Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to utilise a standardised product description language.This unit is designed to give workers in boning rooms an understanding of how a standardised product description system is used in a specific workplace. It can be used to improve the skills and knowledge of product description for packers, slicers and boners.All work should be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, customer requirements and product specifications.This unit applies to individuals who work under broad direction and take responsibility for their own work including limited responsibility for the work of others. They provide and communicate solutions to a range of predictable problems.No occupational licensing, legislative or certification requirements are known to apply to this unit at the time of publication.This unit must be delivered and assessed in the context of Australian meat processing standards and regulations.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Competency must be assessed in an operating meat processing plant.

Competency must be demonstrated applying the language to actual carcases and meat cuts.

As a minimum, the following three forms of assessment must be used:

quiz of underpinning knowledge

workplace demonstration

workplace referee or third-party report of performance over time

Assessors must satisfy the current standards for RTOs.
