List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
ELEMENTS | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Determine work requirements of lifting and repositioning or deepening operation. | 1.1 Review application to lift and reposition or deepen burial site. 1.2 Review cemetery records and consult manager or appropriate funeral services personnel to determine options. 1.3 Inspect grave location and surrounds and identify existing or potential limitations. 1.4 Determine work requirements according to relevant information. 1.5 Prepare costing and communicate response to applicant. |
2. Advise work requirements. | 2.1 Develop work instructions and advise relevant personnel. 2.2 Confirm availability of relevant personnel, tools, equipment and machinery. 2.3 Confirm availability and serviceability of safety equipment. 2.4 Confirm work requirements with applicant and appropriate personnel as required. |
3. Oversee work requirements. | 3.1 Assemble relevant personnel, tools, equipment and machinery. 3.2 Liaise with relevant personnel to monitor operation. 3.3 Inspect and confirm nameplate as required. 3.4 Proceed with shoring or stopping operation and making good the grave. 3.5 Advise applicant of work outcome. 3.6 Complete relevant documentation. |
Evidence of the ability to:
review, assess, cost and negotiate applications for lifting and repositioning or deepening human remains according to legislative and workplace requirements
coordinate required personnel, tools, equipment and machinery and monitor operations to ensure all repositioning works are conducted safely and efficiently and in accordance with work requirements.
Evidence of performance on two or more operations is required to demonstrate consistency of performance and ability to respond to different situations.
Demonstrated knowledge of:
relevant federal, state or territory, and local government legislation and regulations relating to work health and safety/occupational health and safety and assessment of applications to lift and reposition or deepen human remains
workplace policies and procedures relating to lift and reposition or deepen applications and operations
grave shoring requirements and methods
appropriate tools, equipment and machinery used to lift and reposition or deepen human remains, and their associated usage
environmental impacts in relation to burial works and minimal impact practices to reduce these, especially those that relate to resource, water and energy use
environmentally sound disposal methods for all types of waste and in particular for hazardous substances.
Skills must be demonstrated in the workplace or in a simulated environment that is as industry realistic as possible. In a simulated environment, it is essential that assessment is conducted:
using suitable facilities, equipment and resources, including:
a cemetery environment that allows for visual inspection of gravesites and surrounds
tools, equipment and machinery, including personal protective equipment
relevant documentation, such as cemetery records
under industry operating conditions where there is:
integration of tasks with possible interruptions to work typical of the job role
speed and timing requirements that reflect commercial operating conditions
interaction with relevant personnel.
Assessors must satisfy the NVR/AQTF mandatory competency requirements for assessors.
