This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to manage and supervise compliance in race meeting and non-race meeting contexts, and the application of, and ability to, practice and supervise ethical and integrity compliance, and manage investigations and inquiries, within associated rules of racing and legislation.

The unit applies to individuals who perform the role of chairman of stewards to maintain and uphold fair racing, and supervise and enforce the industry's probity and integrity standards as empowered by the relevant racing code's national and local rules of racing.

Greyhound, harness and thoroughbred racing are strictly regulated throughout Australia. All stewards are appointed under the rules of racing by the relevant controlling body or Principal Racing Authority (PRA). Users are advised to check with the relevant authority for requirements.

All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, in accordance with applicable state/territory animal welfare and workplace health and safety legislative requirements.

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