3.0 Plant and Equipment Operational Policy - General
- 3.1 Is there a policy of skills assessment of new and existing workers to determine their competency to operate machinery and vehicles in a safe and competent manner?
- 3.2 Are operators, who are under training, adequately supervised and mentored until such times as they are deemed competent to operate relevant plant and machinery?

- 3.4 is there a policy in place that prohibits persons, without adequate seating, from riding on machines or in vehicles unless the activity is deemed to be a "specific work activity"
- 3.5 Has a documented risk assessment and a safe work procedure been developed and implemented for those "specific work activities" that may require a person to operate in an unrestrained manner from a machine or vehicle, in certain operational circumstances? (I.e. Fire fighting from the back of a Ute)
