CITB SSSTS Course in Bolton, Greater Manchester (Classroom)

2-Day CITB SSSTS in Bolton, Greater Manchester

SSSTS is an accredited CITB course for construction site supervisors. The SSSTS course is a nationally recognised safety qualification and it is now a requirement set out by many major contractor groups for all supervisors working on site. The SSSTS CITB Course is attended by thousands of delegates every year across the country and is endorsed by the UK Contractors Group as the standard training for all supervisors on UKCG sites.

Construction skills and workplace safety should go hand in hand, this safety course makes it a priority to encourage improved safety skills and reduce accidents and injuries. Every year thousands of employees are injured at work, with many working in the construction industry. Due to these high numbers, it’s essential that all organisations comply with the law, running a site with minimal risk to employees. Not only is the SSSTS course a requirement by industry groups, it is also the ideal course for anyone looking to take a supervisory role in the construction industry.
