The TLM Level 1 Award in Health and Safety within the Construction Environment is a recognised qualification that helps you understand how to work safely on a construction site.
This qualification is one of the requirements for applying for a CSCS Labourer (Green) Card, but the card itself is not issued by TLM.
After you achieve your TLM qualification, you must also:
-
Pass the CITB Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) Test, and
-
Apply directly to CSCS to obtain your Green Card.
You can find the full application process, fees, and supporting documents on the official CSCS website: CSCS Labourer Card - How To Apply
