Construction Health & Safety Awareness

Construction Health and Safety Awareness (GE707) is designed for people who are new to the construction industry. It provides basic health, safety and environment steps that you, your employer and the site or project that you are working on should be following. It is the official publication for CITB’s Health and Safety Awareness (HSA) one-day course.

At the beginning of each chapter is a summary of what to expect from your site and employer and what your site and employer should expect from you. Clear illustrations are included as well as practical guidance for construction workers. The publication follows a standard approach which is used across all CITB’s core publications and this enables easy cross-referencing between publications.

A FREE to access companion page is also available on our website and this supports the publication and provides updates to the current edition along with the latest advice, guidance and links to related websites. To view the companion website, please click here.
