Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit specifies the skills and knowledge required to analyse and apply knowledge of the safety case development process.It includes accessing, interpreting and applying relevant safety case development information.This unit applies to Defence workers involved in the evaluation and review of safety cases but is applicable to all individuals who work in this field.The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to.Persons undertaking this unit work independently and as part of a team under direct and indirect supervision, and perform routine tasks in familiar contexts.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations, where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions.

Resources for assessment must include access to:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulations

relevant and appropriate materials, computer, software, legislation, guidelines, procedures and protocols relating to safety case processes, plans, workplace documentation currently used in industry

applicable documentation including operational procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals.
