About the CIDB Green Card (e-SICW) Exam

The CIDB Green Card pathway starts with a compulsory Safety Induction for Construction Workers (SICW / e-SICW). The CIDB Holdings e-SICW CIDBH programme covers five modules—introduction/law/environment, planning and site risk, risk works, work environment and health dangers, and welfare & security—then tests understanding with a 40-question online self-assessment (50% pass mark, 1 hour).

CIDB Green Card (e-SICW) Study Tips from Top Performers

1Complete every e-SICW video module before attempting the real self-assessment—questions test what you watched, not general construction experience alone.

2Memorise the legal core: Act 520 construction personnel registration, OSHA 1994 employer/employee duties, and that working without a valid Green Card exposes you to enforcement action (CIDB Holdings cites a RM 5,000 fine example for unregistered personnel).

3Drill high-risk work controls—working at height, scaffolding tags, excavation edges, lifting exclusion zones, confined-space permits, LOTO for electrical work, and Permit-to-Work for hot work—because these dominate site induction exams.

4Treat PPE as the last line of defence after elimination, substitution, engineering and administrative controls; know which PPE protects which body part and when to replace damaged gear.

5Know your site’s assembly point, how to report accidents, and basic first-response steps (raise alarm, do not move seriously injured persons unless there is immediate danger).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CIDB Green Card and why is SICW / e-SICW required?

The CIDB Green Card is the Construction Personnel Registration certificate issued by CIDB Malaysia. Under Act 520 Section 33, construction personnel must be registered. A recognised construction safety induction—SICW, eSICW, eSICW CIDBH, or another CIDB-accepted safety passport—is a prerequisite before you can register and legally work on Malaysian construction sites.

How many questions and what pass mark does the e-SICW CIDBH self-assessment use?

CIDB Holdings publishes a 40-question online objective self-assessment lasting one hour, with a 50% passing mark. One free re-test is allowed after a 60-minute wait (or within the remaining 14-day window). This practice bank has 100 questions to strengthen the same five module topics.

How much does e-SICW CIDBH and Green Card registration cost?

CIDB Holdings lists the e-SICW CIDBH course at RM 60 per participant. Separate Green Card registration fees on CIDB’s CIMS system are RM 35 for 1 year, RM 60 for 2 years, RM 85 for 3 years, RM 110 for 4 years, and RM 135 for 5 years. Physical SICW classes from other providers usually cost more—confirm before paying.

CIDB Holdings lists five modules: (1) Introduction, Law, Rules & Environmental Management on Construction Sites; (2) Planning, Layout and Risk on Construction Sites; (3) Risk Works; (4) Worked Environment and Health Danger; and (5) Welfare & Security. Video learning is about 2.5 hours within a 14-day activation period.
