What is the CSCS Green Card?

The CSCS Green Card, also known as the labourer card, shows employers and site managers that you have completed basic health and safety training for construction work. It is the entry-level card for people working in site-based roles that do not require a trade qualification.

Pay securely at checkout. Your application is added to your basket and you complete payment in our normal checkout.
We check and submit. Our team reviews your details and documents and submits your CSCS Green Card application on your behalf. We contact you if anything needs correcting.

CSCS Green Card application FAQs

No. Build Safe Skills is not CSCS. We prepare and submit your CSCS Green Card application on your behalf. The card itself is issued by CSCS.

The Green Card is for construction workers in entry-level, site-based roles who have passed the CITB HS&E test and hold a recognised Level 1 health and safety qualification.

You must be at least 16 years old to apply.

CSCS generally expects the test to have been passed within the last two years. If your pass is older, you may need to retake the test before your application can be accepted.

You need to upload your qualification certificate (JPG, PNG or PDF) and a passport-style photo (JPG or PNG). Each file can be up to 5MB.

You receive a confirmation email straight away. Our team then checks your details and documents and submits your application to CSCS. If we need anything else, we email you. Your card is usually delivered within 5 to 10 days.
