THE REGISTER OF LAND BASED OPERATIVES (ROLO) HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS COURSE

If you work in; amenities, arboriculture, countryside management, ecology and environmental management, landscape and maintenance, modular paving, pesticides and pest control you may well need ROLO training – but how do you know?


​WHAT IS ROLO?
​ROLO (Register of Land-based Operatives) was developed by the British Association of Landscape Industries (BALI) to raise the standards of health and safety and reduce risks and accidents throughout the industry for anyone who works in the land-based sector and was officially recognised in 2014. ROLO takes the form of a one day Health, Safety and Environmental Awareness Course  and is a prerequisite for anyone applying for a LISS/CSCS SmartCard.

LISS/CSCS is administered jointly by BALI (British Association of Landscape Industries) and CSCS (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) as a standalone scheme but it is also a requirement of the National Highways Sector Scheme 18 (NHSS18), which is mandatory for all contractors working for Highway England and other infrastructure providers. The NHSS18 scheme aims to ensure organisations working on roads have a trained and competent workforce.

ROLO certificates are valid for 5 years. On application for your LISS/CSCS SmartCard, it is mandatory that your ROLO has been completed within the past 2 years.

​DO YOU NEED ROLO TRAINING?
Amongst other things LISS/CSCS provides a framework for skills development and is often accepted for access to commercial sites. LISS/CSCS covers many land based sectors such as:
​

• Arboricultural Activities
• Landscape Construction
• Landscape Maintenance
• Environmental Management Activities
• Application and Management of Pesticides​​
  

• Ecological Management Activities
• Amenity
• Survey of Flora and Fauna
• Countryside Management
• Hard Landscaping

​BALI administers the scheme on behalf of CSCS and applicants for a LiSS/CSCS card send their evidence of achievement to BALI who will then validate the application (for a fee). All applicants for these cards must attend a LISS/BALI recognised ROLO Health, Safety and Environmental Awareness course such as the courses delivered by EMTS and pass the CITB Health, Safety and Environment ‘Touch Screen’ test at a touch screen centre.

There are many different types of CSCS card too – if your staff are using the Blue Skilled / Gold cards (craft and operative) then these cards are now administered by the LISS/CSCS scheme, hence ROLO will apply (at least to any future workers).
