CITB SSSTS Course

As a result of the lockdown, we’re now offering both the SSSTS and SSSTS Refresher courses as online courses via Zoom. Participants will receive video training from a qualified trainer and cover the same topics as the classroom course. Upon successful completion of the course you will receive your CITB certificate.

The Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) can be delivered online or in the classroom. The duration for the course in either format is 2 days.

The Site Supervisor Safety Training scheme or SSSTS certificate must be renewed every 5 years, before the date on your existing certificate expires. In order to renew your qualification you must attend and complete a SSSTS Refresher course. Some individuals also look to the SMSTS course for progression.

There are two CITB courses for site supervisors: the Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) and the Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme Refresher course (SSSTS-R).

Both courses are Build UK approved. The SSSTS course seeks to deliver an understanding of health, safety, welfare and environmental issues. The SSSTS course also focuses on legal responsibilities and implementing health and safety measures.

If you are a supervisor, or have supervisory responsibilities then you should consider the SSSTS course with a CITB approved training organisation. Marble Training are a CITB approved.

At the end of the Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme course you will have an understanding of:

• How to use your supervisory position to maintain a safe site
• How you are responsible in implementing health and safety law
• The importance of undertaking risk assessments and producing method statements
• Adequate inductions to sites, method statement briefings, and toolbox talks
• Observing the site activities properly
• Intervening when bad practice is discovered

The Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme course will be assessed via ongoing tutor assessment through interactions, tasks and activities. There is also a multiple choice test at the end of the 2nd day.

You are eligible to take the refresher course if you have previously passed the Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS). Your certificate must be in date at the time of the course.

The SSSTS Refresher course aims to update your existing health and safety know-how alongside any changes in the law and how they might affect where you’re working.

• Enforce all the up to date health, safety, welfare and environmental laws that affect your supervisory abilities
• Enforce any new guidelines and relevant best practices that come of a result of any changes
• Meet your health, safety, welfare, and environmental responsibilities
  

The Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme Refresher course is completed over 1 day. You will have professional guidance from highly qualified and experienced instructors.
