As of January 2020 CSCS and CITB have changed the process of obtaining your Green CSCS card. CSCS have now introduced an apply online function which they will more than likely direct all delegates to when applying for their cards.
This process requires delegates to have a copy of their CITB Site Safety Health and Safety Awareness certificate and their CITB Health, safety and environment (HSE) test print out as proof of passing.
This new system means applying for your CSCS card is a longer process than the previous system as us as the provider have to wait for the certification to be issued and sent to us by CITB which can take up to 2-4 weeks.
Our advice is for delegates to book their tests and course with enough lead time.

FAQs
Q: What steps do I need to take to achieve my Green Labourer Card?
A: Follow the 3 steps below:
- Step 1 - Book a CITB Operative Health, Safety & Environment test. Best way to do this is through Pearson View who are subcontracted by the CITB to deliver the tests. Cost is £21 +VAT per person. You'll need to set-up a Pearson/CITB web account - here. There are other test centres available but they just ‘broker’ through Pearson vue and therefore cost more.
- Step 2 - Book the course!
- Step 3 - Apply for your Green Labourer Card (call 0344 9944 777) £36 +VAT. To make it all as easy as possible give the same info at each and every each stage (i.e. use your full name rather than a shortened version).
- It doesn't matter what order you take step 1 and step 2 in but most people take their touch screen test first.
- You don't have to wait until you receive your A4 certificate through the post to apply for your card as we scan the paperwork to the CITB who put it on their system.
- Normally you can apply for the card 3 working days after your course.
- Certificates are sent recorded delivery up to 6 weeks after the course.
Q: How long after the CITB Operatives H&S Test can I attend a CITB One Day H&S Awareness course?
A: We asked the CITB - this is what they said: "The CITB Operative Health, Safety & Environment test is valid for 2 years from passing to be able to pass the one day HSA course and still achieve a CSCS card."
Q: How long do you have to apply for the Green Labourers Card after attending the CITB Health & Safety Awareness Test?
A: 2 years
