SSSTS (CITB) - Supervisor Site Safety Training Scheme

The Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) is a national accreditation body recognised by the UK Construction Group (UKCG) and Major Housing Building Group (MHBG). The CITB accredits the Site Safety Plus Scheme, which provides construction, civil engineering and allied industries with a variety of CITB courses. Starting with a CITB health and safety awareness qualification, continuing further to an intermediate supervisory level, the scheme then progresses to advanced managerial level qualifications. The Site Safety Plus Scheme is only offered through accredited training providers, ensuring that the highest quality standards are met.

On successful completion of these CITB courses delegates will then be certificated for a five year period. Certificates may take six to eight weeks to be distributed therefore where a proof of passing is necessary a letter can be given whilst awaiting certification.

The Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) is a two day course designed for those working as a site supervisor. It is recognised as one of the key qualifications under the Site Safety Plus Scheme making it one of the most popular CITB courses and awards.

The SSSTS course will consist of how the supervisory role can support the site manager in upholding safety on site; risk assessments and a further understanding of health and safety relating to supervisors on site.
