Operate hand held air/power equipment for pallet production processes

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to operate hand held air/power equipment for pallet production processes in accordance with regulations and workplace requirements in the transport and logistics industry.

It includes identifying equipment and power requirements, setting up equipment, completing pre-use checks, operating hand held air and/or power equipment, and storing equipment appropriately after use.

Work is generally performed under some supervision, within a team/group environment.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

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

As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Resources for assessment include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations

applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals

relevant materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry.
