Issue Date: May 2024
The application of this unit in the workplace - the environments, complexities and situations involved - will be written during Phase II of the Review of the PUA00 Public Safety Training Package.
This text will be useful for the purposes of job descriptions, recruitment advice or job analysis; where possible, it will not be too job specific to allow other industries to import it into other Training Packages, where feasible.
This unit covers the competency required to perform the duties of a range safety officer during the conduct of range practices on permanent ranges. Supervising safety on a permanent range includes safe handling and operation of weapons and ammunition for which the range safety officer has been assessed as qualified to operate.
Range practices are potentially high-risk activities consequently applying, implementing and supervising safety precautions underpins all aspects of this competency.
This Unit of Competency does not cover the requirements to act as a safety officer on a grenade range.
