  • Planned route for relocating glass is checked for hazards and the work area is cleared of obstructions
  • The area is cleared of unauthorised personnel prior to and during freefall operations in accordance with workplace procedures
  • Freefall rack and table is checked for correct operation, is levelled and cleared of any foreign material
       
Element: Freefall glass
  • If used, air supply is checked for operation
  • Freefall equipment is operated in accordance with workplace procedures to move glass safely
  • Problems occurring during operation are identified and reported to appropriate persons in accordance with workplace procedures
  • Authorised changes in working procedures and/or requirements are followed
       
Element: Complete work
  • Waste and scrap material is removed for disposal or recycling as required
  • Work area is cleaned and rubbish disposed of as appropriate
  • Workplace documentation is completed as required
  • Tools, equipment and unused materials are removed and stored appropriately
       


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.

Critical aspects of evidence

Plan the freefalling of glass using the rack and table operation

Interpret work order/job instruction and locate and apply relevant information to relocate glass using a rack and table

Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment

Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required production output and product quality

As a minimum, demonstrate the ability to:

demonstrate pre-free fall glass inspections and safety procedures

move, position and operate air and tilt drop benches

freefall factory run sizes (FRS) glass up to and including 10 mm thick

freefall 6.38 mm (or greater) laminated glass

Work effectively with others

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment

Resource implications

Glass freefall rack and table, workplace operating procedures, glass sheets, personal protective equipment and an appropriate work area.

Method of assessment

Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.

Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge.

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other relevant units of competency.

Context of assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant freefall rack and table equipment, glass sheet, work instructions and deadlines.

Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Required skills

collect, organise and understand information related to work orders, basic plans, and safety procedures

communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications, coordination of work with site supervisor, other workers and customers, and the reporting of work outcomes and problems

plan and organise activities including the preparation and layout of the worksite and the obtaining of equipment and materials to avoid any backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate work requirements, optimise glass sizes for economical cutting

use pre-checking and inspection techniques to plan work, avoiding re-working and wastage

use the limited workplace technology related to the operation of freefalling rack and table

Required knowledge

the qualities and characteristics of glass, including the hazards and handling requirements

the principles and techniques of freefalling glass from a rack to a table

workplace safety system requirements related to the freefalling of glass

workflow in relation to freefalling of glass using rack and table

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.

Unit context

OHS requirements may include legislation, standards, building codes, material safety management systems and local safe operating procedures

Work is carried out in accordance with statutory requirements, environment legislation, manual handling procedures and relevant regulations and organisation insurance requirements

Work requires individuals to demonstrate discretion, judgement and problem solving skills in the planning, setting up and freefalling of glass from a rack to a table

Work may be performed in workplaces which are involved in the manufacture, processing and/or installation of sheet glass

Work is generally performed individually, with general supervision and may be part of a production process

Glass

Glass may be annealed or laminated

Tools and equipment are to include:

storage rack

drop bench

glass handling equipment and hand tools

Equipment may include:

air flotation and tilt benches with pneumatic breaker bars

Materials are to include but are not limited to:

annealed and laminated glass

Personal protective equipment

Personal protective equipment is to include that prescribed under legislation, regulation and enterprise policies and practices. It may include:

gauntlets

gloves

safety glasses

hard hats

safety footwear

aprons and overalls

Information and procedures

Workplace procedures relating to the use and operation of freefalling equipment

Workplace procedures relating to the handling and movement of glass

Workplace instructions, including job sheets, plans, cutting lists, drawings and designs

Safety standards include personal protective equipment, OHS regulations and enterprise requirements

Manufacturer instructions for the use of equipment and materials

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.
