About the Red Provisional CSCS Card

The Red Provisional CSCS Card is designed for individuals new to the UK construction industry who have no prior qualifications or experience in construction work. It allows holders to access construction sites, perform work, and earn wages while starting their career.

This card is valid for six months only and cannot be renewed once expired. During this period, cardholders are expected to be working towards completing a construction-related qualification and to apply for the appropriate CSCS card for their specific job role.
