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.

This section describes the knowledge and skills required for this unit.

Required knowledge:

Hazards that may exist during the start up and shut down of medium/heavy self-propelled track vehicles and ways of controlling the risks involved

Organisational procedures for conducting brake tests on medium/heavy self-propelled track vehicles

Problems that may occur during testing of brakes on medium/heavy self-propelled track vehicles and action that can be taken to report or resolve the problems

Relevant rail safety, occupational health and safety (OH&S) and environmental procedures and regulations

Types of brake tests and their purpose

Required skills:

Adapt to differences in track vehicles and associated equipment and procedures

Communicate effectively with others

Modify activities depending on differing operational contingencies, risk situations and environments

Read and interpret instructions, procedures, information and signs relevant to testing brakes on a track vehicle

Work collaboratively with others

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance.

Types of brakes and tests may include:

hand/park brake

service brake

train brake

emergency brake

Safety and protective equipment may include:

high visibility clothing

gloves

safety glasses

safety headwear

safety footwear

hearing protection

Information/documents may include:

workplace procedures and instructions and job specification

manufacturer specifications and standards

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.
