CITB Site Safety Plus training from KeyOstas: the Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) and Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS), with their refreshers. The recognised site safety courses for UK construction site managers and supervisors.
CITB Site Safety Plus is the recognised scheme of site safety courses for the UK construction industry, developed by the Construction Industry Training Board. The two core courses are the Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS), for those with site management responsibility, and the Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS), for site supervisors, foremen and team leaders.
Both courses cover the health, safety, welfare and environmental duties of the role, set against the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 and current HSE guidance. They are widely required by principal contractors before a manager or supervisor can take up a role on site.
KeyOstas has trained UK construction workforces since 1984. All four courses are available in-company, delivered at your premises for a group of your staff, or as scheduled courses.
CITB Site Safety Plus certificates are valid for five years. A refresher course must be completed before the certificate expires to keep it current. If the certificate is allowed to lapse, the full course must be taken again.
