The Green Labourer card is evolving from February 2025.
The card’s duration will initially be two years instead of five. However, businesses that can verify their commitment to a labouring role will have the opportunity to extend the card’s lifespan to a full five years.
Starting from the 1st of February, 2025, the Labourer card, upon first application, will be valid for two years. Those continuing in labouring roles can renew the card for five years, provided they present proof of employment in a labouring role.
In addition, the CITB Health, safety, and environment test, required only for the initial two-year card application, will now be valid for three years, making it applicable for renewal.
Existing Labourer card holders seeking renewal from February onwards will qualify for another five-year card upon presenting the necessary evidence.
