Striving for the very best for our members is what Unite is proud to do.

The Petroleum Driver’s Passport (PDP), fought for by you and your union

to ensure the very highest standards for road tanker drivers in the UK

downstream oil distribution sector is here.

This passport was achieved as part of the settlement agreed at ACAS between Unite and the major

distributors in 2012 which averted an industry wide strike. I am very proud of the stand we took. Pushed

to the brink in our efforts to fix the broken operation of an industry that was becoming dangerously

fragmented and unstable our members said “Enough is Enough”.

The dispute was about stabilising the distribution of a commodity that is essential to the smooth running

of the country. By securing the backing of government for the creation of the new passport scheme,

we’ve travelled some way down the road to achieving this.

Created by the Downstream Oil Industry Distribution Forum (DODF) – a partnership of employers,

industry bodies and trade unions, the scheme sets a benchmark in competency against which all road

tanker drivers involved in the loading, transporting and offloading petroleum fuel products in the UK

are measured. It is revolutionary – it is what a fighting back union does.

Delivering the fuel that keeps our houses warm, our cars on the road and aircraft flying is dangerous

work. Fuel is a highly volatile commodity. Following the Buncefield oil storage explosion in 2005,

investigators made a number of safety recommendations for contractors involved in the loading and

offloading of fuel products.

Our members believed that a robust safety passport scheme would ensure that drivers delivering to UK

forecourts are trained to the same high standards the Buncefield team recommended eight years after

the disaster – it has now been achieved.

Unite urges the industry and government to remain vigilant to the serious issues that gave rise to the

dispute back in 2012. The distribution of fuel and the safety of our communities and our road tanker

drivers are too important to the nation to leave to pure market forces. The struggle for stability and

security continues.

This document provides all the information on the new PDP scheme you need. Please keep it somewhere

safe so that you can refer back to it as necessary.

The Petroleum Driver Passport (PDP) is an industry initiative backed by government to ensure all tanker

drivers in the UK are trained and assessed to a consistent, high standard. It has been created by the

Downstream Oil Industry Distribution Forum (DODF) – a partnership of employers, industry bodies and

trade unions. The DODF has appointed the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA), who already manage

the ADR scheme, to manage the PDP.

The PDP Scheme sets a benchmark in competency against which all road tanker drivers loading,

transporting and offloading petroleum fuel products in road tankers in the UK are measured.

Competency is assessed using both classroom and practical techniques, and the passport is renewed

on a five year cycle, but also has an annual refresher requirement.

For terminal operators, this provides a level of confidence that tanker drivers holding a valid PDP who enter

the terminal boundary to load product have achieved and demonstrated a minimum level of competency.

The PDP scheme applies to drivers who load, transport and off-load the following products:

• UN 1202 – Gas oil or diesel fuel or heating oil, light

• UN 1203 – Gasoline or petrol or motor spirit

• UN 1223 – Kerosene

• UN 1863 – Fuel, aviation, turbine engines

The PDP scheme is an industry created, owned and managed code of practice. This is similar to the

existing road tanker Safe Loading Pass Scheme, which acts as an equivalent industry code of practice

for petroleum road tankers.

Independent legal advice has confirmed the lawfulness of terminal operators requiring a valid PDP for

any driver of a UK registered vehicle engaged in national transport before allowing loading activities

to commence.

The Petroleum Fuel Tanker Driver – Industry Training Standard provides a full definition of the competency

requirements for the scheme, and details of how the PDP scheme is administered are included in the

Scheme Manual. Both of these publications can be used as a reference for further information, and are

available on the website, www.pdpassport.com

1. What is the Petroleum Driver Passport

The purpose of this guide is to provide a reference to help you understand the purpose and scope of the

PDP scheme, and your role in it. Specifically:

• What do you need to do and when?

• Where can you go to get help?

• Where can you go to get further information?

2. What is the Purpose of this Guide?

10

3.3 How will the scheme be enforced?

From January 2015, the checks carried out as part of a periodic terminal induction prior to issuing a

loading card, will ensure that the driver is in possession of a valid PDP.

From January 2015, any checks carried out by the terminal as part of their existing inspection regime,

will also include a verification of a valid PDP. For example, any inspection regime that verifies valid

Dangerous Goods Driver Training Card (commonly known as an ADR card) should also check for a valid

PDP. Drivers not in possession of a valid PDP will be unable to load at a terminal.

Where an automated system is in place to verify current ADR status, the terminal may wish to extend

this to include the PDP.

In addition to the terminal operators, there are other authorities/interested parties who may request

the PDP, including:

• Potential for recording PDP driver number on delivery paperwork

• All customers

• HSE and Environment Agency as part of inspections and investigations

• VOSA and Police

3.4 What do I need to do now?

From January 2014, drivers should be coming forward to gain their PDP by undertaking written and

practical assessments through approved SQA centres.

Successful completion of the written assessment and the practical assessment results in the issue

of the Petroleum Driver Passport.

3.5 What do I need to do in the future?

It is intended that the PDP forms a key element to ensure high levels of competency in the petroleum

tanker driver sector.

The driver renewal period for the PDP is aligned with the existing ADR scheme – therefore within five

years, all drivers will have had to renew their PDP at the same time as their ADR.

3.1 When does the scheme become active?

The PDP Scheme has a phased introduction which starts in September 2013, when training providers

will be welcome to come forward for training provider (including instructor and assessor) and course

approval by SQA.

In January 2014, the scheme will be opened to tanker drivers to allow them to take the necessary steps

to qualify for a PDP. Drivers have a twelve month period from January 2014 in which to which to

undertake the assessment to receive the passport.

During 2014 terminal operators should recognise the PDP, but it should only be enforced from January

2015. Terminal procedures between 1 January 2015 and 1 March 2015 should take account of the fact

that some drivers will have completed the necessary training and assessment late in 2014 and will be

waiting to receive their valid passports from SQA.

3.2 How do I get my Petroleum Driver Passport?

All drivers will have to get their PDP during 2014. Drivers whose ADR is up for renewal, or who require

their first ADR during 2014, will undergo written and practical assessment to achieve their full PDP.

Those drivers whose ADR is not due for renewal during 2014 will work towards an interim PDP.

Interim and full PDP have equal status. The interim model allows drivers to achieve their PDP if their ADR

renewal is more than 12 months away. The interim passport is then valid until their ADR renewal, when

the driver will undergo full PDP training and assessment and their PDP renewal will then align with the

ADR renewal cycle.

For the interim PDP, drivers will be given classroom training prior to taking a written assessment,

set by SQA, covering key content of the Industry Training Standard.

To achieve their full PDP, drivers will undertake PDP training and a full written assessment,

set by SQA, alongside their five-yearly ADR renewal training and assessment.

For both interim and full PDP, drivers will also undertake a practical assessment in the industry

sub-sector most relevant to their workload with a qualified and approved PDP assessor. The practical

assessment will cover loading, driving and offloading within one of the five sub-sectors covered by

the PDP Scheme: Retail, Aviation, Commercial, Home Heat and Marine.

Sub-sector knowledge and practical requirements are built into the Training Standard and designed to

assist driver training when new to a sub sector. Industry sub-sector knowledge is not part of the full or

interim PDP written assessment, but drivers will be assessed on their knowledge of the rules of the

PDP scheme itself.

In order to maintain the validity of their PDP, drivers will be required to undertake an annual practical

assessment and one day of annual classroom refreshment training, completion of which will be recorded.

The Industry Training Standard takes account of all necessary standards, such as driving licence andADR Dangerous Goods Driver Training Qualifications, and reflects and takes account of the Europeanregulation on the Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC).

Who is it for?

This Industry Training Standard has been designed to meet the needs of all parts of the sector, includinglarge major logistics operations, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and micro businesses. It isfor all drivers; all employing companies (who can be both employers and training providers); all potentialthird party training providers; the DODF, as owner and reviewer of the standard; and all associatedstakeholders.

The training matrix below shows which Learning Outcomes drivers need to take depending on thecircumstances listed. It must be noted that the matrix should be used only as a guideline and if anysignificant changes occur to any part of the terminal, road tanker, delivery area or legislation, refreshertraining may be required. Where the vehicle type and any associated equipment has changed, this willrequire further specific training not covered by this standard. The training matrix specifies minimumrequirements and company requirements may be higher.

* Drivers should undergo terminal specific induction only when they are new to a terminal, they should already be trainedto meet the Petroleum Fuel Tanker Driver: Industry Training Standard.

** Annual refresher training not immediately required as drivers should already have the required knowledge, but immediatepractical assessment may be necessary in these instances

# Practical assessment:

• Drivers should undertake a practical assessment in the industry sub-sector most relevant to their workload on an annualbasis and for the five-yearly formal assessment

• When a driver takes on new industry sub-sector deliveries, a practical assessment should be delivered specific to thatsub-sector

As part of the ACAS Agreement in April 2012, the Unite Union and the major haulage companies agreedthat they are both committed to continuous improvement in the area of Health and Safety training andhave a mutual aim to ensure that the current health and safety best practices of the employers areapplicable across the whole industry.

Therefore, the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) asked Cogent and Skills for LogisticsSector Skills Councils (SSCs) to facilitate the reconstitution of the UK Downstream Oil Distribution Forum(DODF). The DODF’s remit is to address these shared concerns with other appropriate bodies andGovernment departments, in order to establish an Industry Training Standard for health, safety and drivertraining, with appropriate means of accreditation. The Industry Training Standard covers all driversdelivering refined petroleum products in road tankers in all categories of vehicle.

Under the agreed DODF Terms of Reference, the DODF is responsible for:

• Reviewing current practices in relation to the implementation of health and safety and training tandards across the industry.

• Identifying instances of good and bad practice with the aim of developing an industry standardwhich could be incorporated into a new industry code of practice.

• Facilitating the sharing of best practice across the industry.• Developing a strategy to address skills gaps relating to health, safety and training issues.

The DODF will continue as a standing body to ensure that the initial work is implemented and to providean on-going overview of health and safety issues for the industry. A Scheme Manager will be assigned toundertake associated accreditation processes against the Industry Training Standard. The DODF alsoprovides oversight of the Scheme Manager through a Management Group.

This document describes the content of the Industry Training Standard, approved by the DODF, and themechanism by which the Scheme runs is described in the Petroleum Driver Passport Scheme Manualof Practice.

Introduction

The content of this document has been approved by members of the DODF, who are listed in the DODFTerms of Reference.

The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) also attend DODF to provide technical and other advice and supportas necessary to DODF and its members. HSE have no role or responsibilities in relation to the industry-ledPDP Scheme, including its direction, management or delivery.

What is it about?This document sets out the content of the Industry Training Standard against which drivers, deliveringrefined petroleum products in road tankers (as defined by ADR), will need to demonstrate competence.The primary focus of the Petroleum Driver Passport is finished petroleum products, delivered to endcustomers. Therefore, the following UN numbers, identifying hazardous substances and articles in theframework of international transport, apply:

• UN 1202 – Gas oil or diesel fuel or heating oil, light• UN 1203 – Gasoline or petrol or motor spirit• UN 1223 – Kerosene• UN 1863 – Fuel, aviation, turbine engine

In addition to these UN numbers, UN 1268 and UN 3475 may apply, depending on individualcircumstances.

Learning outcomes & Assessment CriteriaProviders wishing to be approved to deliver any of the PDP training or assessment must gain approvalby the Scheme Manager, as detailed in the Petroleum Driver Passport Scheme Manual of Practice.

Outlined below are the assessment criteria set out as a series of points against each learning outcomeof the Industry Training Standard.

For ‘LO5 Be able to deliver petroleum products by road tanker – industry sub-sector requirements’:this learning outcome provides the option to undertake training and assessment against whicheverof the five sub-sector areas is appropriate to individual needs.

Preliminary assessment

Before this training takes place, the provider must establish that the driver has the necessary standards,such as driving licence and ADR driver training certificate. They should also check driver competency byconducting a driver assessment.

Providers must also be aware of the requirements of the Driver Certificate of Professional Competence(Driver CPC), which applies to professional bus, coach and lorry drivers. It has been introduced acrossEurope with the aim of improving road safety and helping to maintain high standards of driving. If adriver does not have a valid Driver CPC qualification card after the 10 September 2014 deadline(for goods vehicles), it becomes unlawful to drive a commercial vehicle over 3.5 tonnes gross vehicleweight (GVW) professionally.

The Industry Training Standard is comprised of five learning outcomes.

The learner will:

1. Be able to prepare to deliver petroleum products by road tanker.2. Be able to load petroleum products into road tankers.3. Be able to drive petroleum product road tankers.4. Be able to offload petroleum products.5. Be able to deliver petroleum products by road tanker – industry sub-sector requirements.

Training and AssessmentTraining and assessment should be aligned with the driver’s five-yearly ADR renewal.

To meet the requirements of the Industry Training Standard, there will be appropriate training andinstruction to cover each of the Learning Outcomes, before a formal assessment is undertaken(in line with their ADR renewal).

This assessment will include a written (multiple-choice) examination and an accompanied practicalassessment on loading, driving and offloading. Upon successful completion, the Petroleum DriverPassport (PDP) can be issued with a validation of five years. Formal assessment will subsequentlytake place on a five-year cycle.

Once the driver has successfully passed the formal assessment, they will subsequently be required toundertake an annual practical assessment and one day of annual refreshment training, completion ofwhich will be recorded.

The purpose of assessment is to ensure that effective learning has taken place and that competencehas been demonstrated.

The assessment process will:

• Be fair and clear for those undertaking it.• Explain clearly the standards for satisfactory completion.• Be consistent and transparent in its marking.• Be open to audit by an appointed body.• Include both assessments of knowledge and workplace performance.

ReviewThe Industry Training Standard should be subject to an annual review for the first three years and,thereafter, the Management Group will manage the review of the Industry Training Standard on aperiodic basis (for example where legislation changes or good practice is further developed), witha minimum review every two years.
