Level-1
Health & Safety Construction (for CSCS Green Card)
Online / Classroom
Course Overview
The Level-1 Award in Health and Safety in a Construction Environment is a fundamental qualification designed to provide individuals with essential knowledge of health and safety practices within the construction industry. It is a key requirement for obtaining the CSCS Green Labourer Card, which allows individuals to work legally on construction sites in the UK.
This course covers crucial topics such as risk assessment, hazard awareness, manual handling, working at height, and site safety procedures. It ensures that workers understand their responsibilities and how to maintain a safe working environment for themselves and others.
Aimed at new entrants to the construction sector, the qualification supports the development of a safety-first mindset and promotes a strong health and safety culture across the industry.
Study Modes : Online(self paced) / Classroom
This course is available through two flexible study modes: online and virtual classroom. The online option allows learners to complete the course at their own pace, from anywhere, with 24/7 access to interactive learning materials. For those who prefer real-time instruction, the classroom option is delivered live via Zoom, offering an engaging, tutor-led experience with opportunities to ask questions and participate in discussions. Both modes cover the same content and lead to the same recognised Level-1 qualification required for the CSCS Green Labourer Card.
Due to the language of the assessment, it is recommended that learners have sufficient command of the English language in order to understand the assessment and to undertake the recommended assessment methods.
