-Lorry Loader Operator

The new ALLMI card with CSCS logo

The ALLMI training scheme will continue in its current form, in other words, there will be no changes to the content or method of delivery/assessment in relation to any of the above courses.

Cards displaying the CSCS logo will be issued in connection with training paperwork / applications received by ALLMI from 1st November 2016 onwards. For paperwork / applications submitted by training providers before this date, an ALLMI card of the current type – without the CSCS logo -will be issued.
As of 1st November current ALLMI cardholders can order a replacement card which will display the CSCS logo.

From the start of January 2017, Build UK members will require lifting team personnel to hold a CSCS branded ALLMI card, should the cardholder’s activities on site be classed as a “construction occupation” i.e. protracted site work, rather than materials delivery.

ALLMI chief executive Tom Wakefield said: “This year, we have undergone an independent audit which was mapped against the Construction Leadership Council’s requirements for the One Industry Logo initiative, the successful completion of which now enables us to display the CSCS logo on ALLMI cards. We are delighted with this development; the achievement of CSCS approval is excellent news for ALLMI and it further strengthens our position as the UK’s leading provider of training for all lorry loader lifting team roles.”
