Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to implement and monitor environmental protection policies and procedures.It includes accessing relevant information concerning environmental protection regulations and procedures as well as implementing and monitoring environmental hazard procedures, related control procedures, environmental training arrangements and required records and documentation. People achieving competence in this unit will need to comply with relevant national, state/territory legislative and regulatory requirements and codes of practice.Work is generally performed within a team environment.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.

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations, current at the time of assessment.

As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations, current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate workplace conditions.

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.

Resources for assessment include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or other simulations

relevant and appropriate materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry

applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals.
