What does EOH mean in NAVY

EOH certified operators typically work with construction machines such as bulldozers, excavators, cranes, loaders, haul trucks, dump trucks, and scrapers. They are responsible for loading and unloading materials from sites and safely maneuvering large pieces of equipment throughout job sites.

The National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA) offers training and testing programs that certify individuals as EOH Operators through its NCCER Heavy Equipment Operations Certification program. Those wishing to pursue this line of work should contact industry schools or employers in their area to find out more information about getting certified.

Generally speaking, applicants must be 18 years or older with a high school diploma or equivalent; possess current OSHA safety certifications; be able to pass a physical exam; have experience operating various types of heavy equipment; demonstrate familiarity with all applicable regulations; display strong problem-solving skills; and meet any other requirements set by the employer or issuing organization.

Having an EOH operator certification demonstrates that the individual has been trained in safe operation procedures for heavy equipment operations. This can be valuable for employers who are looking for reliable employees who can competently handle dangerous machinery without putting personnel at risk of injury or property damage.

Most certifications need to be renewed every three years in order to remain valid. Some organizations may require recertification more frequently than others so it is important to check with your issuer regarding specific renewal requirements in your area.
