CITB Health, Safety and Environment Test for Operatives
The CITB Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) test is an important way for construction workers to show that they can be safe on the job. It’s also a way for them to know that their fellow workers are as safe on the site and not put them at risk of injury. The Course is also relevant for anyone wishing to apply for a Construction Skills Certificate Scheme Card so they can work on UK construction sites.
