Ensure your training and licences are up-to-date and verified by experts!

To assist in your work health and safety requirements, employers MUST ensure their employees or contractors not only have the relevant training competencies or licences to commence work, they must also ensure they are competent and have the most up-to-date information to carry out their duties.

The easiest way for this to be proven is to have a subject matter expert or trainer/assessor put their skills and knowledge to the test via a verification of competency process!

What is a VOC?

A VOC, or "Verification of competency" is a proven method to ensure a worker not only has the initial training, competency or licensing required for a task, they also are current and confident to carry out their duties in the safest and most productive way.

Many workers gain qualifications, competencies and/or licences, however do not update, up-skill or even use these skills for many years after first obtaining them, creating a safety concern for themselves and others.

To overcome this issue, the simple process of VOC's can be implemented

 

What is the VOC process?

At platinum safety and training, we make the VOC process simple and fast, to not only ensure your workplace is a safer one, but to get your workers assessed quickly, so they can confidently continue their duties with minimal down-time.
