  CSCS Health & Safety Tests For Plumbers

A new JIB paper based health and safety test was introduced by the Board in 2009 which replaced the Prometric Test which ceased to be valid for the issue of a JIB Registration and Grading Card from 31 December 2009. The Board believes that the new paper based test will offer more flexibility to employers as the test can be administered on employers’ premises at a time during business hours which best suits the firm’s workload and availability of employees.

There are two ways of accessing the new JIB Health & Safety Test.

1. Employers can apply to register suitable members of their staff to act as invigilators who can then conduct the tests on the employer’s own premises (or other suitable venue) at a time that suits the employer. These invigilators will need to apply to the JIB to become an approved invigilator – see application Form B opposite.

Invigilators can thereafter apply for the required number of tests and the test papers will be sent to the invigilator who can then conduct the tests at a suitable time (tests must be undertaken within 3 months of issue of the test papers). The invigilator will then return the test papers to the JIB to be marked. The pass or fail result will be notified to the invigilator within three weeks of the JIB receiving the test papers. If successful the JIB will issue a certificate, a congratulatory letter and a Plumbing JIB (CSCS) registration card.

If you wish to book tests for more than one individual you will also be required to complete and return the summary sheet (Form A1).


2. Employers or sole traders who are unable or who do not wish to appoint their own invigilator to administer the test can select test dates and venues from a published list available from the JIB office or on the JIB website. (see opposite)

These local venues will have their own invigilators conducting tests on the published dates. Candidates will be required to apply to the JIB in advance for a test on one of these dates and provide correct payment and candidate details (See Form A). The candidate’s individual and unique test paper will be sent to the pre selected test venue for the candidate to attend and complete on the selected date. The invigilator will return the test papers to the JIB to be marked. The pass or fail result will be returned to the individual candidate within three weeks of the JIB receiving the test papers. If successful the JIB will issue a certificate, a congratulatory letter and a Plumbing JIB (CSCS) registration card.
