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!

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and demonstrate the ability to:

read and interpret procedures, job specifications, material labels and safety data sheets (SDS)

identify existing policies and procedures relevant to waste disposal and recycling

determine sources and quantities of waste

plan the handling and storage of waste for recycling and disposal processes

retain contractors to meet waste disposal/recycling requirements

establish systems to record and report recycling and disposal of waste products

develop and communicate procedures for handling and storage of waste for recycling and disposal

determine training needs to support the procedures and provide/arrange for training

monitor key variables, including:

amount and type of waste to be disposed of

numbers of personnel to be employed in the process and where

nature and type of the waste management process

types of records to be kept or documentation to be provided

activities of waste collection employees

variations to and changes to waste management systems

waste management/environmental issues

safety requirements

distinguish between causes of problems, including:

operational problems

materials properties/variations/contamination

process abnormalities

procedural errors/performance issues

recognise and prioritise problems requiring action

resolve routine and non-routine problems

communicate effectively with team/work group and supervisors

complete workplace records

do basic arithmetical manipulations, including additions, subtractions, divisions, fractions and percentages.

Must provide evidence that demonstrates knowledge relevant to their job sufficient to operate independently and to solve routine and non-routine problems, including knowledge of:

types of waste being produced in the work environment, materials characteristics

common methods for disposal and/or recycling for types of waste being produced

types and application of waste retrieval equipment, materials, processes and procedures

function and principles of operation of waste equipment

their possible causes

potential consequences

Range Statement

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Regulatory framework

The latest version of all legislation, regulations, industry codes of practice and Australian/international standards, or the version specified by the local regulatory authority, must be used.

Applicable legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice include:

health, safety and environmental (HSE) legislation, regulations and codes of practice relevant to the workplace, manual handling, hazardous materials and environmental protection

Australian/international standards relevant to the materials being used and products being made

any relevant licence and certification requirements.

All operations to which this unit applies are subject to stringent HSE requirements, which may be imposed through state/territory or federal legislation, and these must not be compromised at any time. Where there is an apparent conflict between performance criteria and such requirements the legislative requirements take precedence.

Procedures

All operations must be performed in accordance with relevant procedures.

Procedures are written, verbal, visual, computer-based or in some other form, and include one or any combination of:

emergency procedures

work instructions

standard operating procedures (SOPs)

safe work method statements (SWMS)

formulas/recipes

batch sheets

temporary instructions

any similar instructions provided for the smooth running of the plant.

Hazards

Hazards must be identified and controlled. Identifying hazards requires consideration of:

fumes/vapours

weight, shape, volume of materials to be handled

hazardous products and materials

rotational equipment or vibration

sharp edges, protrusions or obstructions

slippery surfaces, spills or leaks

smoke, dust or other atmospheric hazards

high temperatures

electricity

gas

gases and liquids under pressure

structural hazards

equipment failures

machinery, equipment and product mass

other hazards that might arise.

Problems

Routine and non-routine problems must be resolved.

Non-routine problems must be resolved by applying operational knowledge to develop new solutions, either individually or in collaboration with relevant experts, to:

determine problems needing action

determine possible fault causes

develop solutions to problems which do not have a known solution

follow through items initiated until final resolution has occurred

report problems outside area of responsibility to designated person.

Non-routine problems are unexpected problems or variations of previous problems and include one or more of:

variations in contractor/personnel performance

atypical waste production situations

emergency situations

intermittent faults.

Operational knowledge includes one or more of:

procedures

training

technical information, such as journals and engineering specifications

remembered experience

relevant knowledge obtained from appropriate people.

Routine problems are predictable and have known solutions and include one or more of:

hold-ups in waste removal

environmental queries

waste removal systems not working.
