The safe work instruction from the Tyre Changing and Inflation Safety & Competency Pack, on its own: what the worker does, step by step, the hazards and controls, and when to stop.
A safe work instruction tells the worker how to do the work safely at your site: the purpose and scope, who may do the work, the equipment, the hazards and their controls (most effective first), PPE, the steps with clear stop points, emergencies, consultation and approval, and a signed acknowledgement. A short setup note lists what to adapt and every placeholder.
It is the same document as in the Tyre Changing and Inflation Safety & Competency Pack, word for word. The Tyre Changing and Inflation VOC Assessment Template checks a worker can do the work in it, and the Tyre Changing and Inflation Field Verification Checklist checks on site that the controls it relies on are working. Both are sold on their own too. The Tyre Changing and Inflation Safety & Competency Pack contains all of them, with the pre-use checklist and a setup guide.
A VOC supports workplace competency verification. It does not replace a high risk work licence where one is required. Work on large, multi-piece or split rims needs specific training and equipment. A VOC does not replace that training or the manufacturer's instructions.
Delivered as one ZIP download. The files below are editable, and every Word document also comes as a PDF. Each download also includes Read Me First, a Setup Note, a Product Overview, the Permitted Use Terms and Version Information (PDF).
| File | Format | What it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Tyre Changing and Inflation Safe Work Instruction | Word (.docx) | Step-by-step instruction for the worker: deflating fully before removing a wheel, inspecting the rim and tyre, using the tyre changer, inflating in a cage or restraint with a remote inflation line, staying out of the trajectory zone, and stopping for damaged or multi-piece rims. |
The safe work instruction is where the documents start: the VOC checks a worker can do the work in it, the pre-use checklist covers each job, and the field verification checks the controls it relies on. The Tyre Changing and Inflation Safety & Competency Pack contains all four.
Tells the operator what to do
The steps, hazards and controls for the task, written for the person doing it.
Included
Checks they can do it
Verifies each operator against that same instruction, on your equipment, with evidence and a clear outcome.
In the pack
Checks the equipment is fit to use
Before each use, with clear do-not-use criteria and what to do with a fault.
In the pack
Checks the controls are working on site
A supervisor checks on the floor that the controls the instruction relies on are in place and effective.
In the pack
What supervisors find in the field feeds back into the instruction and the VOC.

Before you use them
Yes, word for word. It is the safe work instruction from the Tyre Changing and Inflation Safety & Competency Pack, sold on its own with a short setup note.
If you need more than this one document, yes. The Tyre Changing and Inflation Safety & Competency Pack contains this document, the VOC assessment, the pre-use checklist and the field verification checklist, written to work together, with a setup guide. The pre-use checklist and the setup guide are only in the pack.
No. A VOC supports workplace competency verification. It does not replace a high risk work licence where one is required. Work on large, multi-piece or split rims needs specific training and equipment. A VOC does not replace that training or the manufacturer's instructions.
No. Where the manufacturer's instructions differ, follow the manufacturer and change the document to match.
No licence is needed, but workers must be trained and competent, and work on large, multi-piece or split rims needs specific training and equipment. A VOC records that the worker can use your equipment safely.
A tyre or rim can fail violently during inflation, especially a multi-piece or split rim. An inflation cage or other restraint, with a clip-on chuck and remote inflation line so the worker can stand clear, controls that risk. The pre-use checklist checks the cage, line, gauge and chuck before use.
Yes. Every document is supplied in Word (.docx) or Excel (.xlsx), so you can add your logo, change the wording and adapt it to your workplace. The copyright notice must stay.
Yes. The documents must be adapted to your equipment, the manufacturer's instructions, your site and your local controls before they are used. The setup note in the download lists what to change.
No document can. Your duties are met by managing the risks in your actual workplace. Using them does not by itself make a workplace compliant with WHS or OHS laws. They support the work of managing the risk; they are not legal advice.
Yes. Every price in the store includes GST, so $49.00 is the total, including $4.45 GST. Your receipt is a tax invoice showing the GST.
As a ZIP download. Card purchases can be downloaded straight away from the confirmation page and by a link we email you. Download links expire after 14 days for security; you can request a new one at any time.
Yes. Use Request an Invoice to order through your normal procurement process, with a purchase order number and quantities if you need them. The files are released once payment is confirmed.
Yes, across your own organisation. The documents are licensed for internal use by the purchasing organisation. A consultant, labour hire business or training provider supplying them to clients needs separate written permission.
They are written for Australian workplaces and refer to Australian WHS and OHS laws and licences. A business elsewhere should replace those references with its own country's requirements. Everything is editable for that.
Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law are not affected. See the Refund Policy for how we handle a document that is faulty, not as described, or not what you ordered.
Licence and legal information here is general. It may not be correct in your jurisdiction: please check with your local WHS or OHS regulator.

Start with a toolbox talk to brief the crew on the hazard, then use the safe work instruction, the VOC and the field verification checklist to set and check the controls.
For workers who use or work near machines: how moving parts injure, how guards work, and why a guard is never removed or bypassed.
For every worker who wears PPE: where it sits in the hierarchy of control, and how to choose, fit, wear, look after and replace it so it actually protects.
Tyre and rim explosion control is a common critical control. To manage it as one, with performance standards and field verification across the business, see the Critical Control Management series.
Safe work instruction, VOC assessment, pre-use checklist and a supervisor field verification checklist, written to work together.
Verify workers: knowledge questions with a marking guide, a practical observation checklist, fail criteria and sign-off.
The supervisor's field verification checklist from the pack, on its own: checks on site that the controls for the work are in place and working.
