Focus on: Health & Safety

Ensuring workers are aware of all the health and safety issues on site helps to reduce accidents, has a positive effect on your business profitability, reduces downtime and lessens the risk of litigation. ConstructionSkills can help on many levels, with products and services to help develop health and safety skills and grants available to support training.

One of the simplest ways to ensure workers’ health and safety knowledge is up to date is to sit the Health and Safety Test. This helps prove workers have met the minimum standard and helps them qualify for most card schemes.

Our Site Safety Plus course is designed to help people from apprentice level through to senior manager develop a thorough understanding of the key health and safety issues within the construction industry. This can be followed up by a refresher course after the initial 5 years.

We are also able to offer further health and safety training through National Construction College, including Construction Design and Management, working at height, and health and safety awareness courses.

ConstructionSkills is also the leading supplier of health and safety publications to the construction industry, with titles such as Construction Site Safety (GE700) and Toolbox Talks (GT700)
