ARCA is now operating the ARMI Skills Card Scheme, which is a nationally recognised construction skills card scheme carrying the CSCS logo.
Cards carrying the CSCS logo provide a means to verify that people who want to work on constructions sites have the necessary training, qualifications and experience for the type of work they carry out. All physical smartcards issued by ARCA use smart technology and contain an electronic chip. This can be used to check the identity of the card holder and, for example, when ARCA updates a card holders’ record with ‘successfully completed operative annual refresher’ this will automatically update the chip in the card. Virtual smartcards can also be issued to applicants, at no additional cost, if the applicant provides a personal mobile number and email address on the application form. A virtual smartcard is a smartcard that is stored in an app on the card holders’ smartphone or tablet (this can be used instead of or as well as a physical card). Full details on the smartcard system and app are available here ARCA ARMI Skills Cards currently available: Asbestos Removal Operative - temporary red cards and blue skilled worker card Asbestos Removal Manager – temporary red cards and black manager card Cards for other occupations, such as asbestos removal supervisors, will be made available when the requirements are published by the Standard Setting Body (CITB). Full information on the scheme is available to download on this page, with specific information and application forms for manager and operative cards available on the relevant webpages found via the links on the left of this page.
