This describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit. |
Required skills |
speak clearly and directly apply teamwork to a range of situations solve problems particularly in teams paying attention to performance indicators to reflect changed circumstances show initiative in adapting to changing work conditions or contexts particularly when working across a variety of work areas access, interpret and apply information on relevant organisation policies, procedures and instructions manage time when planning, preparing and organising work priorities take responsibility for organising own work priorities. |
Required knowledge |
relevant Occupational Health and Safety and Environmental legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice and organisation policies and procedures needed to carry out work in a manner which ensures the safety of people, equipment and the environment. organisational supply/replenishment systems and processes for materials, equipment and tools quality systems and performance measures established communication channels and protocols problem identification and resolution procedures for the recording, reporting and maintenance of organisation records and information. |
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package. | |
Overview of assessment | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | Evidence of the following is essential: compliance with relevant legislation, regulations, standards, codes of practice and established safe practices and organisation policies and procedures for sustaining quality systems working and communicating effectively and positively with others involved in the work applying, within authority, the requirements of the job or work role in relation to: selecting the appropriate performance measures accurately documenting and reporting findings achieving work quality goals completing work area housekeeping requirements modify activities to cater for variations in organisation context and environment. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | assessment of the competency should take place in a safe working environment in a passenger motor vehicle manufacturing plant or simulated environment using tools/equipment/machinery required for the production process without undue disruption to the production process assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints |
Method of assessment | A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit: assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of organisation relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances. |
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 in the Performance Criteria is detailed below. Add any 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. | |
Instructions may include: | organisation procedures relating to the use and operation of tools and equipment production planning figures organisation instructions, including job sheets, plans, specifications, drawings and designs organisation procedures relating to reporting and communications manufacturers' instructions for the use of equipment and materials. |
