Verification of Competency (VoC)
Presented by Terry Swanton and Amelia Simony, FEFO Consulting
What’s covered?
On average, plant & equipment account for 71% of mechanisms related to worker fatalities². A Verification of Competency or VOC is a method of assessment which typically ensures that workers operating plant, equipment and other tools on work sites remain competent to do so – to keep themselves, others safe and solvent.
This webinar provides a risk-based approach to establish a VOC program that not only meets legal requirements, but also enables effective risk controls and a high-performance culture.

- List options for taking a risk-based approach for establishing VoC safe systems of work
