Course programme

Course content:

CSCS exists to meet industry needs and is managed by CSCS Limited whose Directors all come from the Construction Industry. It is a Company Limited by Guarantee and therefore has no shareholders.

The members of the board are from the UK Contractors Group, the Civil Engineering Contractors Association, the Federation of Master Builders, GMB Union, National Specialist Contractors Council, T&G Section of UNITE (Building Crafts Section) and Union of Construction, Allied Trades and Technicians. The Construction Industry Council and the Construction Clients Group are also represented on the Board.

ConstructionSkills administers the Scheme under contract.

Supporters

CSCS is demanded as proof of competence by organisations from across the industry as well as employers, clients and Government.

All sites are required to declare the percentage of workers who hold CSCS cards and to record details of site operatives' and visitors CSCS cards.

The Office of Government Commerce (OGC) through its document Common Minimum Standards for the Procurement of Built Environments in the Public Sector, states that governmental clients “are to include a contract clause requiring that all members of the supply teams who are workers or a regular visitor to a construction site are registered on the CSCS scheme”.

The Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) has made it clear through its support of Construction Commitments 2012 and its own health and safety standard that all professional and site staff involved in construction of the Olympic facilities will be required to hold a valid CSCS card or card affiliated to the scheme.
