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. |

Fall protection: | includes: a full body rescue harness connected to a fall line and working platform edge protection while the scaffold is erected static lines include: static lines that can sometimes be used to form part of a travel restraint system that are horizontal lines, generally constructed from steel wire rope, to which lanyards are usually connected static lines may be used: as part of a travel restraint system where access is required close to an unprotected edge, or on a sloping or slippery surface. |
Cantilevered hoist includes: | that with a working load limit not exceeding 500kg which only moves materials and is erected subsequent to the scaffold. |
