What is a CSCS Card?
CSCS Cards. Why you need them and what we do? The CSCS card (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) is a proof of your qualifications and training for working safely on construction sites in the UK. It shows employers that you have the skills, knowledge, and health & safety awareness to carry out your job properly and safely. You can find more out on https://www.cscs.uk.com/
Why Is It Important?
While not a legal requirement, most major contractors and construction sites require workers to have a valid CSCS card to gain access. It helps raise standards and reduce the risk of accidents on site.

What Is the CSCS Test?
The Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) test—also known as the Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) Test—is a key requirement for working on most construction sites across the UK. It confirms that workers understand essential health and safety practices, helping to maintain a safe working environment for everyone.
Once you’ve passed the test, you can apply for a CSCS card relevant to your role—whether you’re a labourer, skilled worker, supervisor, or site manager.
