Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Calculate yield of a single carcase
  • Establish the carcase weight to be used for calculation according to workplace specifications
  • Confirm class of animal to be assessed according to workplace requirements
  • Identify and weigh cuts that constitute a full set
  • Identify and weigh other meat products recovered, including trim and other meat recovered
  • Identify and weigh fat and bones, including rib frames and H bone waste
  • Calculate percentage yield of the full set, total meat, fat and bone
  • Perform tasks according to health and safety, hygiene and workplace requirements
       
Element: Calculate yield of a single product
  • Identify and weigh individual cuts to calculate yield
  • Calculate percentage yield for each muscle group
       
Element: Calculate carcase and product yield for a production period
  • Identify and collect production run weights for cuts that constitute the full set
  • Identify and collect production run weights for other meat recovered
  • Calculate total meat yield
  • Determine appropriate expected yields
  • Compare results with company tolerances for differences between achieved and expected yields
       
Element: Identify ways to correct differences between achieved and expected yields
  • Determine potential causes of differences between actual and expected yields according to workplace specifications
  • Report on potential methods to achieve expected yields according to workplace requirements

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. 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.
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.
