Unit of Competency LMTML3005A - Use skin, fur or leather in millinery products
Description This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to make millinery from skin, fur or leather.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit applies to the production of a range of millinery items using skin, fur or leather. 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 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 for safe and effective use of millinery technology and operations. This unit also requires an ability to interpret design and production requirements, check the quality of outcomes and identify and address problems relating to own work, materials or equipment.
