|---|---|---|---|
| Description | This unit covers the skills and knowledge to press work as part of the garment production process. | ||
| Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
| Learning Outcomes and Application | The unit applies to pressing of work as part of the garment production process where the position and handling of work are under the control of the operator and operator skills may contribute to the final appearance and finish of the work.Work to be pressed may include stable woven and knitted natural and synthetic fabrics.Work is conducted according to defined procedures.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities.The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include:requirements prescribed by legislation, awards, agreements and conditions of employmentstandard operating procedureswork instructionsoral, written and visual communicationquality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section outputhousekeepingtasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control, and recyclingThis unit requires the application of skills associated with planning and organising to press work. Problem solving skills are required to ensure work conforms to requirements and identify any pressing problems. Communication skills are used to refer to and complete required documentation. Self management skills are used to ensure safe use of technology and conformance of own work to quality standards. | ||

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, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package. | |
Critical aspects of evidence | Demonstrates skills and knowledge to: check work against work specification or pressing instructions prepare pressing equipment and work before commencing pressing operations apply pressing techniques in operations apply OHS practices in work operations maintain accurate records |
Consistency in performance | Consistently applies skills and knowledge when: organising work completing tasks according to instructions working systematically with attention to detail identifying improvements and avoiding damage using workplace practices using OHS practices recording and reporting accidents and incidents assessing operational readiness of equipment recognising and adapting to cultural differences in the workplace, including modes of behaviour and interactions |
Resource implications | Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices. |
Context for assessment | Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment. |
Interdependent assessment | This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units. |

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.
This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit. |
Demonstrates knowledge of: pressing requirements and characteristics of typical fabrics and other materials used in garment assembly such as woven cottons, denim, single knits, tricot, gabardine, cotton drill, calico, double knit, rugby knit, poplin sewing techniques such as pleats, tucks, gathers, darts, hems and how pressing impacts on the finish quality standards and practices OHS practices, including hazard identification and control measures workplace practices recording and reporting practices |
Demonstrates skills to: consistently achieve quality and production output requirements read, interpret and follow information on work specifications, standard operating procedures and work instructions, and other reference material maintain accurate records communicate within the workplace sequence operations meet specifications clarify and check task-related information carry out work according to OHS practices |
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. Add any essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment depending on the work situation, needs if the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts. | ||
Legislative/regulatory requirements | All work must comply with relevant Federal and State or Territory legislative or regulatory requirements. | |
OHS practices | OHS practices include hazard identification and control, risk assessment and implementation of risk reduction measures specific to the tasks described by this unit, and may relate to: manual handling techniques standard operating procedures personal protective equipment safe materials handling taking of rest breaks ergonomic arrangement of workplaces following marked walkways safe storage of equipment housekeeping reporting accidents and incidents environmental practices | |
Pressing equipment may include: | irons presses industrial steam irons suction boards sleeve board sleeve roll | |
Routine minor maintenance may include: | washing out or replacing cover and padding shaking out rubber mat brushing and air blowing wire mesh applying sole-cleaning compounds to hand irons | |
Reported and recorded | records may be written, or shown by the attachment of a ticket and reports may be written or verbal. | |
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.
