S001 - Health And Safety Awareness

Course Objective

The objective of this course is to provide delegates with the knowledge and skills required to gain access to and work safely on site.
This course is a recognised equivalent to CITB’s Health & Safety Awareness and will enable candidates to obtain a Green CSCS Labourer card.

The NPORS National Plant Operators Registration Scheme is now one of the UK’s leading CSCS affiliated carding schemes and is accepted across the Construction, Industrial, Utilities, Warehousing and Port and Marine sectors to name a few.

Content

Upon successful completion of the course, candidates will have gained practical skills and knowledge to:

  • Health and safety law
  • The need to prevent accidents
  • How your role fits into the control and management of the site
  • Risk assessments and method statements
  • Ability to perform safely and ask for advice
  • Know how to report unsafe acts to prevent an accident

Assessment

Multiple-choice theory test (25 Questions [NPORS Traditional])

Certification

Upon booking the course you can request NPORS CSCS route, or NPORS for the NPORS Traditional route.*

Successful candidates will obtain an NPORS ‘National Plant Operators Registration Scheme’ card on completion. Those requiring the CSCS-embossed Red Trained Operator card (2 year validity) will need to have a valid CITB HSE test; during this 2 year period candidates will need to achieve the relevant plant operations NVQ that will enable them to upgrade their Blue Competent Operator card (5 year validity).

Alternatively, candidates not holding a valid CITB HSE test will only be eligible to receive the traditional 3 year NPORS operator card (5 Year NPORS Card available on request only), however this doesn’t carry the CSCS logo and isn’t as widely recognised.

Entry Requirements

It is important that any candidates have a good understanding of spoken and written English, interpreters are available upon request for those who are not fluent in English. All candidates will need to provide their own appropriate PPE for training and testing purposes..

CITB Levy Registered

If you are registered with the CITB ‘Construction Industry Training Board’ KH Plant Training can help you claim CITB grant automatically on completion. This money is paid direct to you, we’ll simply submit the application on your behalf.
