What if I Lost My SSSTS Certificate?
If your SSSTS certificate has expired, you might be wondering what your next step is. It’s not uncommon for construction supervisors to find themselves in this situation, especially if they haven’t kept track of renewal dates. In today’s blog, we’ll discuss what you need to do if your certification has expired.
Understanding the Validity of an SSSTS Certificate
Your certificate is valid for five years from the date of completion. Once that time passes, it’s no longer considered valid, and you’ll want to renew it to ensure that you continue meeting site supervision requirements.
Can I Renew It?
There’s no grace period, so if your certification expires, you’ll need to take the full Site Supervisor course again rather than the Refresher.
Why You Should Keep Your SSSTS Certificate Up to Date
Letting your SSSTS expire can affect your job prospects and site eligibility. Many employers require valid certification for legal and insurance purposes. Staying on top of your renewal not only protects your position, but also demonstrates a professional commitment to health and safety standards.
Options If Your SSSTS Certificate Has Fully Expired
If your certificate is no longer valid and you’re beyond the refresher window, don’t panic. You can simply re-enrol in the full two-day SSSTS course. Some providers, including CST Training, offer online options, making it easier to fit into your schedule. It’s also a good opportunity to refresh your knowledge, and stay current with industry regulations.
Conclusion: What if I Lost My SSSTS Certificate?
You’ll need to take the full course again. You can only take the Refresher course while your SSSTS is still valid.
