Working on Public Roads - Farming

The Working on Public Roads - Farming Safe Operating Procedure (SOP) is tailored to the challenges farms face when vehicles, machinery and stock use public roads.

It covers the hazards (vehicles, the public, permit breaches and uncontrolled stock), worker training, safe vehicle and machine operation on public roads, licensing, moving stock on public roads or a Travelling Stock Reserve (TSR), and stock warning signs.

An employee training and induction register records each worker's induction, training and competency.
