NPORS S029 Construction Site Safety Supervisor Course – Train to Lead. Stay Compliant. Build Safer Sites.
If you’re stepping into a supervisory role on-site – or already in one – this NPORS S029 Safety Supervisor Course gives you the legal knowledge and practical tools to manage safety with confidence.
It’s a 2-day course, approved by CITB and recognised by BuildUK, focused on what site supervisors actually face day to day.
Who Should Take This Course?
You should take this course if:
- You supervise others on construction or civils sites.
- You want to meet legal health & safety responsibilities under UK law.
- You need proof of competency for your role.
- You’re looking for an alternative to the SSSTS (CITB Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme).
No prior qualifications are needed – just a supervisory role (or the intention to move into one).
What You’ll Learn on NPORS S029 Construction Site Safety Supervisor Course
This is a practical course for real supervisors. It covers:

- Managing hazardous substances, dust and fumes.
- Your role in protecting workers’ health and the environment.

FAQs
Is this the same as an SSSTS course?
No, but it’s equivalent. NPORS S029 is recognised by BuildUK and accepted on most sites that require SSSTS or similar.
Can I do this if I’ve never had formal safety training before?
Yes. This course assumes you’re in or moving into a supervisory role but doesn’t require previous certificates.
Do I need to pass a test?
Yes – you’ll complete a written and practical assessment at the end of the course.
Can I do this course on my site?
Absolutely. If you have a group of supervisors and a suitable space, we can run it at your location.
