Knowledge Evidence

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

communications techniques crew booking on and booking off procedures, and physical configuration of locations where this activity occurs factors involved in producing an optimal roster data required to put a train crew roster together such as station names, approximate driving time to and from driver ‘home’ station to those stations need for managerial authorisation of a roster or roster change organisational work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) policies and procedures as they relate to train crew rostering reasons why a roster may not be optimal relevant skills required to use computer systems (keyboard, mouse, software) specific crew related procedures and updates publicised by the Rail Safety Regulator train crew records of competence.
