CITB Temporary Works Supervisor

A CITB Temporary Works Supervisor training course


Why Choose Harrington Safety For Your Temporary Works Supervisor Training

Here at Harrington Safety, we deliver industry-recognised temporary works training to construction professionals across London and the surrounding areas. Our one-day Temporary Works Supervisor Training Course (TWSTC) is designed to support those on site who have responsibility for supervising temporary works and ensuring they are managed safely and effectively.

The course is delivered by experienced industry professionals who provide practical insight into the Temporary Works Supervisor role and the wider temporary works environment, ensuring delegates gain a clear understanding of their responsibilities.

Who is the Temporary Works Supervisor Course Suitable For?

The CITB Temporary Works Supervisor Training Course (TWSTC) is designed for individuals who supervise or oversee temporary works on construction sites. This includes site supervisors, forepersons, team leaders and others with day-to-day responsibility for ensuring temporary works are carried out in accordance with approved procedures.

The course focuses on the processes involved in temporary works management, with particular emphasis on the role of the Temporary Works Supervisor (TWS). While this is not a technical design course, essential elements of technical awareness are included and signposted throughout the training and course exercises.

Delegates will gain a clear understanding of the duties of a TWS, the roles of others involved in the temporary works process and the importance of communication, coordination, cooperation and competency (the 4Cs).

It is important to note that attendance on this course does not, in itself, confer competency as a Temporary Works Supervisor. Competency is achieved through a combination of education, training and experience and should be assessed by an appropriate senior individual, often referred to as the Designated Individual (DI). Training is, however, an essential element of TWS competence.

What You Can Expect From Our Course

  • The role and duties of the Temporary Works Supervisor

  • Temporary works procedures and management processes

  • An introduction to BS 5975:2024 and its application

  • Understanding the roles of others within temporary works

  • Risk management and safety considerations

  • Communication, coordination and cooperation (the 4Cs)

  • Common types of temporary works and associated risks

  • Site-based responsibilities and supervision requirements

The course explains the management process outlined in BS 5975:2024, which introduces the Temporary Works Supervisor as a key figure in the coordination and control of temporary works. This approach is applicable to both small and large projects where temporary works are safety- and business-critical.

Upon successful completion, candidates will receive the CITB Site Safety Plus Temporary Works Supervisor certificate, which is valid for 5 years. To remain certified, the course must be retaken before the expiry date.

We started using Harrington Safety in 2021, the staff are very helpful and professional and go above and beyond to help with last minute requests.

The feedback from our operational team is that training is professional and informative.

Anonymous

Very well structured, managed and informative course provided by both professional and personable staff. The theory and practical tuition that I received put me in good stead to go straight in and operate a 10 ton cherry picker safely and with confidence, both essential factors when using such equipment. I would recommend Harrington Safety Ltd to anyone needing not just to get qualified, but to also feel comfortable operating MEWP systems for their trade.

Georgi

Ryan was really good instructor, he made sure we understood the theory part of the course and gave us enough time to practice with the machines, so we felt confident before move on to the test. Excellent training!!

Brendan

Phenomenal training, Ryan’s ability to teach and ensure I fully understood each module in both theory and practical before moving on has left me confident in transferring these skills to the work place.

Roy

To start with, this course was outstanding. I've been on a lot of training courses over the years and some are good and some are boring and you can't wait to leave. This course was engaging, the instructor included all students. There was no useless information everything was current and valid no fluff or fillers if you like. The practical was straight to the point and spot on. All in all a good experience and brilliantly put together training course. Top instructors and staff. Highly recommended training facility.

Neil

Very good presentation by Gary and very helpful when answering questions.

Harrington safety will be my number one go to for any courses I need to do. I completed my IPAF 3A and 3B and passed 1st time. They let you do the eLearning at home that helps me because of my current position at work. Thank you Paul for a smooth and clear instruction of both the boom and scissor vehicles and Charlie for getting onto IPAF to get my online card quicker, will definitely recommend.

Paul and Charlie were both a pleasure to deal with - very professional, helpful and friendly. Great service and would highly recommend to all. Many thanks.

A well run professional course. Delivered concisely and practically.

Anne

First time using Harrington Safety and I found them to be very professional.

The booking process was easy, their responses to any questions was nothing short of instant and their follow up was there!

Thank you Harrington, and I will definitely use you again and advise others to do so.

Daniel

My certificate and my card arrived today. Thanks for your help, and wonderful attitude. I have many certificates, but your centre is the best. For my next certificate I will be calling you! Thanks.

Alan F

Great teacher, would recommend his courses and will come back to him in future.

Paul was a very good teacher. Easy to understand and helped me when needed. I felt comfortable in his classroom and confident to ask questions. When friends ask, I will recommend.

Ray H

Very knowledgable and passionate tutor

When arriving, I was nervous and unsure of my abilities. The trainer made me feel at ease as soon as I came in. If I needed to ask questions I did, and they were answered clearly and in a way I understood. The practical work was challenging but my trainer guided me through and made it as interesting as possible. Will definitely be recommending this company.

Michael

The training was perfectly delivered. I will be quite happy to take my training here again

Laurean

Excellent, will strongly recommend

Karen

Nice people to deal with. Easy website to navigate. Variety of training needs can be met in Covid secure training environment.
