Health, safety and environment test - Construction Industry Training Board

This book contains everything you need to know to book, prepare for and sit the health, safety and environment test for managers and professionals. It contains all the questions and answers for tests taken from April 2012.

After consultation with industry we have refreshed the question bank and introduced new elements to the test structure. The new test now includes behavioural case studies, knowledge questions on respiratory risks, a dedicated chapter on CDM and an additional section on the environment.

There are behavioural case studies based on the core principles of the industrys free film Setting out. The film explores what employers and sites must do for workers, and how workers need to behave and interact to constantly changing site conditions.

A dedicated set of respiratory risk questions have been created to help improve awareness and to promote necessary controls. It is widely recognised that management of health risks by industry have not improved at the same rate as improvements in the management of safety risks. Managing the environment goes hand in hand with health and safety. Therefore new questions have been introduced to help everyone understand some basic environmental responsibilities.

A revision DVD is available, which offers the chance to work through the whole question bank and complete simulated tests.

There are also separate publications that support the HS&E test for operatives and specialists, so please ensure that you are revising for the right test.
