All LISS/CSCS SmartCard applications require a unique email address and home address to be provided for the cardholder.

This email address can be a company or personal address, but it must be unique to each cardholder.

There are 2 main reasons that a unique email must be given for each cardholder:

  • Due to data protection legislation, the cardholder must be made aware that a card has been applied for on their behalf. When you apply for a LISS/CSCS card for an employee, CSCS sends that employee an email letting them know what a card application has been made on their behalf.
  • No matter who fills in the application form, a LISS/CSCS card ultimately belongs to the cardholder. As such, when an employer applies for a LISS/CSCS card for an employee, the employee must be informed that they now own a LISS/CSCS card.  

The simplest way to do this is by email.

When completing the online application form please refrain from using special characters, including hash, apostrophe, dash or hyphen, forward slash etc.
