NRSWA Supervisor
The NRSWA Supervisor course is designed to educate the supervisor on the health and safety aspects of street works.
Any street works site must have at least one qualified operative on-site at all times during works. The site must also have a qualified supervisor appointed to the site who can oversee the works. The supervisor need not be on-site at all times but must be able to adequately carry out the role.
The supervisor qualification does not replace or overrule the operative qualification and one person cannot cover both roles at the same time. The tutor will also provide written work in the course.
Who should attend the NRSWA Supervisor course?
Operatives who physically carry out the work on the roadways and highways attend the course.
