Unit of Competency TLIW2023 - Manufacture pallets using manual methods
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to manufacture pallets using manual methods, in accordance with regulations and workplace requirements in the transport and logistics industry.It includes planning the production of pallets, setting up manual pallet production processes, undertaking manual production of pallets and completing operations. Work is generally performed under some supervision, within a team/group 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 simulations

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

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