No, not on your own. The SSSTS (Site Supervisors Safety Training Scheme) allows you to supervise on a construction site, but not run or manage the entire site idependently.
SSSTS is for supervising workers and focusing on health and safety at team level and a SMSTS is for managing the entire site, covering safety, legal duties, planning and leadership.
No, the SSSTS course is not a NVQ. The SSSTS course is a 2 day training course accredited by CITB and focuses on health and safety responsibilities for site supervisors this results in a certification, not a qualification level and is valid for 5 years.
