What Is the CSCS Card Test?

To obtain a CSCS card, most applicants must pass the CITB Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) test — a multiple-choice exam covering essential construction site safety knowledge including personal protective equipment, fire safety, manual handling, working at height, electrical safety, and environmental awareness.
