Construction Safety Coordinator (CSC)

Gold Seal is a national certification program for construction managers.  It is run by the Canadian Construction Association and has until now covered Project Managers, Estimators, Superintendents and Owners' Project Managers. 

The Gold Seal CSC Designation: Gold Seal Certified Construction Safety Coordinators work directly on a construction site and are responsible for assisting management  (and other company personnel) in the administration, development, implementation and monitoring of the safety, health and environment (HSC) program.  Safety coordinators identify and review a variety of safety, health and environment issues specific to the jobsite and keep management current on the status of any issue(s) that may impact on the work being performed.

Requirements: Safety managers who hold a valid provincial/territorial Construction Safety Officer designation will be automatically qualified to write the Gold Seal Exam.  Without this designation, managers will need a combination of related HSE experience, certificates and education.  Those without sufficient credits to write the Gold Seal exam can register as a Gold Seal Intern with a commitment to work toward the full certification. 

Administration: Local and provincial construction associations, working as closely as possible with construction safety associations, will receive and provide a first review of applications.

Exams will be written at the local construction associations, and marked by national construction safety experts.
