Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task.

Not applicable.

The range statement indicates the context for demonstrating competence. This statement is a guide and unless otherwise indicated, items may or may not apply as required by the work context.

Work is carried out in accordance with company policies and procedures, licensing requirements, manufacturer's recommendations, legislative requirements, codes of practice and industrial awards and agreements. Codes of practice include the Sugar Milling Operations Industry Code of Practice

Work procedures can involve handling chemicals, implementing environmental controls and collecting, handling and treating or disposing of waste, recycled materials and by-products

Chemical storage procedures include locating chemicals in designated storage locations, storing compatible chemicals in the one location and securing chemicals against spillage, for example through the use of bunding and trays

Responding to non-compliance includes recognising and responding to any event which occurs as part of the work process and presents an unacceptable environmental risk

Where work is conducted in restricted or confined spaces, appropriate training/certification must be provided according to state safety requirements

An environmental aspect is any activity, product or service which has the potential to affect the environment

An environmental impact is the actual problem or consequence which results from an environmental aspect

Risk assessment includes identifying the likelihood that an environmental impact will occur and the magnitude of the problem if it does occur

A control measure is a method or procedure used to prevent or mitigate environmental impacts

Identification of aspects, impacts and application of controls relate to own work responsibilities

Work may require the ability to work within a team environment

Involvement in continuous improvement can include participation in structured improvement programs and day-to-day problem solving

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
