Unit of Competency | LMTCL4003A - Measure, lay-up and cut custom-made garments |
|---|---|---|---|
| Description | This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to perform cutting to order for one off single lays within the clothing industry. | ||
| Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
| Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit applies to measuring, laying-up and cutting of custom-made garments. Discretion and judgement may be required, for both self and others, in planning and selecting processes, procedures or outcomes.Degree of complexity will relate to fabrics being used and intricacy of design.Laying-up tasks may be associated with laying-up operations where size, shape and cost of fabric are significant.Measuring, cutting and pattern selection or alteration may be combined in made to measure specialist order cutting.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 communication to accurately interpret garment and pattern information and take measurements. Planning and organising is required for safe and effective use of cutting technology and operations. This unit also requires an ability to check the quality of outcomes and identify and address problems relating to own work. | ||

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: garment construction assembly methods fabric properties such as weight, shrinkage, pile, grain and pattern shapes the importance of the selvedge and bias of fabrics and their characteristics safety and environmental aspects of relevant enterprise activities OHS practices, including hazard identification and control measures quality practices workplace practices recording and reporting practices |
Demonstrates skills to: use appropriate techniques for laying-up and cutting operations apply all the relevant safety practices when working in the clothing industry communicate effectively with clients, individuals, work groups and supervisors document and transfer information 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 our 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. | |||
Garment dimensions may include: | special individual requirements, such as posture, shape, etc. | |||
OHS practices | OHS practices must include hazard identification and control, risk assessment and implementation of risk reduction measures specific to the tasks described by this unit, and may include: 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 other OHS practices relevant to the job and enterprise | |||
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.
