White Card (Construction Induction): Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how to obtain the mandatory safety certification required for anyone working on film sets that involve construction activities.

The White Card, formally known as the Construction Induction training, is a mandatory safety certification required for anyone working on film sets that involve any form of construction work.

Who it's for

This scheme is specifically for individuals who need to work on film sets where construction activities are taking place. If your work involves being present on a set that requires construction induction due to its nature, you will need this qualification to meet safety requirements.

What you get

By completing the training, you receive a mandatory safety certification. This document serves as official proof that you have been inducted into the necessary safety protocols required for construction-related environments, including film sets. This certification is essential for meeting the safety standards required to step onto a construction-style set.

What it costs you

Obtaining this certification involves two main requirements: a course fee and a time commitment. You will need to pay a fee to the training provider and set aside time for a one-day training session to complete the induction requirements.

The catch to know

The most important thing to remember is that you cannot simply take any random safety course. To ensure the certification is valid and recognized, the training must be completed through a registered training organization. If your training is not conducted by an officially registered organization, your certification may not be accepted on the job site.

How to apply

  1. Research and find a registered training organization that offers the construction induction course.
  2. Enroll in the course and pay the required training fee.
  3. Attend the full one-day training session as required by the program.
  4. Once you have successfully completed the training, you will receive your official certification.
