CSCS Mock Test Full 50 Questions 2024

This CSCS mock test is a full 50-question example designed to help you practice and prepare for your real Health, Safety and Environment Test in 2024. All the questions will be pulled at random from some of the core health and safety topics covered in the real CSCS test.

For the real test, you will have 45 minutes to complete 50 multiple-choice questions, you’ll need to demonstrate that you have a good theoretical knowledge of many health and safety topics before you can pass your test and apply for your CSCS card.

Most of the questions in the real test will require a single answer but there are a few which require multiple answers. In keeping with this format, we’ve added questions that require multiple answers so you can get the full experience when attempting any of our CSCS mock tests.

If a question requires two answers, you’ll need to choose both correct answers before you can get a full point for that question, so please ensure that you read each question carefully. The pass mark for this CSCS mock test is 45 out of 50. Good luck!
