BCCSA

Construction Field Experience

Three (3) years or 6000 hours of construction field experience within the previous ten (10) years.

Construction field experience is defined as:

A construction worker (labourer or skilled construction tradesperson) working directly and actively in the construction field (i.e. residential, commercial, industrial, road building, pipeline construction, mobile equipment operations, etc., or similar title); or, an individual who is directly and actively engaged in safety (i.e. Site Safety Coordinator, or similar title) or responsible for the supervision (i.e. Site Superintendent) of the construction worker, who also works directly and actively in the construction field on a full-time basis.

Note: At least two out of the three required years of field-level construction experience must have been in Canada. BCCSA will accept up to one year of field-level construction experience gained outside of Canada towards your NCSO® application.
