Our specialised VOC assessments are designed for contractors and workers mobilising to BHP sites, ensuring they meet BHP’s stringent safety and operational standards before commencing work.

What is a Verification of Competency (VOC)?

A Verification of Competency (VOC) is an assessment process used to confirm that an individual has the necessary skills and knowledge to safely operate specific machinery or perform high-risk tasks.

Who Needs a BHP WAIO VOC?

These assessments are essential for:

  • Contractors and employees mobilising to BHP’s Western Australia mine sites

  • Operators of specific machinery and equipment (e.g. excavators, forklifts, cranes, loaders)

  • Supervisors or site-based personnel needing evidence of current competency

How Much Does a BHP WAIO VOC Cost?

Our VOC’s start from just $295 for one VOC. If you require multiple VOC’s, you are eligible for a discount. Please contact us for more information.
