VoC is a process to confirm that an operator has the skills and knowledge to safely perform tasks with specific mobile plant equipment.

A VoC assessment is for operators who hold existing licences or certificates but need to verify their competency to meet current employer or legislative requirements.

Renewal timelines vary by employer and regulatory bodies, but generally, it’s required when licences expire, after a significant break in operation or when changing roles or equipment.

No. A VoC verifies skills for licenced or previously licenced operators but does not replace the requirement for obtaining formal licences.

VoCs cover a wide range of equipment including forklifts, excavators, loaders, elevated work platforms, dogging and rigging and others.
