Element | Performance criteria |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Eviscerate carcase | 1.1 Perform post-harvesting inspection to identify any abnormality and disease 1.2 Eviscerate carcases hygienically to company and regulatory requirements 1.3 Consistently follow a set routine for evisceration 1.4 Identify abnormal conditions and conditions that exclude carcases 1.5 Maintain hygiene between carcases |
2. Inspect carcase | 2.1 Perform post-evisceration inspection for contamination 2.2 Identify diseases and conditions that exclude carcases 2.3 Comply with trimming requirements |
3. Tag animal and complete documentation | 3.1 Accurately complete tagging requirements, where applicable to the species and regulatory requirement 3.2 Identify property by name and/or property identification code (PIC) 3.3 Identify species for the purposes of completing tags |
The candidate must partially or fully eviscerate a game animal carcase in the field.
The candidate must:
demonstrate competent evisceration of carcases without guidance or supervision
recognise diseases and abnormal conditions
eviscerate carcases hygienically and avoid contamination
consistently follow a set routine for evisceration
handle knives safely and hygienically
identify species
read and interpret required documentation
apply numeracy skills relevant to completion of documentation
develop practical solutions to workplace problems
adapt to new situations
manage time and priorities
The candidate must demonstrate a factual, technical, procedural and theoretical knowledge of:
types and causes of contamination
trimming requirements
relevant State Regulations
relevant sections of the Australian Standard
rejection and disposal processes
hygiene and sanitation requirements
company and regulatory requirements
causes of contamination and cross contamination
time requirements for evisceration
workplace health and safety hazards associated with the field during evisceration of wild game carcases
corporate requirements for tagging procedures
state wildlife/conservation authority requirements for tagging
property/location identification protocols
This competency must be demonstrated under actual work conditions while eviscerating, inspecting and tagging wild game carcase in the field.
As a minimum the following three forms of assessment must be used:
quiz of underpinning knowledge
workplace demonstration (face to face or video)
workplace referee or third-party (field depot or wild game processing premises) report of performance over time
Assessors must satisfy the current standards for RTOs.
