Unit of Competency LMTGN4001A - Coordinate or set up machines for product change
Description This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to set up machines for production changes in a textiles, clothing and footwear (TCF) enterprise.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit applies to the setting up of machines for production changes in a TCF enterprise where discretion and judgement may be required, for both self and others, in planning and selecting processes, procedures or outcomes.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities. Work is performed within defined procedures under direct supervision. The unit is applied according to OHS and workplace practices of the enterprise, 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 problem solving, initiative and enterprise and planning and organising to ensure machine settings and operations achieve required specifications. Communication skills will be used to interpret product specifications, inform personnel and maintain records. Self management skills are used to ensure work meets quality and work standards.
