Employability Skills
Employability Skills Summary for DEF32312 Certificate III in Explosive Ordnance Manufacture
Employability Skills are part of a unit of competency.
Employability Skills statements from a selection of units of competency from the DEF32312 Certificate III in Explosive Ordnance Manufacture have been reproduced in the table below.
This table provides an example of Employability Skills for the qualification because Employability Skills within a qualification will vary depending on the qualification packaging options.
Defence qualifications have core units (which must be achieved) and elective units (where there is a choice of units which must be achieved) so different Employability Skills Summaries are possible within the one qualification, depending on the package of core units and chosen elective units.
Employability Skill | Employability Skills Statement |
Communication | access and clarify safety procedures and instructions access, read, interpret and apply information on safety develop risk statements follow instructions/directives and report information identify and note organisation incident and injury statistics identify and/or acquire documentation and licensing limitations identify and recognise hazardous materials labels and characteristics, and apply relevant action/criteria identify and report incidents identify breaches in site safety and act on or report negotiate means of implementing the emergency risk management process obtain relevant authorisation before specialised and hazardous work is carried out record and report details of first aid administered read to a level required to interpret job instructions, workplace forms and reports use a variety of verbal and non-verbal communication techniques write at the level required to complete workplace documentation and reports |
