Documents that work together for tyre changing and inflation: what the worker does, a check they can do it, a pre-use check every time, and a supervisor check that the controls are in place.
Most paperwork for this work is written separately and never quite lines up. These documents are written to work together. The safe work instruction tells the worker what to do. The VOC assessment checks they can do it. The pre-use checklist confirms the equipment is fit to use. The supervisor field verification checklist checks, on the job, that the controls the instruction relies on are actually in place.
A short setup guide tells you what to adapt before you use them. Everything is in editable Word or Excel.
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.

Before you use them
A VOC needs something to assess against. The pack includes the safe work instruction the VOC checks, plus the pre-use checklist and the supervisor field verification checklist, all written to the same work, so what you instruct, what you assess and what you check in the field line up.
Yes. The Tyre Changing and Inflation VOC assessment tool, knowledge questions, marking guide and Excel VOC register are all in the pack, so there is no need to buy the VOC separately.
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.
Yes. The VOC assessment, the safe work instruction and the supervisor field verification checklist are each sold on their own. The pack contains all of them, plus the pre-use checklist and the setup guide, which are only in the pack.
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 guide in the pack 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 $199.00 is the total, including $18.09 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.
Verify workers: knowledge questions with a marking guide, a practical observation checklist, fail criteria and sign-off.
The safe work instruction from the pack, on its own: the steps, hazards and controls, stop points, emergencies and sign-off, in editable Word.
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.
