Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required by individuals to assist others to use standardised work practices as a basis for continuous improvement in a competitive systems and practices environment. The standardised work applies to the normal work of others and serves as the basis for continuous improvement. This may apply in a manufacturing, office, logistics, or other service environment along any part of the value stream. It applies to a person at whatever organisational level they are employed who facilitates this in others. The standardised work procedures may apply to every step of the job or may be procedures which allow discretion in the application.The person will typically be a team leader or other person who works with, leads, facilitates and assists others. They will liaise and communicate with these others as required by the job and the standard procedures.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. | ||

A supervisor/third-party report must be prepared by someone who has a direct, relevant, current relationship with the person being assessed and who is in a position to form a judgement on workplace performance relevant to the unit of competency must include the facilitation of others to use standardised work practices as a basis for continuous improvement in own workplace will typically include the use of appropriate tools, equipment and safety gear requiring demonstration of preparation, operation, completion and responding to problems. Assessment should occur in operational workplace situations. Knowledge evidence may be collected concurrently with performance evidence (provided a record is kept) or through an independent process such as workbooks, written assessments or interviews (provided a record is kept). Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate. Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance of the unit and should not be assessed separately. Assessors must satisfy the assessor competency requirements that are in place at the time of the assessment as set by the VET regulator. The assessor must demonstrate both technical competency and currency. Technical competence can be demonstrated through: relevant VET or other qualification/Statement of Attainment AND/OR relevant workplace experience Currency can be demonstrated through: performing the competency being assessed as part of current employment OR having consulted with an organisation providing relevant environmental monitoring, management or technology services about performing the competency being assessed within the last twelve months. |
