Evidence Required
List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package. | |
Overview of assessment | Assessment must be carried out in a manner that recognises the cultural and literacy requirements of the assessee and is appropriate to the work performed. Competence in this unit must be achieved in accordance with food safety standards and regulations. |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | Evidence of ability to: conduct pre-start checks on machinery used for production to determine cleaning, maintenance and operation readiness determine production parameters and requirements set up line according to production requirements take corrective action in response to typical faults and inconsistencies complete workplace records and communicate line status with other personnel as required apply safe work practices and identify OHS hazards and controls safely shut down equipment apply food safety procedures. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | Assessment must occur in a real or simulated workplace where the assessee has access to: personal protective clothing and equipment production/packaging schedule and related advice on setup/changeover requirements cleaning records/clearance as required information on equipment capacity and operating parameters process/packaging equipment and related accessories and services materials/consumables required by the process hand tools as required. |
Method of assessment | This unit should be assessed together with core units and other units of competency relevant to the function or work role. Examples could be: FDFOP2011A Conduct routine maintenance FDFOP2030A Operate a process control interface. |
Guidance information for assessment | To ensure consistency in one's performance, competency should be demonstrated on more than one occasion over a period of time in order to cover a variety of circumstances, cases and responsibilities, and where possible, over a number of assessment activities. |

Required skills |
Ability to: access production/packing schedule and related information to identify line setup/changeover requirements, such as checking product sequencing and compatibility, confirming that the required cleaning and/or sanitation has occurred and required packaging components and consumables are available as appropriate select, fit and use personal protective clothing and/or equipment confirm supply of necessary equipment and related attachments, materials and services for production confirm supply of necessary equipment and services to carry out setup operations set and/or adjust equipment to meet production/packaging requirements, including selecting the required parameters or equipment settings, and changing processing set points as required position safety guards and cancel isolation/lockouts ready for operation confirm that sensors and related feedback instruments are correctly positioned and operational operate equipment to confirm equipment setup and make final adjustments as required time setup activities to meet production requirements advise affected work areas/personnel of completion of setup maintain work area to meet housekeeping standards load and/or position materials/ingredients/product and/or packaging consumables according to enterprise procedures use the control panel/system to set and adjust equipment components according to enterprise procedures conduct routine maintenance according to enterprise procedures use oral communication skills/language competence to fulfil the job role as specified by the organisation, including questioning, active listening, asking for clarification and seeking advice from supervisor work cooperatively within a culturally diverse workforce |
Required knowledge |
Knowledge of: basic operating principles of equipment and related accessories, including equipment adjustment points, range and location/alignment requirements of sensors and related feedback instruments, and status and purpose of guards operating capacities of equipment used in the work area, such as different types of equipment and/or components as required by processing operations nature of setup/changeover requirements, such as product compatibility and related cleaning requirements, impact of variation in materials or product on setup requirements, equipment and/or attachment changeovers related to given products typical equipment faults and related causes, including signs and symptoms of faulty equipment and early warning signs of potential problems pre-start checks required by setup/changeover related processes and personnel dependent on line setup, and communication responsibilities isolation, lock out and tag out procedures and responsibilities occupational health and safety (OHS) hazards and controls procedures and responsibility for reporting equipment performance information basic operating principles of process control, where relevant, including the relationship between control panels and systems and the physical equipment routine maintenance requirements and procedures where relevant |
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. | |
Policies and procedures | Work is carried out according to company procedures, regulatory and licensing requirements, legislative requirements, and industrial awards and agreements |
Legislative requirements | Legislative requirements are typically reflected in procedures and specifications. Legislation relevant to this industry includes: the Food Standards Code, including labelling, weights and measures legislation legislation covering food safety, environmental management, OHS, anti-discrimination and equal opportunity When applied to the pharmaceutical industry, relevant Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) codes apply in place of the Food Standards Code and reference to food safety is replaced by GMP |
Workplace information | Workplace information may include: standard operating procedures (SOPs) specifications production schedules and instructions standard forms and reports |
Equipment adjustment | Equipment adjustment may include: limited use of hand tools, such as Allen keys and screwdrivers, within level of responsibility |
Confirming cleaning requirements and status | Confirming cleaning requirements and status may involve: accessing cleaning records |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
