CSCS Green Labourer card training comprises of three elements:

Certification: We will send your CITB certificate to you on completion of your course. These can take up to 10 days to process by CITB. Please keep hold of this certificate as you’ll need it when applying for your CSCS Labourer card.
2. CITB Touch screen test £42 + VAT
At our CITB accredited test centre in Fife you can sit your HS&E test – also known as the CSCS health & safety test. Our centre is based just a 5 min drive from the Lochgelly junction of the A92 and we have free parking and lots of availability.
There are three types of CITB HS&E tests available:
-
- Operatives
-
- Specialists
-
- Managers and professionals
For the purpose of the CSCS Labourer card most candidates sit the Operatives test, however if you or your employees require a Working at Heights Specialist test for example – this may also be sat.
Further information about this test, special assistance and study materials is available on our Health and Safety test page, alternatively please give us a call. We’d be happy to help.
Test cost: £42 + VAT
Test availability: Please get in touch either via email or give us a call on 01592 720033 so we can find the most suitable date and time for you. We offer early morning test slots and later afternoon slots to help work around work / other responsibilities. Online booking available here!
Certification: On completion of your test you will be given a ‘score report’ which will tell you if you’ve passed or failed. The score report will also detail any areas in which you’ve answered questions incorrectly. Please keep hold of this score report as you’ll need it when applying for your CSCS card.
3. CSCS card £30 + VAT
Now you’ve completed both courses you’re ready to apply for your card! It’s an easy process – all you’ll need to hand are your certificates from the above courses and a debit or credit card.
Please visit the CSCS website and hit ‘apply for a CSCS card’ button and follow the steps.
Please be aware that if you apply for your card yourself CSCS will only charge you £30 + VAT. If you are paying more than this, then you have not applied directly with CSCS. Please use the link above to apply directly with CSCS.
If you’d like us to apply for your CSCS card for you an additional administration fee of £20 + VAT will be applicable. We will take care of the application and either post your card to you or let you know when it’s arrived so you can pop in and collect it
Labourer card validity
In February 2025 the rules regarding the validity of the CSCS labourer card have changed.
The labourer card is valid for two years on first application. Workers who continue to work in labouring roles can renew for a further five years by providing evidence that they are employed in a labouring role.
For further information about these changes please see the Labourer card page on the CSCS website.
