Implement and monitor environmental regulations and best practice in the body repair industry

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


Work involves normal activities of a body repair shop, including removal and repair of metal and plastic panels and body components, welding, preparation of panels for painting and painting with a range of vehicle paints.

Work requires individuals to demonstrate discretion, judgement and problem-solving skills in undertaking environmentally sound work practices.

Competence may be demonstrated in workplaces involved in the repair of vehicle bodies, through repair, replacement or painting of body panels which may be metal or plastic.

This unit covers the competence to undertake repair of vehicle bodies in a manner that ensures protection of the environment.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Employability Skills

This unit contains employability skills.



Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment.

Implement environmental regulations and best practice.

Identify materials used in the body repair process and assess their environmental impact.

Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection processes to:

minimise risk of injury to self and others

prevent damage and wastage of goods, equipment and products

maintain production output and product quality.

Conduct operator maintenance on spray booth and spray equipment to ensure environmental efficiency.

Work effectively with others.

Use of spill kit.

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace context and environment.

Context of, and specific resources for assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with process equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.

Access to a body repair workshop with damaged vehicles, metal and plastic panel repair equipment and fillers, spray booths, various spray guns, paint mixing equipment, recycling bins, dust extraction equipment, vacuum cleaners/brooms, and liquid, sludge and solid wastes.

Access to a least two of the paint types listed:

water based acrylic, two pack, or thinners/reducers.

Method of assessment

Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace contexts.

Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge.

Assessment should be conducted over time and should be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competence.

Competence in this unit may be assessed in conjunction with other functional units which together form part of the holistic work role.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Required skills

collect, organise and understand information related to environmental procedures from legislation, regulations and workshop practices in a body repair workshop

communicate ideas and information to enable work undertaken is in accordance with environmental best practice, coordination of work with worksite supervisor, other workers and customers, and the reporting of work outcomes and problems

plan and organise activities, including preparation of equipment and materials and selection of worksite to avoid environmental contamination, backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to minimise wastage, optimise workflow and productivity

use mathematical ideas and techniques to complete measurements and estimate material requirements required for the work

use planning, checking and inspection techniques to avoid environmental contamination and wastage

use workplace technology related to environmental protection equipment

Required knowledge

A working knowledge of:

aspects of environmental legislation and its implications to work being undertaken

characteristics and potential environmental impact of products used in the body repair process

philosophy of prevention, reduce, reuse, recycle

procedures for reporting machinery faults and material defects

action to be taken in case of significant environmental threat in the workshop

reporting procedures for significant environmental damage occurring in the workshop

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Automotive body repair workshop

Automotive body repair workshop includes:

panel removal, repair and replacement procedures

component removal procedures

panel surface cleaning and paint application.

OH&S

OH&S requirements include material safety data sheets, hazardous substances and dangerous goods code and safe operating procedures.

Legislative requirements

Work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, policies, guidelines, OH&S regulations, manual handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements.

Tooling and equipment

Tooling and equipment are to include spill kits, recycling bins and drums, spray gun washers, bunded or drained wash bays, spray booths, vacuum/air extraction equipment and a waste water management system.

Materials

Materials may include materials data safety sheets.

Personal protective equipment

Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise policies and practices. Face masks are available for rubbing back and painting and ear muffs for protection against noise generated from machinery.

Information and procedures

Information and procedures may include:

environmental legislation, regulations, Australian standards and advice

worksite environmental policy

workplace procedures relating to use of tooling and equipment

work instructions, including job sheets

workplace procedures relating to reporting and communication of environmental issues

manufacturer/component supplier specifications and operational procedures.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
