NCSO™ Program
Designed to develop and/or enhance health and safety training and auditing skills, the NLCSA’s National Construction Safety Officer (NCSO™) program will assist individuals in becoming more marketable in today’s workforce. The NCSO™ program is a health and safety designation program specifically for individuals working in the construction industry, and has a primary goal to expose the participant to the fundamentals of construction safety management and build upon personal field experience.
Persons who achieve the NCSO™ designation will have demonstrated a combination of formal training and a minimum of 3 years of field experience in the construction industry. In achieving the NCSO™ designation, individuals can provide valuable support to employers in the implementation and maintenance of a company’s comprehensive health and safety program and can play a key leadership role in effective health and safety management.
Individuals who have achieved the designation should be able to:
Assist management to implement, maintain, and monitor a company’s health and safety system;
Review and identify various health and safety issues specific to the work site and company operations;
Communicate effectively with Government, Occupational Health and Safety Officers, management, and workers regarding all aspects of health and safety; and
