About this course

The green Labourer card is the fastest door into construction, and this route handles all three steps: the Level 1 health and safety award (one day), the CITB Health, Safety & Environment test, and the card application itself, guided so nothing falls through the gaps. Sites cannot let you work without the card; with it, labouring pays around £15 an hour and the trades ladder starts in front of you.

Who it’s for
Anyone starting in construction with no experienceWarehouse and driving workers moving to site payWorkers whose site needs the card this month
What you’ll learn
» Legal duties on site: yours and your employer's
» Risk assessments and method statements

How the route works
1
Step 1 · The course

One day, classroom or live virtual: the Level 1 Award in Health and Safety in a Construction Environment. Site law, risk, manual handling, height, PPE and hazardous substances.

2
Step 2 · The CITB test

The Health, Safety & Environment touch-screen test at a centre near you. We help you book it and prepare with practice questions.

3
Step 3 · The card

With the award and the test passed, we guide your CSCS application so the green card arrives without the usual back-and-forth.

Day order can vary by centre; your joining instructions confirm your schedule.
