Summary: | The aim of this report is to compare social identity (ID) card schemes in the construction sector in different European countries to make recommendations for the design of a social ID card scheme in the construction sector in Romania. Social ID cards provide information on the employer and employee to confirm if workers on a construction site should be on the site or not as well as other information about the worker (e.g., health and safety certificates, training successfully undertaken, driver licences). To understand social ID cards, it is useful to view them as a certification tool for a worker containing visible and secure electronic information. They are an example of the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs). This report evaluates in detail the social ID card schemes in 11 European countries, namely: Belgium, Finland, France, Iceland, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, and Sweden.
