List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1 | Plan and prepare | 1.1 | Applicable work health and safety (WHS), legislative and organisational requirements relevant to rectifying faults in the manufacturing and installation of security screens and grilles are verified and complied with |
| | 1.2 | Tools and equipment are selected to carry out tasks, are consistent with the requirements of the job, checked for serviceability, and any faults are rectified or reported prior to commencement |
| | 1.3 | Materials appropriate to the work application are identified, obtained, prepared, safely handled and located ready for use |
| | 1.4 | Workplace environment considerations are identified and measures to reduce noise, dust and obstacles are applied |
2 | Assess the fault to identify rectification issues | 2.1 | Faults are identified and inspected to confirm the extent and nature of the fault |
| | 2.2 | Faults are assessed to determine whether it is a defect in workmanship, process or material |
| | 2.3 | Verbal and/or written report on the nature of the defect and probable cause is provided |
| | 2.4 | Faults found are assessed for remedial solutions |
| | 2.5 | Solution to repair the fault is selected and planned |
3 | Rectify faults | 3.1 | Damage or defective area is prepared for repair |
| | 3.2 | Specialist instruments and repair tools are applied to rectify the fault |
| | 3.3 | Damage or defective area is finished to specification |
| | 3.4 | Documentation is completed outlining the nature of the fault, work conducted and outcome, in accordance with enterprise requirements |
| | 3.5 | Rectified parts are processed for inspection and returned to the production/installation sequence |
4 | Clean up work area | 4.1 | Work area is cleared and materials disposed of |
| | 4.2 | Tools and equipment are cleaned |
Interpret work order and locate and apply relevant information
Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment
Identify materials used in the work process
Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection processes to:
minimise the risk of injury to self or others
prevent damage to goods, equipment and products
maintain required production output and product quality
Inspect, assess and rectify at least five (5) separate and different faults to specifications and enterprise inspections requirements
Use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area and estimate material requirements
Communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications and the reporting of work outcomes and problems, interpret basic plans and follow safety procedures
Avoid backtracking, work flow interruptions or wastage
Work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise work flow and productivity
State or territory WHS legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice relevant to the full range of processes for manufacturing and installing security screens and grilles
Organisational and site standards, requirements, policies and procedures for manufacturing and installing security screens and grilles
Environmental protection requirements relating to the disposal of waste material
Established communication channels and protocols
Relevant problem identification and resolution
Types of tools and equipment and procedures for their safe use, operation and maintenance
Characteristics of steel and aluminium products and defects
Procedures for the recording, reporting and maintenance of workplace records and information
Assessors must:
hold training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC) or its successors
have vocational competency in the furnishing industry at least to the level being assessed with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification
be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the furnishing industry.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time rather than a single assessment event and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.
Assessment must be by observation of relevant tasks with questioning on underpinning knowledge and, where applicable, multimedia evidence, supervisor’s reports, projects and work samples.
Assessment is to be conducted on single units of competency or in conjunction with other related units of competency. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance in the unit and should not be assessed separately.
Assessment must occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.
Access is required to materials, equipment and specifications relevant to rectifying faults in the manufacturing and/or installing security screens and grilles.
