Safe Pass is a comprehensive construction safety awareness course for which the attendee must have a good level of both spoken and written English to be able to absorb the information. At the end of the day, there is a multiple-choice question test that must be passed to successfully complete the Safe Pass course. SOLAS does not allow someone to translate for you during the test, talk with anyone else during the test, or use any electronic device during the test. You must be over 16 years old to attend.
Please remember that you must bring with you the following.
- A passport-size photo, we cannot provide one for you on the day.
- A valid Photo ID (Passport or Driving License).
- A valid PPS number – If you do not have a PPS Number, please inform us no later than 2 working days before your course date, so we can get a temporary process number issued by SOLAS for you to attend the course.
- Your current/old/expired Safe Pass card, if it’s available.

Why should you take the SafetyTraining.ie Safe Pass course?
The Safe Pass tutor has a Degree in Construction Management and a Degree and a Masters Degree in Health & Safety Management and Environmental Management, along with QQI teaching qualifications. I have also actively worked in construction for many years on the tools as a tiling contractor which makes me a very pragmatic trainer.
We provide tea, coffee, and biscuits for the mid-morning break. The Midway Foodcourt is next door, it has Subway, Burger King, and the normal garage services. You can, of course, bring sandwiches if you prefer.
