ELEMENT

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1.2 Set-up is carried out correctly in minimum time with minimum wastage

1.3 Availability of all job related components is checked

1.4 Collating/inserting system is set up according to job specifications

2. Conduct sample run

2.1 Material to be used for sample is organised correctly

2.2 Collating or inserting system is operated to produce a specified sample according to work health and safety (WHS) requirements, manufacturer’s specifications and enterprise procedures

3. Organise sample inspection and/or testing

3.1.Sample is visually inspected and/or tested, or laboratory testing is organised, according to enterprise procedures

3.2 Results are interpreted to determine adjustment requirements

3.3 Adjustments are carried out according to product specifications

4. Maintain production process

4.1 Hand-collating process is monitored and adjusted to ensure product quality meets the approved sample standard

4.2 Production process is operated in association with fellow workers and according to enterprise procedures and planned daily schedule

4.3 Production is maintained according to WHS requirements, manufacturer’s specifications and enterprise procedures

4.4 Production difficulties are anticipated and preventive action is taken to prevent occurrence by timely intervention

4.5 Process adjustments to eliminate problems are reported according to enterprise procedures

5. Clean work area at end of run

5.1 Collating area is cleaned ready for next run

5.2 Waste is sorted according to enterprise procedures

5.3 Substrate waste is removed from operating area and recycled or disposed of, where required, according to regulatory requirements and enterprise procedures

5.4 Production records or other documentation are accurately completed, where required by enterprise procedures

Evidence of the ability to:

correctly set up and produce hand-collated and inserted product according to job specifications and within production timeframe

find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources

set up and collate TWO different jobs (at least FIVE products, and if possible, one sheet job and one section job) by hand according to manufacturer’s and job specifications, enterprise procedures and listed performance criteria.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

identify important information found on the production control job ticket

list steps to ensure important features of the production control system are followed

determine production records to be kept or written up and the information that should be included

identify ergonomic and work health and safety (WHS) factors for setting up the job to facilitate ease of operation

explain facilities available to assist picking up product by hand

identify precautions for handling NCR paper

identify methods to separate finished sets of product

identify methods of assistance to open sections to be inserted

explain how printed images assure correct sequence of sections

list steps to ensure important features of the production control system are followed

determine areas of the finished product to be inspected

list steps to take if the test sample is incorrect

explain the procedure for processing remaining sheets (overs) at the completion of the job

identify manuals, safety and other documentation relevant to this task, where they are kept, and the information included in them.

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the converting, binding and finishing field of work and include access to special purpose tools, equipment and materials.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
