What is the pass mark?

You need 45 out of 50 — 90% — in 45 minutes to pass the real CITB HS&E test.

How much does the real test cost?

The current CITB fee is £22.50. UK Test Hub mocks are free.

Where do I sit the real test?

At a Pearson VUE test centre. You book it through the CITB website and bring photo ID on the day.

Is this the same as the Managers & Professionals test?

No — that uses different scenario-based questions. We have a separate CSCS Gold / Supervisor mock for that.

About this mock

Difficulty: Beginner

CSCS Operative Mock 10 keeps safe access at the centre of toolbox-talk style scenarios. On safe access, candidates separate PPE choices, emergency awareness and manual handling rather than merging the clues. Where options look close, the detail around safe access helps explain the correct choice. For CSCS Operative Mock 10, review safe access as the short revision target.
