SMSTS and SSSTS Training: Supporting Safer Construction Sites
Effective site management and supervision are essential for maintaining safety, compliance, and productivity within the construction industry. At Combined Safety Solutions, we are pleased to announce that we will soon be offering a simple online booking system for both Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) and Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) courses, including the refresher courses required to keep qualifications up to date.
What is SMSTS?
The Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) is designed for construction site managers, project managers, and other senior personnel responsible for planning, organising, monitoring, and controlling work activities.
The course provides a comprehensive understanding of health and safety legislation, risk management, site responsibilities, and best practices for maintaining safe working environments. Successful completion demonstrates a commitment to safety leadership and helps ensure compliance with industry standards.
What is SSSTS?
The Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) is aimed at individuals who have, or are about to take on, supervisory responsibilities within the construction sector.
This course equips supervisors with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively manage health and safety on site, understand legal responsibilities, carry out risk assessments, and communicate safety requirements to their teams.
Why Are Refresher Courses Important?
SMSTS and SSSTS qualifications are not valid indefinitely. To maintain certification and stay informed of the latest legislation, industry guidance, and best practices, delegates must complete the relevant refresher course before their qualification expires.
Refresher training helps ensure that managers and supervisors remain confident in their responsibilities and continue to promote safe working practices throughout their organisations.
SMSTS Refresher
The SMSTS Refresher course is designed for delegates who currently hold a valid SMSTS certificate and wish to renew it. The course updates participants on legislative changes, current industry issues, and evolving health and safety requirements.
SSSTS Refresher
Similarly, the SSSTS Refresher course allows site supervisors to renew their qualification while refreshing their knowledge of their legal duties, risk management responsibilities, and leadership role in maintaining site safety.
Easy Online Booking Coming Soon
To make booking training easier than ever, Combined Safety Solutions will soon be launching a dedicated online booking system. This will allow delegates and employers to:
