Course Details

Australian health and safety legislation required employers to verify that their employees possess the necessary skills and qualifications for safe operation, rather than assuming competence. Pinnacle Safety and Training’s Verification of Competency (VOC) assessment is designed to confirm that an operator’s skills align with the machinery and tasks they will be performing in what workplace. This assessment is commonly utilised for pre-employment checks and to meet project-specific requirements.

Our VOC assessments are conducted in accordance with Nationally Recognised Units of Competency, relevant Codes of Practice, Standards, Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (OEM) guidelines, WHS legislation, and your company’s procedures. These evaluations ensure that operators meet both industry and site-specific standards.

About the online program: “Honestly, it quickly became very apparent that Pinnacle Safety and Training had been implementing online learning surrounding WHS at an early stage; the teachers and online support were very supportive, but most importantly - the learning material was current and very clear to understand. I would clearly recommend this course to anyone that wanted to gain an understanding surrounding current WHS legislation.”
