Safety Passports, the Key to Site Access
GENERAL
Many employers/clients will insist that anyone working on their sites has a basic understanding of Health & Safety, specific knowledge of the particular risks associated with their sector and the ability to work safely. In order to achieve this they make it mandatory, for anyone entering their site, to have a current Safety Passport .
Each passport schemes is specific to a certain sector and, in the vast majority of cases, one sector will not recognise the safety passport of another. This means that workers who move between different sectors often have to carry multiple passports. As an example, a worker who switches between work on oil refineries and construction sites will have to have both a CCNSG Site Safety Passport and a CSCS Card. Please see our FAQ section for more information.
Providence Training’s Passport courses are scheduled regularly at our Centre at Neyland, Pembrokeshire with the exception of our MPQC/SPA Mineral Sector Passport which is held monthly at Pontypridd. All are also available to be booked as a company or organisation specific course which could be held at our Centre, at your premises or site or any suitable third party venue.
