Develop response to sustainability related regulation
Assessment tool
Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024
This unit applies in organisations that are may be impacted by sustainability regulation. Some possible applications are carbon containment/reduction schemes/regulations or incentives or other schemes that may be implemented. The application of the unit includes Australian and overseas schemes where the organisation is part of an export value chain or is a subsidiary required to report against a scheme covering an overseas parent.
It would typically be undertaken by a manager or technical specialist who had a major responsibility for sustainability as part of a broader work role, or sustainability may be their primary work responsibility. The manager or technical specialist may undertake this alone or as part of a team.
The technical measurement of operational performance or measurement of emissions or other environmental impact is not covered by this unit. Specific units covering these and similar aspects are contained within the MSS40211 Certificate IV in Environmental Monitoring and Technology.
This unit of competency covers identifying responsibilities and developing an appropriate response to schemes regulating sustainability, including carbon and carbon equivalent use and emission. It includes the ongoing monitoring and adjusting of responses to the regulatory environment and organisational situation.
