This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to manage the identification of hazards and the assessment and control of risks associated with generating plant and equipment.

Work,Health and Safety(WHS)/OccupationalHealth and Safety(OHS) is concerned with protecting the wellbeing of all workplace stakeholders from exposure to hazards and risks resulting fromactivities in power generation facilities. It involves the assessment and mitigation of risks that can cause short and long term harm.

Competency in this unit requires the ability to identify hazards, analyse and manage WHS/OHS risks, implement and manage procedures for identifying risks, recommend controls for hazards, identify and manage licensing and certification issues and review and evaluate risk control measures. Individuals will, in general, work as operators with responsibility for WHS/OHS, in a power generation facility.

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

Note: Workplace practice

The application of the skills and knowledge described in this unit may require a licence or training permit to practice in the workplace where work is carried out on gas and electrical installations. Additional conditions may apply under state and territory legislative and regulatory licensing requirements.

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.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment. Non-essential conditions may be found in the Companion Volume Implementation Guide.

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.
