The Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) is reviewing the National Occupational Standards (NOS) for Vehicle Parts Operations, and stakeholders from the vehicle recycling sector are invited to participate, to ensure ‘green’ or ‘graded’ parts are taken into account.
NOS describe what an individual in a particular role needs to understand and be able to do, in order to be competent at their job.
It is important that anyone involved in the handling and supply of parts to both the repair sector and the consumer understands the grading system used for ‘green’ parts, when they can be used as a viable alternative to new and how to ensure the customer is able to make an informed choice.
Meetings are coming up in September:
- England – 14 Sep, 2 pm in Hertford
- Scotland – 5 Sep, 2 pm, on Teams
- N Ireland – 8 Sep, 2 pm, on Teams
- Wales – 12 Sep, 2 pm, on Teams
Alternatively, you can get involved by contacting the IMI directly to arrange a 1-2-1 call or leave feedback electronically.
To get involved, please contact Caroline Harris at the IMI carolineh@theimi.org.uk
