What is an ECS Related discipline card?

There are a number of specialized electrotechnical occupations which do not have industry Scottish Vocational Qualifications (SVQs) and are therefore unable to receive specific ECS disciplines. To address this problem, the SJIB introduced a card for "ECS Related Disciplines".

To qualify for the "ECS Related Discipline" Card applicants must:-

• Have successfully completed the ECS Health and Safety Assessment or an approved equivalent.
• Have their Employers support and recommendation.
• Identify the appropriate ECS Related Discipline (click here for a list).
• Complete the ECS Related Discipline Initial Application form.

ECS discipline cards are not applicable to Self Employed or Un-Employed Operatives.
