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 coating materials, cleaning materials, work orders and safety procedures

communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications, coordination of work with site supervisor, other workers and customers, and the reporting of work outcomes and problems

plan and organise activities, including the preparation and layout of the worksite and the obtaining of coating equipment and materials to avoid any back tracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

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

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area and estimate material requirements

use pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate coating problems, avoid reworking and avoid wastage

use the limited workplace technology related to coating, including tools, equipment and measuring devices

Required knowledge

identification of application techniques

characteristics of stains, fillers and bleaches in terms of toxicity, reactivity, flammability, viscosity.

the methods to prevent contamination of surfaces during and after processing

workflow in relation to the application stains, fillers and bleach

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.

Unit context

Workplace health and safety requirements include OHS legislation, building codes, material safety management systems, hazardous substances and dangerous goods code and local safe operating procedures

Work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, relevant health regulations, manual handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements

Stains are to include:

lacquer-based wiping stain and spirit-based and may include: water and oil-based

Fillers are to include:

oil-based

water-based and plastic (one-pot) filler

Bleach is to include:

two-solution bleach and may include oxalic acid bleach

Surfaces

Surfaces include solid timber and manufactured board

Tools and equipment may include, but are not limited to:

liquid containers

rubber gloves

face masks

spray booths

spray guns

compressor

air lines

brushes

sanding block

Materials to be applied may include but are not limited to:

stains

fillers

bleaches

water

abrasive papers

cotton rags and hessian

Personal protective equipment

Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulations and enterprise policies and practices

Information and procedures

Workplace procedures relating to the use of tools and equipment

Work instructions, including job sheets, plans, drawings and designs

Workplace procedures relating to reporting and communication

Manufacturer 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.

Observation Checklist

Tasks to be observed according to workplace/college/TAFE policy and procedures, relevant legislation and Codes of Practice Yes No Comments/feedback
Workplace information, including materials application and safety information, material safety data sheets, is used to inform work practices 
Characteristics of the surface and the required surface treatment are identified from work orders or instructions 
Processing and application techniques, time and safety requirements are identified and used for work planning 
OHS requirements, including ventilation requirements and personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work 
Tools, equipment and accessories are identified and checked for safe and effective operation for the staining, filling or bleaching task 
Surfaces are checked for contamination and correct preparation according to workplace procedures and standards 
Products with surface or other faults are identified and faults repaired as appropriate 
Materials required to stain and fill in are identified and prepared for the task 
Trial applications of stains and or fillers are made to check equipment operation, materials consistency, viscosity and specified colour 
Faults and or inconsistencies in colour are identified and workplace procedures for rectification and adjustment are followed 
Materials required for bleaching are identified and labelled to prevent cross-contamination of bulk material during application 
Techniques for application of stain, filler or bleach are identified 
Materials are applied according to job instructions, material manufacturers' specifications and workplace procedures 
Bleached items are appropriately stored for drying 
Finished products are inspected and approved for suitability for further processing 
Products which do not meet quality specifications are restrained, filled, bleached or tagged for further investigation. 
Equipment used is cleaned and inspected for serviceable condition and stored appropriately 
Unserviceable equipment is tagged, faults are identified and appropriate personnel are informed
