Carrying a CSCS Green Card demonstrates that you have the appropriate knowledge and skills for the job.
After completing the Green CSCS Card Course, you’ll become eligible to apply for the CSCS Green Card. Getting the CSCS Green Card will help you get work on a construction site as a labourer (bricklayer, carpenter, plumber, etc.).

Frequently Asked Question
The Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) is the council that works to promote health and safety within the UK’s construction industry.
The CITB Health and Safety Test provides an introduction to operating safely on a construction site. Construction workers who have cleared this test help give assurance to employers that their workforce is and can continue to be safe at work.
Having cleared this test in the past 2 years is also a requirement in order to apply for the CSCS Green Card.
CSCS stands for ‘Construction Skills Certification Scheme’.
The CSCS Authorities issue the CSCS Cards as proof that their cardholders have sufficient health and safety knowledge to perform their duties safely on construction sites.
Working without a CSCS card is not a legal requirement. However, the industry itself introduced the cards under advice from the government, which is why many construction sites and major contractors require their workforce to have a valid CSCS card on them.
The CSCS Green Labourer Card allows individuals to work on construction sites in any entry-level position, including general labouring, painting and decorating, tiling, and traffic management.
This qualification is valid indefinitely, which means you will never have to do this course again.
Also, our training courses have been approved and are accepted by both CITB and CSCS.
