CCNSG SAFETY PASSPORT
CCNSG SAFETY PASSPORT

In the early 1990s a consortium of major industrialists from the power generation, steel, oil & gas and chemical industries recognised the need to train their contractors in basic safety.

Most provided a site induction, some were training their contractors, but there were no common standards. Two groups, in the North East and in West Wales, working in co-operation set out to standardise their basic safety training and devise a core curriculum which became the foundation of a training scheme which has grown to national proportions.

The scheme is monitored and controlled by the Client/Contractor National Safety Group (CCNSG). Representatives from major clients are nominated by local safety groups to serve on the CCNSG and there is also representation from contractors’ training providers and trade unions. The CCNSG meets regularly to ensure that standards are being maintained and that the content of the training scheme continues to meet current safety legislation and current safety practices.

The Health and Safety Executive has monitored the scheme from its early days, and has shown its support by attending the launch of the scheme in several new locations. Continued support from HSE has been a feature as passport schemes have gained prominence. Local safety groups have been established in a number of locations throughout the UK and over 70 Training Providers have been approved by the ECITB to deliver the training on behalf of the CCNSG.

AIM
The CCNSG Safety Passport Scheme ensures a basic knowledge of health and safety for all site personnel to enable them, after appropriate site induction, to work on site more safely with lower risk to themselves and others.
