Validity of CSOC and SSIC Certificates

Based on revised requirements, the validity of course certificates for the Construction Safety Orientation Course (CSOC) and Shipyard Safety Instruction Course (SSIC) issued to workers will depend on their period of employment in Singapore. A worker with less than 6 years work experience will be issued with a 2-year certificate while a worker with 6 years or more relevant work experience will be issued with a 4-year certificate.

With effect from 2 July 2007, employers and employment agencies can check via the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) website URL link if their employees have attended the above courses and if they will be issued with certificates valid for 2 or 4 years. This information can then be conveyed to the ATP to facilitate the issuance of the certificates.
