CITB SMSTS Refresher - Site Manager Safety Training Scheme

The SMSTS - Site Manager Safety Training Scheme is aimed at delegates who have previously passed the full SMSTS - Site Manager Safety Training Scheme or this subsequent Refresher course, and can provide documentary proof of successful attendance within the last 5 years, such as certification.

Delegates should:

• Have a good understanding of written & spoken English. If delegates have any problems with English literacy or language comprehension, they must bring them to the attention of their employer.

The agenda for the SMSTS Refresher - Site Manager Safety Training Scheme includes:

• Health & Safety Law, including CDM Regulations
• Health & Safety Policies, risk assessments and method statements
• Induction, training, communication and leadership and worker engagement
• Inspection & Audit, statutory forms, notices and registers
• Accident prevention, control, reporting and investigation
• Management of health, welfare facilities, stress and mental health at work and drugs and alcohol
• COSHH, Lead, Asbestos, Dust, Fumes, Noise and Vibration and Manual Handling
• Site organisation, fire prevention and control, electrical safety and temporary works
• Plant and work equipment, mobile plant and vehicles, lifting operations and equipment and mobile workforce and driver safety
• Work at Height Regs, safe working at height, common access equipment, scaffolding, fall arrest and suspension equipment and excavations
• Underground and overhead services and confined spaces
• Multiple Choice Examination

Successful delegates will receive an SMSTS - Site Manager Safety Training Scheme e-certificate accredited by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), valid for a period of 5 years from the course date.

To remain certified, you will need to take another SMSTS Refresher - Site Manager Safety Training Scheme prior to the expiry date listed on your certificate, otherwise the full course will need to be retaken once again.

The natural progression from the SMSTS - Site Manager Safety Training Scheme is the NEBOSH Health and Safety Management for Construction (UK) Course.
