Definition A documented, personal identification authorizing the named person to drive designated classifications of vehicle on stated on-road or offroad locations. Depending on the vehicle and the area in which it is operated, licenses may, where not issued by a public authority, be issued by or an approved BP authority (e.g., refinery, site, or airport authority) Any vehicle less than three and one-half tons, excluding a mobile plant Any medical condition that may interfere, temporarily or permanently, with the individual's ability to control the vehicle Any specialized motorized equipment or vehicle used exclusively within the confines of a controlled site, or vehicle used for lifting, material handling, construction, drilling, and excavation work. This excludes standard light vehicles used within a controlled site. This is not applicable to fixed cranes Where BP plc. and/or a wholly owned subsidiary, joint venture, or other business entity directly working for BP plc. is in a position to exercise executive authority (i.e., capable of mandating operations rules and regulations, or is in a position of significant influence over them) in the running of an operation Any heavy vehicle driver, bus driver, chauffeur, and/or any light vehicle driver who drives more than 10,000 miles per year on business (or pro-rata mileage for any part of a year) and is thereby regarded as having driving as a core competency as part of their job. A mobile plant operator who as part of their job drives for more than 15 percent of working hours (or pro-rata time for any part of the year) is deemed to be a professional driver. The GoM has a very small number of professional drivers. The list of professional drivers is retained in Virtual Training Assistant (VTA) A rental vehicle is a vehicle that is not owned by BP, which is rented or hired for a specific period of time. This includes short-term and long-term leases for light vehicles. Leased heavy vehicles are defined as heavy vehicles Every direct employee of BP and its subsidiaries and joint ventures (>50% ownership) and contractor companies that engage in direct work on BP premises on behalf of BP, or to transport our people, materials, intermediates, and products All paid hours on BP business, inclusive of work breaks
