Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Evidence of the following is essential:

ability to plan and organise daily work for a variety of roles and contexts related to the particular job under typical workplace time constraints

ability to work safely in compliance with OHS procedures

ability to follow established procedures and interpret, understand and act on instructions

ability to communicate effectively in the working environment.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

access to all necessary equipment, tools and materials

use of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS).

Methods of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

direct observation of the candidate carrying out daily work tasks in an organised manner

problem solving exercises in prioritising work and dealing with unscheduled tasks or special projects

projects to develop work plans and schedules

direct observation of the candidate maintaining a clean and tidy workplace

oral or written questions about safety issues, and maintenance of tools, equipment and materials

review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of the candidate's on-the-job performance.

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended.

Guidance information for assessment

Employability skills embedded in this unit should be assessed holistically in the context of the job role and with other relevant units that make up the skill set or qualification.

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.

The following skills must be assessed as part of this unit:

correct use of personal protective equipment

cleaning techniques for premises, machines, tools and equipment

organisational skills to conduct preparation and maintenance activities as a logical and time-efficient work flow

communication and teamwork skills to liaise with other team members on work requirements

literacy skills to complete routine workplace documentation and interpret work schedules and instruction documentation such as Material Safety Data Sheets(MSDS)

numeracy skills to calculate the dilution requirements of cleaning products, to calculate water and fertiliser requirements and to estimate time requirements and time availability

problem-solving skills to identify and respond to routine practical workplace challenges.

The following knowledge must be assessed as part of this unit:

basic knowledge of workplace products and processes

work organisation principles, including scheduling and priority setting

OHS and legislative requirements related to daily work

typical problems related to specific work areas, appropriate ways of avoiding them and suitable solutions

typical cleaning and maintenance methods and schedules related to machinery, materials and equipment relevant to the work area

the essential features of and safe practices for using common hazardous substances used during cleaning and maintenance activities and in particular substances used by the organisation e.g. cleaning, pest and disease control products

the environmental impacts of cleaning premises and maintaining gardens and minimal impact practices to reduce these especially those that relate to resource, water and energy use

correct and environmentally sound disposal methods for waste and in particular for hazardous substances and plant materials that have a propensity to propagate weeds.

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. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Work activities may include:

daily routines

periodic routines

ad hoc activities

special projects.

Organisational policies and procedures may relate to:

use of personal protective equipment during daily activities

cleaning, tidying and checking of work area, including regularity

using, maintaining and storing tools, machinery, materials and equipment

disposal of waste materials, especially hazardous substances

recycling appropriate waste materials

presentation of public areas

work schedules

problem-solving

work roles and responsibilities.

Finding solutions may relate to:

maintaining quality outcomes

minimising impact on work schedules

reflecting accurate knowledge of workplace products and processes

ensuring that solutions are consistent with workplace priorities and requirements

acknowledging commercial responsibilities and constraints.

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.
