CITB Behavioural Case Study Practice Test – CSCS Mock Test | CSCS Revision

1. John turns up for work on his first day; he is running a bit late and rushes into the office where his supervisor is waiting to give him his site induction. During his site induction the supervisor explains where the fire assembly point is located but John seems confused and can’t quite figure out where he should go if there’s a fire evacuation. What should John do?

Pretend that he understands and try to get the induction over as quickly as possible as he is already late for work.

Just let his supervisor finish the induction and ask one of his colleagues during the day.

Explain to his supervisor that he’s still not sure and ask him to explain it again.

Carry on with the induction and ask his health and safety rep during the day.

2. After completing his induction, John is taken to his work area, he’s given ear defenders because he will be working in a hearing protection zone. John puts on the ear defenders but he notices that one pad in missing. What should John do?

Start working and wait until his next break to get a new one.

Use a piece of cloth to create a substitute and carry on working.

Get a new one immediately and don’t enter the hearing protection zone until he has sufficient hearing protection.

Take off the ear defenders and carry on working without it.

3. John completes his task in the hearing protection zone and he’s heading to the canteen for his break. On his way there he notices a loose panel hanging from the ceiling which no one else seems to notice. What should John do?

Avoid walking under the loose panel and carry on to the canteen for his break.

Report it to his supervisor immediately and inform his colleagues of the hazard.

Carry on to the canteen as it’s not his job to report health and safety hazards.

Wait until he’s finished with his break and then report it to his supervisor.

4. After returning from his break, John is given a task which requires him to wear a full body harness but he’s never worn one before. What should John do?

Carry on with the task and try to figure it out as he goes along.

Explain to his supervisor that he’s never worn one before and ask for someone trained and competent to train him.

Observe what his colleagues are doing and try to copy what they’re doing.

Ask for the instructions and read through it quickly before starting.
