Supervise operations in a textiles, clothing and footwear enterprise

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


The unit applies to a supervisory role within a TCF enterprise. This role must be carried out by someone with extensive knowledge and experience in working with machines, equipment, materials and processes associated with the TCF operations.

Work may be self-directed and unsupervised.

Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities. It may involve the supervision of a section of an enterprise, other personnel and/or technical processes.

The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include:

requirements prescribed by legislation, awards, agreements and conditions of employment

standard operating procedures

work instructions

oral, written and visual communication

quality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section output

housekeeping

tasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control and recycling

This unit requires the application of skills associated with problem solving, initiative and enterprise and planning and organising to provide supervisory support to a work team in order to meet production targets. Communication and team work skills are central to providing leadership in work operations as is the ability to problem solve machinery, technology and operational problems. This unit also requires communication skills to obtain and interpret information and feedback on work operations to ensure optimal production outcomes.

This unit covers the skills and knowledge to supervise operations within a textiles, clothing and footwear (TCF) enterprise.

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