What is an EWP Verification of Competency?
A verification of competency (VoC) for an elevated work platform (EWP) is a method of assessing an individual’s ability, skills and knowledge to safely operate an EWP. An operator’s training and assessment of competence is verified through a knowledge assessment and a practical demonstration of the ability to safely operate the EWP. The VoC process assists employers to ensure that operators have the necessary ability to perform their job safely and competently. It also provides a way for employers to identify gaps in skills and knowledge, and to provide training to address those gaps.
