 Introduction
The Register of Landbased Operatives (ROLO) Health & Safety and Environmental awareness course has been designed to increase the profile of health and safety and thereby reduce the number of accidents causing harm to operatives within the land-based sector. It also takes into account the need to align to professional standards such as the competency framework demanded by National Highways Sector Scheme 18 (NHSS18) for the Environment and Landscape including ecology.
The aims of the scheme are to:
- Provide a means of identification
- Keep a record of workers in the landbased industry who have achieved a recognised level of competence
- Raise the standards of health and safety to reduce the risks and accidents throughout the industry
- Encourage employers to use only ROLO card holders who have accredited health and safety training.
- Provide a recognised route for health and safety training in the National Highways Sector Scheme 18 (NHSS) accreditation.
- Provide an industry specific accredited route to to Landbased Industry Skills Scheme/Construction Skills Certification Scheme (LISS/CSCS).
- Move towards an increasingly qualified workforce, thus improving customer satisfaction and the industry's image.
