CCNSG Safety Passport National Course

Aim

The CCNSG Safety Passport course is a nationally recognised qualification which has been designed to offer mandatory and essential basic knowledge to personnel who work on construction and engineering sites. This 2 day course will cover a variety of topics to enable contractors to improve health, safety and environmental awareness.

Many companies require personnel to have completed this course and a company induction before allowing them access to a site or premises. Combining the training with a site induction enables employees and contractors to work more safely and with a lower risk to themselves and others.
