“With the addition of the supervisors’ cards, I’m delighted that we are now able to offer the full range of CSCS cards for asbestos removal staff. That is temporary and skilled worker cards for operatives, supervisors and managers,” commented Steve Sadley, Chief Executive of the Asbestos Removal Contractors Association (ARCA).

“We continue to receive card applications daily, with virtual smartcards being requested by the majority of applicants. There have been some applicants who have left their application to the last minute so the availability of a virtual smartcard, which can be on their phone (after downloading the app) within minutes of the application being processed, has definitely been a benefit to them.”
