Description

Evidence Requirements

The Network Construction Operations (Gas) scheme is for individuals working on gas network infrastructure sites and categorises some aspects into ‘size’ categories; it can also incorporate registration of an individual’s specialist skills.

Registration on NCO (Gas) is available in the following categories. Please click on sections to view the evidence requirements:

In addition to the registration categories listed, an individual will also be registered as either ‘Self-Lay’ or ‘Distribution’ pathway, or both.  This is determined by the qualification/units completed or the apprenticeship undertaken.

As a guide:

  • the unit for working on ‘Sites’ is Self-Lay pathway
  • the unit for working in the ‘Highway’ is ‘Distribution’ pathway

Registration on EUSR

Registration on EUSR is gained when the required certificate evidence has been submitted and verified.

Individuals must hold a valid EUSR registration for SHEA Gas.

NCO (Gas) registration is valid for 5 years, with the exception of the Trainee and Experienced Worker categories.

Trainee and Experienced Worker registration is valid for 18 months. Individuals may only be registered once.

More information on Plastic Smart Cards

All new EUSR registrations now come with a virtual card by default, which makes checking the card quicker and more secure on site and reduces the plastic we all use. Some employers may also pay £3 for an additional plastic smart card. You must provide a mobile number to receive an SMS message with a unique registration and PIN number to access your virtual card.
