it is in my case I have never used it and I have quoted two builders cleans since getting it, but a few months prior to getting it I couldn't get on site to quote without one so it may come in handy at some point

just the operator card i think just to get on site

[Rob_Mac]

Well done Richy.

Is the card significant - that depends on where you want your work to come from. Most on here don't worry or need a CSCS card because they will never work on a construction site.

If you work on construction you should be asked for it every time you go onto a new site. On the works I do it is photocopied with my IPAF license and if I don't have it I don't get on site.

I have been on about 5 construction sites in the last two weeks, York, Colne, Balham and Basingstoke and another one I can't remember right now. Every time I was asked for the card.
