SJIB Grade (ECS) Cards

The SJIB have seen a significant increase in the number of fraudulent certificates and cards circulating over the last few months and treat this matter very seriously. In 2000 the SJIB National Board introduced the following rules:

• Any operative who submits forged certificates to the SJIB when applying for their card will have their existing card removed and no further applications will be considered for a period of 6 years, i.e. the lifetime of two cards.
• If an operative with a genuine SJIB Grade card submits a false application for re-grading will be allowed to retain their existing grade, however no further applications for re-grading will be considered for a period of 6 years.

These rules will be applied if, after a thorough investigation an individual is found guilty of either offence.
