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!

LMFGG2006C - Move single glass sheets by mechanical means

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 mechanical means, including personal protective equipment, are observed throughout the work
  3. Glass sheets to be moved are identified and weight is estimated or calculated and safe movement requirements applied
  4. Appropriate mechanical handling equipment, and tools and equipment are identified
  5. Risks arising from the required lifting to self, others, material and equipment are identified, load carrying, set down or movement of the glass
  6. Equipment and controls, including emergency stops and guards, are identified and checked for safe operation with any damaged or worn parts reported to appropriate personnel
  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 and locate and apply relevant information to plan the relocation of glass using mechanical means

select and use appropriate equipment and techniques to relocate glass sheets

apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment

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:

identify personal protective safety apparel and safety regulations for overhead lifting

identify and safely using gantry cranes up to 4.9 SWL, including relevant standards and regulations

identify and use vacuum rigs or scissor grabs for lifting single glass sheets

follow pre-safety and inspection procedures

calculate weight, and safely load and secure glass

relocate single sheets of glass by vacuum or scissor grabs up to 4.5 m2 (170 kg)

work effectively with others.

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:

mechanical glass handling equipment

glass sheet to be relocated

workplace operating procedures

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 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 mechanical means

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 mechanical means

principles, requirements and techniques of moving glass sheets by mechanical means

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

capabilities, operating processes and procedures of mechanical handling equipment

modifying activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment
