It is awarded after completing the CITB Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) and is designed to equip supervisors with the knowledge and skills to maintain high standards of health and safety on site.
At Target Zero Training, we deliver CITB-approved SSSTS courses that prepare you to take on leadership responsibilities while ensuring compliance with UK regulations.
