Elements and Performance Criteria

Prepare physical elements for transportation
Load/unload physical elements
Check condition of physical elements
- Check the condition of physical elements to ensure that no damage has occurred during bump-in/bump-out
- Identify any repairs required and report to the appropriate personnel for action, using correct documentation as required

Required Skills

Evidence Required

Underpinning skills and knowledge

Assessment must include evidence of the following knowledge and skills

general knowledge of the bump inbump out process for different types of production including typical procedures and processes and the roles and responsibilities of different personnel

general knowledge of the typical physical elements used for different types of production

typical locations for different physical elements within a production venue

safe manual handling techniques and the broader safety issues associated with the movement of physical elements

relevant organisational andor legislative Occupational Health and Safety requirements

packing materials and techniques used for different types of equipment

techniques for loading and stowing equipment for safe transportation

the range of tools commonly required during the bump inbump out process

literacy skills sufficient to read simple work instructions equipment lists and safety directions

numeracy skills sufficient to counttally equipment and other physical elements

Linkages to other units

This unit has linkages to a range of other general and specialised technical units and combined assessment andor training with those units may be appropriate for example

MEMA B Use hand tools

Critical aspects of evidence

The following evidence is critical to the judgement of competence in this unit

knowledge of safe manual handling techniques for various types of equipment

ability to move pack and load equipment under instruction using safe manual handling techniques

Method and context of assessment

The assessment context must provide for

practical demonstration of skills through the packing loading and positioning of physical elements required in a given production

involvement of and interaction with a team during the bump inbump out process

Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge and might include

direct observation of the candidate packing loading or unloading equipment during a bump inbump out

oral or written questioning to assess knowledge of equipment types and features safety issues

case studies or problem solving exercises to assess the candidates ability to respond to different operational situations and contexts

review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of onthe job performance by the candidate

Resource requirements

Assessment of this unit requires access to

a venue or location for bump inbump out

a range of equipment typically used for a production

transportation into which equipment can be loaded
