Civil Safety is proud to be one of a select group of BHP-approved providers in Western Australia authorised to deliver Verification of Competency (VOC) assessments on behalf of BHP WAIO.
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.
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.
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
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.
Perth: Assessments available Daily (141 Welshpool Rd, Welshpool)
Bunbury: Assessments available Weekly (14 Halifax Drive, Davenport)
Kalgoorlie: Assessments available Weekly (7 Close Way, West Kalgoorlie)
On-Site Delivery: Our qualified assessors can travel to your site to conduct machine-specific VOCs, ensuring minimal disruption to your operations
Each VOC assessment typically runs for 3-4 hours, depending on the equipment and assessment requirements.
We can deliver a wide range of equipment and machinery VOCs at our Perth (Welshpool), Bunbury or Kalgoorlie facilities, and on-site.
Pre-Assessment: Participants provide evidence of prior training or competency. We require a copy of your high-risk licence or Statement of Attainment (SOA).
Assessment: Theory and Practical - During your assessment, our assessor will observe your performance and evaluate your ability to carry out key tasks safely and to the required competency standards.
