Elevated Work Platform (EWP) VOC in Perth & Western Australia
An Elevated Work Platform (EWP) Verification of Competency (VOC) confirms that a worker can safely and competently operate the platform to the required standard. It covers boom lifts, scissor lifts and other elevating work platforms used on Perth and Western Australian sites.
For EWPs under 11 metres, a Yellow Card or VOC is often accepted in place of a High Risk Work licence, while boom-type EWPs of 11 metres and over require a current HRW licence. STES assesses at our Bibra Lake facility in Perth or onsite across WA.

Frequently asked questions: Elevated work platforms VOC
Do I need a licence for an EWP VOC?
It depends on the machine. A boom-type EWP with a boom length of 11 metres or more requires a current High Risk Work (HRW) licence before a VOC. For smaller EWPs and scissor lifts, a VOC or Yellow Card is commonly used to demonstrate competency.
Do you assess scissor lifts as well as boom lifts?
Yes. We conduct VOC assessments across scissor lifts, boom lifts and other elevated work platforms, at our Perth facility or onsite anywhere in Western Australia.
Can you come to our Perth or WA site?
Yes. We travel to workplaces across Perth and regional Western Australia so operators are assessed on the actual EWP they use in their working environment.
