Article 4 Certificates for natural persons
United Kingdom
A certification body as referred to in Article 7 shall issue a certificate to natural persons who have passed a theoretical and practical examination organised by an evaluation body as referred to in Article 8, covering the minimum skills and knowledge set out in Annex I, for the category concerned.
The certificate shall contain at least the following:
the name of the certification body, the full name of the holder, a certificate number, and the date of expiry if any,
the category of natural persons certification as specified in Article 3(2) and the associated activities which the holder of the certificate is entitled to perform, where relevant specifying the type of equipment concerned,
issuing date and issuer's signature.
Where an existing examination-based certification system covers the minimum skills and knowledge set out in Annex I for a particular category and meets the requirements of Articles 7 and 8, but the related attestation does not contain the elements laid down in paragraph 2 of this Article, a certification body referred to in Article 7 may issue a certificate to the holder of this qualification for the corresponding category without repeating examination.
Where an existing examination-based certification system for natural persons undertaking one or more of the activities provided for in Article 2(1) with regards to refrigeration units of refrigerated trucks and trailers meets the requirements of Articles 7 and 8 and partially covers the minimum skills of a particular category as set out in Annex I, certification bodies may issue a certificate for the corresponding category provided that the applicant passes a supplementary examination of the skills and knowledge not covered by the existing certification by an evaluation body referred to in Article 8.
