This unit describes the skills and knowledge to contribute to sustainability related audits either as an audit team member or through specifically nominated research and investigations for the audit team. It includes understanding the context of the sustainability audit; concepts of resource usage and waste and how they can be expressed as carbon and carbon equivalents.

This unit applies to sustainability related audits of a part or whole organisation or its value chain. The audits may be conducted to assist in regulatory compliance or as part of a strategy to improve the sustainability of an organisation’s operations.

This unit applies to team leaders, technicians or others who may be required to assist in such an audit as part of their work role. It does not cover the skills needed to lead sustainability related audits.

No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.
