Earthmoving & Mobile Plant VOC in Perth & Western Australia
An earthmoving or mobile plant Verification of Competency (VOC) confirms that an operator can safely and competently operate the machine to the required standard. STES assesses excavators, front end loaders, skid steers, graders, rollers, water trucks, articulated haul trucks and integrated tool carriers for Perth and Western Australian sites.
Earthmoving plant does not require a High Risk Work licence, but most WA resource, construction and civil sites require a VOC before an operator can work. These assessments are typically conducted onsite, on the machine the operator uses, anywhere across Western Australia.
