    The Drainage Network Operative scheme is for individuals who are employed as a Drainage Network Operative within the utilities sector, supporting the safe operation of wastewater and drainage systems.

    The scheme is evidence based and requires individuals to hold a Drainage network operative (ST1348) apprenticeship certificate and hold the relevant Health & Safety pre-requisite EUSR registrations for SHEA Drains & Sewers or SHEA Water.  This ensures that both industry and individuals’ employers can be confident in their skills, knowledge and behaviours to perform the tasks and responsibilities associated with the role of a Drainage Network Operative.

    The scheme is CSCS affiliated, and the EUSR registration carries the CSCS logo, which permits individuals access onto construction sites as Drainage Network Operatives for the purposes of providing essential on‑site support to inspect, clean and maintain private and public drainage systems.
