The aim of the CCNSG Safety Passport Scheme is to ensure a basic knowledge of health and safety for all site personnel to enable them, after appropriate site induction, to work on site safely, with lower risk to themselves and others.

The safety passport scheme is guided by the Client/Contractor National Safety Group (CCNSG), a national steering group for the scheme. It is a formal sub-committee of the ECITB reporting to the ECITB through the ECITB Management Board.

The ECITB has operational responsibility for the formal management of the Safety Passport scheme whilst the committee’s focus is related to theongoing determination of the scheme’s content, standards for approval of Training Providers, future development of the scheme and integrity assurance.
