This unit applies to managing production in a TCF workplace where judgement is required in planning, technical or supervisory activities related to operations or processes in substantially non-routine situations.

The unit is applied under limited guidance in line with a broad plan, budget or strategy as part of the major functional area or in highly specialised situations requiring a range of skills.

Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities.

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 communication to interpret production information, discuss details with work team and ensure documentation meets enterprise standards. Planning and organising is required to facilitate the implementation of production. Initiative and enterprise and problem solving will be used to identify and assess production issues and implement appropriate action.

This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to manage a production facility in a textiles, clothing and footwear (TCF) workplace.

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