Underpinning skills and knowledge
Assessment must include evidence of the following knowledge and skills:
general knowledge of the bump in/bump out process for different types of production, including typical procedures and processes and the roles and responsibilities of different personnel
general knowledge of the typical physical elements used for different types of production
typical locations for different physical elements within a production venue
safe manual handling techniques and the broader safety issues associated with the movement of physical elements
relevant organisational and/or legislative Occupational Health and Safety requirements
packing materials and techniques used for different types of equipment
techniques for loading and stowing equipment for safe transportation
the range of tools commonly required during the bump in/bump out process
literacy skills sufficient to read simple work instructions, equipment lists and safety directions
numeracy skills sufficient to count/tally equipment and other physical elements.
Linkages to other units
This unit has linkages to a range of other general and specialised technical units, and combined assessment and/or training with those units may be appropriate, for example:
MEM18.1A B - Use hand tools
Critical aspects of evidence
The following evidence is critical to the judgement of competence in this unit:
knowledge of safe manual handling techniques for various types of equipment
ability to move, pack and load equipment under instruction using safe manual handling techniques.
Method and context of assessment
The assessment context must provide for:
practical demonstration of skills through the packing, loading and positioning of physical elements required in a given production
involvement of and interaction with a team during the bump in/bump out process.
Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include:
direct observation of the candidate packing, loading or unloading equipment during a bump in/bump out
oral or written questioning to assess knowledge of equipment types and features, safety issues
case studies or problem solving exercises to assess the candidate's ability to respond to different operational situations and contexts
review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the job performance by the candidate.
Resource requirements
Assessment of this unit requires access to:
a venue or location for bump in/bump out
a range of equipment typically used for a production
transportation into which equipment can be loaded.
