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 all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least one occasion and include:

adapting to differences in equipment and operating environment in accordance with operating procedures

completing relevant documentation/communications

identifying and correctly using equipment and vehicles in accordance with environmental protection regulations and guidelines, and workplace procedures

identifying job hazards and taking required action to minimise, control or eliminate identified hazards

modifying activities depending on operational contingencies, risk situations and environments

reading and interpreting relevant instructions, procedures and information

recognising potential pollution risks and ways of minimising them

reporting and/or rectifying identified problems promptly, in accordance with regulatory requirements and organisational procedures

selecting and using required personal protective equipment conforming to industry, work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) and environmental codes of practice.

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

applicable state/territory legislated rail safety requirements, relevant codes of practice and/or guidelines

environmental hazards and toxicity of materials typically carried in loads

environmental protection standards required for rail operation activities

environmental risks when undertaking rail operations and related precautions to control these risks

geographical location of waterways and environmentally sensitive areas

how to use correct containment tools

relevant information/documents

relevant safety, WHS/OHS and environmental protection regulations

relevant workplace housekeeping procedures and instructions

service and maintenance procedures

site layouts including location of waste disposal bins and spill kits
