Non-construction occupations do not require a CSCS card
Not everyone needs a CSCS card. The following occupations are non-construction related, meaning these workers do not require a card to access sites.
If your occupation is non-construction related and your entry to site is refused because you do not hold a card, please direct the site manager to this webpage
Alternatively, contact us directly via the Contact us page, providing details of your occupation, the main contractor’s name and the site address.
CSCS will investigate and, if necessary, arrange for the site team to be contacted.
