TS 13220

TS 13220 is a professional standard for the occupation of traffic advisor. It defines the profession, places it in a classification framework, and addresses the characteristics expected from the role together with the measurement and assessment of those characteristics. In practical terms, it treats traffic advising as a regulated administrative support occupation closely connected to vehicle registration and traffic-related procedures.

Where the occupation fits in practice

In general technical context, a traffic advisor is someone familiar with vehicle registration workflows, application documents, procedural checks, and the administrative steps involved in formal registrations. The role is associated with traffic regulations and registration procedures, where accuracy in paperwork, legibility of submitted forms, and correct handling of official documentation are important. The occupation sits at the intersection of administration, regulatory awareness, and document management.

What this standard is designed to organise

The standard focuses on the competencies a traffic advisor should possess and on how those competencies are measured and assessed. That means it is concerned not only with naming the occupation, but also with defining its expected profile in a way that can be evaluated consistently. This kind of structure is useful in occupational standards because it separates the role definition from informal expectations and gives a clearer basis for assessment.
