IOSH safety passport

Delegates who successfully complete our Working Safely course can choose to receive the IOSH certificate and/or passport card as proof of their qualification.

The IOSH safety passport is a credit card size card outlining a worker’s health and safety training. As well as a photo, the robust plastic card includes a number of other security features and an expiry date, to make sure that training is up to date.

Why a passport card?

A card is a quick, practical way of confirming a worker’s training credentials. The cards are ideal for contractors or multi-site workers. They can be used to show the standard and level of training; as an identification card and as a site card.

Key benefits

• The cards are a simple way to demonstrate that you value health and safety.
• Contractors and multi-site workers prefer a card to a certificate, as it’s more handy and portable.
• Using a card to show that workers have basic training saves time on inductions they’ll just need site-specific training.
• They demonstrate that training is up to date - each passport expires after three years.
• Security features include a photo, hologram and signature, meaning they’re more tamper-proof and fraud-proof than a certificate.
