Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

LMFGG2005C - Move glass sheets by hand

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare for task

  1. Work requirements in the form of type and quantity of glass to be relocated are identified from work instructions
  2. Occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements for movement of glass sheets by hand, including personal protective equipment, are observed throughout the work
  3. Sheet glass to be moved is identified and weight, shape and points of balance, and dimensions estimated or calculated
  4. Tools and equipment and manual handling procedures for lifting, lowering and carrying, pushing and pulling are identified
  5. Risks to self, others, material and equipment are identified arising from the required lifting, load carrying, set down or movement of the glass
  6. Need for glass lifting equipment or team lifting is determined and team lifting processes are considered for application
  7. Glass is checked for imperfections and damage prior to movement
Work requirements in the form of type and quantity of glass to be relocated are identified from work instructions

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria required skills and knowledge range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently:

interpret work order/job instructions correctly and locate and apply relevant information to plan the relocation of glass by hand

apply safe handling requirements for moving glass by hand, including use of personal protective equipment

plan the movement of the glass sheets safely and effectively

follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required production output and product quality

as a minimum:

demonstrate safety and inspection procedures prior to lifting

safely lift and relocate annealed and laminated glass up to, and including, 1.2 m2 (17 kg)

safely team lift and relocate annealed and laminated glass up to, and including, 4.5 m2 (68 kg)

load and unload glass safely and efficiently

work effectively with others

modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically simulated workplace.

Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.

Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context.

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standard requirements.

The following resources should be made available:

glass sheet to be relocated

workplace operating procedures and personal protection equipment

an appropriate work area.

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the LMF02 Furnishing Industry Training Package.

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace 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 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.

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency.

Guidance information for assessment

Required Skills and Knowledge

Required skills include:

collecting, organising and understanding information related to work orders, basic plans and safety procedures

using communication skills to the level required to confirm work requirements and specifications; communicate effectively regarding work requirements with supervisors, other workers and customers; report work outcomes and problems; and relate to people from a range of social, cultural and ethnic backgrounds, and of varying physical and mental abilities

using literacy skills to the level required to understand information related to work orders, including common industry terminology, plans and safety procedures; prepare reports; and interpret technical information and specifications

planning and organising activities, including the preparation and layout of the work area, and the obtaining of equipment and materials to avoid any backtracking, workflow interruptions or wastage

working with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity

using mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate work requirements and assemble required materials

using pre-checking and inspection techniques to plan work, avoid re-working and unnecessary effort, and plan routes, including the avoidance/overcoming of obstacles/hazards

using workplace technology related to the relocation of glass sheets by hand

Required knowledge includes:

the qualities and characteristics of glass, including hazards and handling requirements and the behaviour of glass sheets when lifted and moved

workflow requirements in relation to the movement of glass by hand

the principles, requirements and techniques of moving glass sheets by hand and loading and unloading glass to/from trucks and skips

workplace safety system requirements related to the moving of glass sheets by hand
