Issue Date: May 2024
As agreed in the creation of this Training Package, applications for units transferred from the PUA00 Public Safety Training Package will be developed as part of continuous improvement plans, and taking into account the change in Unit of Competency format as detailed in templates for Streamlined Training Packages.
This unit covers the competency required to carry out policing operations within a Defence environment. This is normally done while working with an associate, but also includes the ability to work individually and independently when carrying out the operations.
The individual therefore, must possess and be able to apply a sound understanding of Defence and individual service ethics, values and principles. The ethical framework is particularly important under operational conditions where normal social values and norms can become clouded and obscured by operational priorities. In this situation the individual must be capable of displaying sound judgement in circumstances where professional and ethical ambiguities arise, or when there are conflicts of interest (eg interests of service police, unit, service and/or wider community).
The effectiveness of the individual will be determined, in large, by their application and adherence to the ethical framework, principles and values under which they operate.
