The application of this unit in the workplace - the environments, complexities and situations involved - will be written during Phase II of the Review of the PUA00 Public Safety Training Package.
This text will be useful for the purposes of job descriptions, recruitment advice or job analysis; where possible, it will not be too job specific to allow other industries to import it into other Training Packages, where feasible.
This unit covers the competency required to operate a direct fire support weapon.
Operating a direct fire support weapon involves the ability to safely handle, safely maintain, safely operate and safely fire the direct fire support weapon.
The weapon is designed to be carried by a person.
The individual will be under supervision, usually as part of a team and will usually operate under direct orders.
