CITB Site Supervision Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS)
Description
The Site Supervision Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) would benefit anyone considering, or already holding supervisory or management responsibilities on site. It provides an introduction to health and safety, welfare and environmental issues for those requiring an understanding of their legal responsibilities relevant to their work activities.
This course is intended to give site supervisors a clear understanding of how health and safety affects their role and the practical steps they can take to ensure a safe site.
The Site Supervision Safety (SSSTS) Training Scheme can be used as a precursor to attendance on the five-day Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) course and is endorsed by the United Kingdom Contractors Group (UKCG) as the standard training for all supervisors working on UKCG sites.
We can offer this course at centres all over the UK or at your chosen premises with prices starting at £240+VATpp.
