What is a CSCS Card?

Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) Cards are an important part of the operation of many construction sites in the United Kingdom, and especially at Code A Weld. We recognise that a CSCS card is very frequently made a mandatory requirement for those who work on a construction site in the United Kingdom. This mandate was introduced alongside a number of necessary steps that permit workmen to legally work on construction sites.

What About My CRO Card?

A CRO Card is a Construction Related Occupation (CRO) Card which was previously issued to those working in the construction sector. CRO Cards were officially dropped by the Construction Skills Certification Scheme in 2017. This was in order to make the nationally accepted requirements for construction workers more simple and consistent across the country. Those who previously held a CRO Card must complete a welder approval test, a health and safety test and a job knowledge test in a welding process of their choice in order to be fully approved.
