CSCS Tests at Mast Safety
Book Your CSCS Test in Hainault

Q: Which CSCS test do I need to take?

The CSCS test you need depends on the card you’re applying for. Most labourers and operatives require the Health, Safety & Environment Test for Operatives, while supervisors and managers must take a higher-level test such as the Supervisor (Spec-Sup) or Managers & Professionals (MAPS) test. If you’re unsure, our team can help you choose the correct CSCS test before booking.

Q: Do I need a CSCS test for a Green Labourer Card?

Yes. To apply for a CSCS Green Labourer Card, you must pass the CSCS Operatives Test and complete a recognised Health & Safety Awareness course. Mast Safety offers both the course and the CSCS test at the same venue, making the process quicker and easier.

Q: How long is the CSCS test valid for?

A passed CSCS test is valid for two years. You must apply for your CSCS card within this time or you’ll need to retake the test.

Q: How long does the CSCS test take?

Most CSCS tests take 45 minutes, although some specialist or higher-level tests may allow slightly longer. You’ll complete the test on a computer under exam conditions.

Q: Is the CSCS test multiple choice?

Yes. All CSCS tests are computer-based, multiple-choice exams that assess your knowledge of health, safety and environmental issues relevant to your role.

Q: Can I do my CSCS course and test on the same day?

Yes. If you’re applying for a CSCS Green Card, Mast Safety offers the Health & Safety Awareness course and CSCS test at the same venue, allowing you to complete everything in one visit.

Q: What do I need to bring to my CSCS test?

You’ll need to bring valid photographic ID (such as a passport or driving licence) on the day of your CSCS test. Without valid ID, you will not be allowed to sit the test.
