Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to develop extensive knowledge of horse physiology, anatomy and health needs and the ability to implement a range of health treatments and strategies to maintain the health and welfare of horses.The unit applies to individuals, with prior industry or professional experience working with horses, who are responsible for the health and welfare of a range of horses within a horse establishment, including training and breeding organisations, riding schools and agistment centres. It applies to a wide range of horse breeds, ages and uses, including high performance, young, breeding, pleasure horses and retired horses.No occupational licensing or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.Work health and safety and animal welfare legislation relevant to interacting with horses applies to workers in this industry. Requirements vary between industry sectors and state/territory jurisdictions. Users are advised to check with the relevant authority for specific requirements.NOTE: The terms 'occupational health and safety' (OHS) and 'work health and safety' (WHS) generally have the same meaning in the workplace. In jurisdictions where the national model WHS legislation has not been implemented, RTOs must contextualise the unit of competency by referring to current OHS legislative requirements. | ||
