Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency describes the outcomes required to monitor and maintain waste paper operations, ensure product quality and record and report production data. The unit applies to production support operators who work in a pulp or paper manufacturing facility in the waste paper operations area. This typically involves working in a facility with complex integrated equipment and continuous operations.No licensing, legislative, or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

The following resources must be made available:

access to the full range of equipment involved in integrated continuous manufacturing of waste paper operations in a pulp or paper manufacturing facility

organisational workplace health and safety and standards for waste paper operations in a pulp or paper mill

maintenance tools and equipment and consumables for waste paper equipment

personal protective equipment suitable for monitoring and controlling equipment and product for waste paper operations

relevant personnel for the purposes of communicating information

template documents for recording system operation and production outcomes

fully automated, semi-automated, manually operated plant and equipment appropriate to waste paper operations and related consumables

test and diagnostic equipment.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or in a productive environment that accurately reflects performance in a workplace.

Assessor requirements

Assessors must:

hold the appropriate assessor competency standards as outlined in regulations

be able to demonstrate vocational competencies at least to the level being assessed; and

be able to demonstrate how they are continuing to develop their VET knowledge and skills as well as maintaining their industry currency and assessor competence.
