5 INTRODUCTION AND COURSE DESCRIPTION There are numerous international, national and company specific policies relating to the provision of driving licenses and the use of company vehicles in the workplace, however, there is not a standalone document that fosters consistency across the different parties in the oil and gas industry. OPITO was asked by employers and specialist training providers in the Middle East and Asia Pacific to create a minimum standard designed for anyone in the workforce that is required to drive by their employer. Acceptance of the basic standard may lead to development in the future of specialist driving standards for such areas as desert/off road driving or transportation by heavy goods vehicles. Delegates for this introductory standard are required to have a valid driver s licenses for the location of the training. The aim is to improve a delegate s driving ability and to assess his/her ability to drive safely. In addition to practical aspects, the training establishments will also be addressing the attitude and behaviour component of safe driving because driver attitude has been identified as one of the greatest influences to improve safe driving.

6 SECTION A SAFE DRIVING AT WORK TRAINING The information in this section is for trainers. It provides the requirements for initial training which includes a programme to enable delegates to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills which underpin the tasks to be performed. A.1 Target Group The OPITO Safe Driving at Work Training and Assessment Standard is a minimum standard designed for any person who is required to drive on company business, is employed as a driver (in the plant or on public roads) or is a local hire driver under company responsibility. This training also applies to personnel using a vehicle on behalf of a company. A.2 Delegate Pre-requisites Attendance on this course is open to delegates who have a driver s license which is valid in the location where the training is to be delivered. Revision 2 (9 th December 2016) Page 6 of 26

7 A.3 Physical and Stressful Demands of the Course Safe driving at work training activities contained within this Standard may include physically demanding and potentially stressful elements. All personnel who participate in such activities must be physically and mentally capable of participating fully. OPITO-approved Centres are therefore required, as a minimum, to ensure that prior to participating in practical exercises the delegate or candidate provides written confirmation that they deem themselves physically and mentally capable of undertaking all aspects of the training or assessment. Centres must also make the delegate/candidate aware that they must immediately inform the Centre staff if this capability changes at any time prior to, or during the programme. The training establishments should also ensure that delegates have an appropriate medical screening relevant to the discipline being undertaken. The OPITO-approved Centre shall keep a record of the delegate s/candidate s declaration of fitness in accordance with their document control policy(s) or procedures. This information, along with summary details of the type of physical activities the delegate/candidate will be asked to perform, will be given to delegates/candidates by the OPITO-approved Centre and, if applicable, to their sponsoring company as part of the joining instructions. The responsibility for declaring any current or pre-existing medical conditions that could have adverse effects to the individual s state of health while undertaking the training and/or assessment activities lies with the delegate/candidate and/or company sponsoring the delegate. Where doubt exists regarding the fitness of any delegate/candidate, the OPITO-approved Centre should direct the individual to consult a medical officer familiar with the nature and extent of the training. Note: Practical exercises should be designed and delivered solely to meet this standard, and must not place on the delegates any physical or mental demands other than those required to meet the Standard.

9 A.6 Delegate Performance Assessment There are two parts to this training programme Theoretical and practical training: 1) The theoretical elements can be delivered either by CBT or in a classroom. Delegates of either method will be assessed against Learning outcomes 1-13 using a short written test, open-book test. 2) The practical elements of the training will consist of a series of explanations and demonstrations by training staff followed by delegates practicing and demonstrating their competence during a practical driving session. Learning outcomes 14 and 15 will be assessed through direct observation of the delegate s practical performance. Delegates will drive a prescribed route determined by the assessor in order to demonstrate competence over the range of variables described in Module 3. The assessor may request a three minute commentary drive from each delegate during the assessment as long as they take into account the delegate s language skills. Training instructors must identify any gaps in delegate s learning and make reasonable effort to address the gaps to help delegates meet the learning outcomes Revision 2 (9 th December 2016) Page 9 of 26

10 A.7 Duration and Timing of the Training Programme The optimum total contact time for this training and assessment programme is seven hours and 20mins. Timings may vary due to delegate s ability. Timing should be allocated in the following ways: The contact time for the theory portion of the course is envisaged to be three hours 40 minutes which would include training and assessment. The practical portion of the Safe Driving at Work programme, which has a maximum of four delegates per car, should take up to three hours and include: (a) (b) A 1 hour demonstration of a pre-trip inspection including exterior and interior vehicle checks, seating and starting up followed by a demonstration drive by the instructor. A 40 minute period* for each delegate to enable them to demonstrate competence over the range of variables required and to receive an individual feedback session on his/her performance. Assessors may request a three minute commentary drive from each delegate during the assessment as long the delegate s language skills are taken into consideration. The contact time is based on the maximum number of delegates/candidates undertaking the programme. Where stated, individual module/unit/element timings that are specified within the standard must be adhered to. The contact time must not exceed 8 hours in any one day and the **total programme day must not exceed 10 hours. Practical and theory sessions must contain adequate breaks for delegate welfare. *Contact time includes the following: i. delegate/candidate enrolment and certification process ii. delivery of the theoretical and practical training/assessment programme. **The total programme day includes: contact time, welfare breaks, meal breaks and where applicable, travel between sites.
