How to qualify as a Plant Operator
Plant operators must obtain a CPCS (Construction Plant Competence Scheme) or NPORS card for each machine category they operate. This involves a theory test and a practical assessment. Common categories include 360 excavator (A59), forward tipping dumper (A09), and telehandler (A17).
Career progression
Plant operators with multiple machine tickets are highly employable. Career progression can lead to lifting supervisor, appointed person, or plant manager roles. Self-employment via CIS is common and day rates are competitive.
