What is the SSSTS Course?

Your Foundation for Site Supervision

The SSSTS (Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme) course is a key qualification for individuals who have, or are about to acquire, supervisory responsibilities on a construction site. Endorsed by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) and a core part of their Site Safety Plus scheme, this two-day course provides supervisors with a fundamental understanding of health, safety, welfare, and environmental issues.

During the SSSTS course, delegates will gain insight into:

• Legal Responsibilities: Understanding their duties under relevant health and safety legislation, including the Health and Safety at Work Act and CDM Regulations.
• Risk Assessments and Method Statements: Learning how to contribute to and implement these crucial documents for managing site hazards.
• Site Inductions and Toolbox Talks: Developing the skills to effectively communicate safety information to their teams.
• Supervisory Role: Understanding how their role fits within the broader site management structure to ensure a safe working environment.
• Effective Monitoring and Intervention: Recognizing unsafe practices and confidently addressing them.

The SSSTS course is designed to empower supervisors to effectively promote a positive health and safety culture, reducing risks and ensuring the well-being of all on site. It is often a mandated qualification for those in supervisory positions across the UK construction industry.

Why a Physical Classroom is the Preferred Choice for Your SSSTS Training

While online learning platforms have their place, for a hands-on and responsibility-laden role like that of a site supervisor, a physical classroom setting for the SSSTS course offers distinct advantages:

 Direct Engagement with Experienced Tutors: In a classroom, you benefit from immediate, face-to-face interaction with instructors who often have extensive real-world experience in construction. This allows for instant clarification of queries, in-depth discussions of practical scenarios, and invaluable personalized guidance that can be difficult to replicate online.

Interactive Learning and Peer Collaboration: Learning alongside other supervisors from various projects and companies provides a rich environment for sharing experiences, discussing common challenges, and learning from each other's insights. Group exercises and discussions in a classroom setting enhance understanding and critical thinking far more effectively than isolated online modules.

Dedicated Focus and Minimal Distractions: The structured nature of a physical classroom removes you from the typical distractions of a home or office environment. This dedicated learning space allows for concentrated focus on the course material, leading to better comprehension and retention of vital safety procedures.

Practical Application and Real-World Scenarios: Many classroom SSSTS courses incorporate practical activities, role-playing, and scenario-based problem-solving that closely mirror actual site conditions. This hands-on experience is crucial for developing the confidence and skills needed to apply theoretical knowledge effectively on site.

Enhanced Accountability and Structured Pace: Attending a scheduled classroom course promotes a sense of commitment and accountability, ensuring you progress through the material at a consistent and effective pace. This structured approach can be particularly beneficial for those who thrive in a more formal learning environment.

Better for Non-Native English Speakers: For individuals whose first language is not English, the immediate feedback and visual cues available in a classroom can significantly aid understanding of complex terminology and concepts, making the learning process more accessible and effective.

Choosing a physical classroom for your SSSTS training with RISK at one of their London locations demonstrates a commitment to thorough and impactful learning. It equips you not just with a qualification, but with the practical confidence and collaborative spirit essential for effective site supervision.
