Why is this course so important?
Construction sites are responsible for more workplace deaths than any other industry. The UK construction industry is responsible for 1.6 fatal injuries for every 100,000 workers. Falling from height and heavy machinery accidents are the most common causes of fatal accidents, but fire, hazardous substances, and poor occupational health are almost as deadly.
A well-supervised construction site is a safe construction site, but it’s not easy to prepare your workers for supervisory roles. That’s where the CITB SSSTS Course steps in. This comprehensive two-day course gives new chargehands and site foremen the knowledge they need to bolster your management team’s site safety efforts.
