This applies to every level of competence and responsibility, from skilled site workers up to full management staff. There are a very few exceptions to this rule (if, for example, you have achieved a construction NVQ or SVQ within the previous two years and are applying for your first card, you may not need to pass the Health, Safety & Environment Test).
