The use of CSCS SmartCards

The difference at the Tottenham Court Road tube station upgrade project is that JV contractor VINCI Construction UK/BAM Nuttall (VBN) is requiring all site based staff to hold CSCS SmartCards in order to reduce costs and improve safety on site.

Using SmartCards brings a number of benefits including eliminating holders of fraudulent CSCS cards gaining site access and reducing administrative time to check CSCS cards are valid and appropriate to workers’ roles on site. They also provide access to VBN’s in-house training records system to enable site managers to check that workers have received the necessary training to undertake their jobs safely.
