Health, Safety & Environmental Assessment
Before you can apply for an ECS card you'll need to pass an ECS Health, Safety & Environmental Assessment - or have a valid exemption. Find out more below...
You must have an up-to-date health and safety qualification in order to be awarded with an ECS card. Why? It's designed to prevent accidents and promote safety and quality of work, to ensure all cardholders have a good level of health and safety awareness when on site.
You can meet the ECS H&S requirement by passing the ECS HS&E Assessment. Alternatively you might have a valid ‘exemption’ – this means you already hold a qualification that meets or exceeds the required level of H&S knowledge.
Unfortunately we cannot accept the CSCS H&S assessment, as the ECS test is specifically designed for health and safety relating to electrotechnical workers.
The ECS HS&E Assessment pass is valid for 2 years.for making an ECS application. You must submit your ECS application within that two-year period, or you’ll need to do a new assessment before your application can be processed.
