Worker competence
Every worker's cards, in date before they're booked.
Worker competence in Assured Contractors is a register of each contractor's people and their qualification cards — CSCS, CPCS, NPORS, IPAF, ECS and more — with card numbers, expiry dates and photos, so a client can see whether each person is ready for a site before they arrive.
Contractors add their team and their cards once, free, with no per-worker fee, and every client they work for sees the same record. Your reviewers check the cards, Assured Contractors reminds before they expire, and jobs, bookings and the gate all read the same record.
- Reminders at 90, 60 and 30 days
- Front and back photos, or a PDF

- No surprises at the gateAn expiring card shows up weeks ahead, not when the operative is standing at the barrier.
- The right card for the taskJobs and bookings look for the card the work needs — CPCS or NPORS for a crane operator, IPAF for a MEWP.
- Renewals that get bookedContractors are reminded at 90, 60 and 30 days, and their training register shows every card that's due.

What's included?
People and their qualification cards, with expiry reminders, a training register and readiness for each site.
Every common UK card
CSCS, CPCS, NPORS, IPAF, CCNSG, ECS, 18th Edition, Gas Safe and more, each with its card number and expiry date.
Photos of the card
Front and back photos, or a PDF certificate, stored on the record for your reviewers to check.
Reviewed by your team
Your reviewers accept or reject each card. Cards are recorded and reviewed — there's no live link to CSCS Smart Check.
Expiry reminders
Reminders at 90, 60 and 30 days before a card expires, so renewal courses get booked in time.
Training register
Contractors see every card their team holds by type, status and expiry date, so renewals are planned rather than discovered.
Readiness for each site
Whether each worker is ready for a site, and why: assigned or not, cards in date, company approved.
Overrides that end
Let someone work while a renewal is in progress. An override needs a reason and ends on the date you set.
Message any worker
Send a worker a message by email; their replies come back into the conversation in Assured Contractors.
Worker PDF
Download a worker's record, with their cards and expiry dates, as a PDF.
How it works
How does it work, step by step?
The contractor adds their team
Each person is linked to the company that engages them.
Cards go on each record
Scheme, card number, expiry date and a photo of the front and back, or a PDF.
Your reviewers check them
Accept or reject each card against what your work needs.
Readiness works itself out
Each worker's readiness for a site updates as cards, assignments and company status change.
Renewals are chased
Reminders go out at 90, 60 and 30 days, and the contractor's training register shows what's due.
Does Assured Contractors check CSCS cards with CSCS?
Not automatically. Assured Contractors records each card's scheme, number, expiry date and photos, and your reviewers accept or reject it. There's no live link to the CSCS Smart Check service.
Your reviewers can check a card with CSCS's own Smart Check app, then accept it in Assured Contractors.
Which cards can be recorded?
The common UK construction and industrial schemes — CSCS, CPCS, NPORS, IPAF, CCNSG, ECS, 18th Edition, Gas Safe and others — each with a card number, expiry date and photos or a PDF.
Who adds the cards: us or the contractor?
Usually the contractor's own admin, who keeps their team's cards in their profile at no cost: contractors pay nothing, however many workers they add, and can photograph the front and back of each card on a phone. Every client they work for sees the same cards and reviews them independently.
What happens when a card is about to expire?
The contractor is reminded at 90, 60 and 30 days, and the card shows as due in their training register. Once a card expires, the worker's readiness changes and the reason shows at the gate.
Can someone who isn't ready still work?
Yes, if you decide so. A readiness override needs a reason and an end date, and is recorded in the audit log with who made it.
Do workers need to install an app?
No. Assured Contractors is a web app that works on phones, tablets and computers. You can also message any worker by email.
