A Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) card is the easy way to prove that you are competent in your occupation and have health and safety awareness. And as it is the size of a credit card with your photo and unique reference number on it is easy to slip into your wallet to use as instant identification when you arrive on site.
So why CSCS
CSCS has been in existence for over 10 years. It was started to help the construction industry get quality up, accidents down and cowboy builders out. These are still the scheme's main objectives.
So why choose CSCS
CSCS is fast becoming the industry standard. It is supported by organisations such as the Major Contractors Group (MCG), National Contractors Federation (NCF), Major Home Builders Group (MHBG) and Civil Engineering Contractors Association (CECA) all of whom are committed to a fully qualified workforce by the end of 2010.
Now major clients are also requesting that their contractors have a CSCS carded workforce. These include government, housing associations, NHS projects and private clients such as BAA.
