    Introduction

    At Target Zero Training we support the construction industry by delivering qualifications that help supervisors lead with competence and confidence. Our sssts training courses continue to be one of the most in demand pathways for professionals who want to strengthen their knowledge of safety, leadership, and legal obligations on site.

    Supervisors today must guide teams, maintain safe environments, and communicate instructions clearly. SSSTS helps achieve all of this, which is why it has become a trusted requirement across the industry. In this guide you will learn why SSSTS is essential, what the course covers, how to prepare for the assessment, and why learners consistently choose Target Zero Training.

    What Does an SSSTS Training Course Cover and Why Does It Matter?

    Understanding why SSSTS is vital for supervisors

    Our SSSTS Training Courses give delegates a solid understanding of their supervisory duties and the legal expectations placed upon them. This qualification helps learners understand how to influence behaviour, maintain team safety, follow construction regulations, and identify hazards before they escalate.

    It is valued across the UK because it strengthens the culture of safety that every project requires.

    What you will learn during SSSTS Training

    Delegates gain practical knowledge including:

    • How to understand supervisory responsibilities
    • How to deliver effective toolbox talks
    • How to respond to site risks quickly
    • How to support behavioural safety
    • How to implement safe systems of work
    • How to follow legal requirements in daily tasks

    Our trainers use real site examples so the content remains practical, relevant, and easy to apply immediately.

    Who Should Attend SSSTS Training Courses?

    Our sssts training courses are suitable for anyone who supervises or oversees others on site. This includes those who are:

    • Taking on a first supervisory role
    • Assisting site managers
    • Leading small teams
    • Required to deliver safety briefings
    • Responsible for monitoring work areas

    For anyone aiming to progress toward site management, SSSTS is the essential first step before SMSTS.

    How Tough Is the SSSTS Test and How Can You Prepare for It?

    Understanding the exam format

    The SSSTS assessment includes written questions and multiple choice questions. Learners must show a clear understanding of risk control, legislation, and supervisory responsibilities. The qualification is very achievable when you prepare correctly.
