Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to store waste in a storage facility prior to its transport and further treatment or disposal. The unit covers assessing waste including volume and waste types, to identify an appropriate storage facility. The unit also covers using equipment to facilitate waste storage, and ensuring waste is appropriately stacked, contained, secured and covered to maintain quality and prevent contamination or spillage.The unit supports those who work under limited supervision in a waste management team.No licensing, legislative, regulatory, or certification requirements apply to this unit of competency at the time of endorsement.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

The following must be present and available to learners during assessment activities:

equipment:

equipment required to facilitate waste storage, as specified by organisational requirements

personal protective equipment (PPE), as specified by organisational requirements

relationships with team members and supervisor:

working under limited supervision.

Timeframe:

as specified by organisational requirements.

Assessor requirements

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy the assessor requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) current at the time of assessment.
