This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to receive grain intended for malting from road, rail or sea transport, including checking of documentation, weighing, conducting pest, contamination and other initial checks, and placement of grain into storage.

The unit applies to operators in commercial malting plants who are responsible for receiving grain from farmers or agents for malting. The grain received in most cases will be barley but may also be wheat. The unit covers the grain receival process where operators determine or work with others to determine if delivered grain should be accepted, including checking of documentation, sampling and testing, screening and storage.

All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, in accordance with State/Territory work health and safety legislation that apply to the workplace.

No occupational licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
