This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to conduct production tasks on an assembly line for panelised or modular prefabricated timber building systems safely and efficiently. Critical workplace processes covered in this unit include workplace health and safety, storage and handling of building materials for major timber building sub-assemblies, quality check at the workstations before and after assembly work and control of waste material for disposal.

The unit applies to individuals who work as operators in a prefabricated timber building systems manufacturing plant. These include wood machinists, carpenters or joiners, supervisors and other trade and multi-skilled operators. Operators generally work under broad or limited direction to complete routine activities related to their own work, and take responsibility for their work.

In order to undertake this unit, individuals must have a relevant qualification or equivalent.

All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, according to state/territory health and safety regulations, legislation and standards that apply to the workplace.

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

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.

Observation Checklist

Tasks to be observed according to workplace/college/TAFE policy and procedures, relevant legislation and Codes of Practice	Yes	No	Comments/feedback
Obtain and review workplace health and safety requirements and emergency procedures for assembly operation and, where required, check with appropriate personnel
Use personal protective equipment and identify and report hazards, accidents, incidents or near misses throughout assembly operation according to workplace requirements and health and safety legislation to maintain safe work practices
Use the storage system provided for tools, equipment and building materials to enhance accessibility, protect material, and replenishment of commonly used resources
Ensure that large sub-assemblies and materials are positioned according to workplace procedures for ease of access and safety, enabling optimal use of floor space and production efficiency
Obtain and review task-specific information including design and production documents to ensure that product quality and production schedules and targets are met and that materials used conform to building products
Access building materials from storage, check the suitability for the task, quantity, relevant product certification and quality and assemble as required to meet design specifications, standards, codes, certification and production schedule
Ensure partition walls, floor elements and other regulated components are certified for thermal, acoustic and fire properties according to the design, local codes and standards
Report any incorrect information and unsuitable and non-conforming building materials to appropriate personnel for repairing the defect, resolving its cause and preventing recurrence
Access sub-assemblies from storage and check incoming variations in work processes or in design and equipment specifications
Address or report incoming variations to the appropriate personnel
Follow workplace procedures to ensure that the work is of the required standard and completed on time
Complete and check the quality of the assembly work to ensure it meets design specifications
Identify and rectify safety risks associated with manual handling of completed sub-assembly or prefabricated timber building system before its release to the next workstation or its delivery for on-site installation
Document and report time, product variations and work processes to identify non-value-added activities, delays and inefficiencies and initiate process improvement
Sort and store waste materials from assembly work according to health and safety procedures
Prepare waste materials for reuse or disposal according to workplace procedures
