Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standards defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:
perform pit lane and service area operations on a competition vehicle at two different motor sport events, including at one sanctioned motor sport event.
Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:
work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to performing pit lane and service area operations, including procedures for:
selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE)
identifying acceptable tolerance levels for noise, heat and fumes
following pit lane and service area safety procedures
environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of fluids and contaminants released during pit lane and service area operations
key requirements of controlling body rules, category rules and supplementary regulations relating to above motor sport event
procedures for pit lane and service area operations, including:
layout at an event
preparation processes
pit stop and service area sequence and conduct
pit lane and service area signals and communication techniques
emergency repair methods and procedures
procedures for reporting equipment faults and component defects
procedures for completing event records.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the pit lane and service area operations they have performed at motor sport events, e.g. work order.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
two different motor sport events, including one sanctioned motor sport event
controlling body rules, category rules and supplementary regulations for the motor sport event
personal and motor sport team safety procedures and requirements, including PPE
motor sport team procedures and instructions
one competition vehicle
tools, equipment and service materials appropriate for performing pit lane and service area operations on competition vehicles.
