SkillGuard for Utilities

The Comprehensive Worker Passport for the Utilities Sector

The system provides an industry-wide database that holds all necessary information about members of your workforce. This gives you visibility of your supply chain workers' competence and authority to work for the first time.
Each worker has a unique record linked to this database, and it's paired with a secure smartcard. This record travels with them and is transferable between jobs - even if they change employers.
With over 30,000 workers and 1,000 organisations already on the system, isn't it time you registered?

Reference Point and EUSR are Working in Partnership on SkillGuard for Utilities

Quality-assured EUSR registrations are automatically passed to SkillGuard for Utilities for any SkillGuard record holder whose EUSR number is recorded on the system. This benefits the entire sector, saving organisations time and avoiding duplicated data entry - all at no extra cost.

About EUSR 

EUSR develops schemes (or unregulated qualifications) – always in collaboration with employers and other key stakeholders – such as industry bodies and regulators – so the content, design and assessments meet employers’ needs.

Employers can be confident that if an individual has successfully completed an EUSR scheme, they have the knowledge and skills required wherever they are in the country, and regardless of who did the training.

“One of our biggest challenges, is ensuring that each one of our thousands of contractors who work across different sites and different employers, have the right competencies, and that those competencies are up to date.

With SkillGuard for Utilities, we can pre-check everyone ahead of arriving on site, and we can also spot check anyone at any time, which is especially useful in the event of an incident.

Our safety improvements have been dramatic over the last eight years because of it. We've reduced our lost time injury frequency rate down to industry-leading standards.”

Gareth Mullen, Head of Safety, Health & Wellbeing, H&S Policy & Systems, Thames Water.
