CITB Health & Safety Awareness

This course is designed to aid understanding of the potential hazards that the construction worker may face on site.

It provides a practical summary of health and safety, welfare and environmental issues – identifying individual responsibilities for looking after themselves & others, outlines the employers duties & explains what should be done if the worker thinks that anyone’s health and safety is being put at risk.

The course is an ideal foundation for those wishing to obtain an industry site card. It is also an alternative 
route to the QCF Level 1 Award in Health and Safety in a Construction Environment for the CSCS 
Laborer Card. 

The course provides health and safety awareness and is endorsed by Build UK as standard training for all 
operatives on site.
