Unit of Competency MSFBA3014 - Assemble pelmets
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to cut, prepare and assemble pelmet components for interior blind installations according to job requirements. The unit involves planning job requirements, identifying required pelmets and components to be used, and applying workplace procedures to ensure safe and correct assembly. The unit does not involve installing pelmets.The unit applies to those assembling pelmets for any interior residential or commercial environment. The pelmets may be for a range of interior blinds, including aluminium, plastic or timber Venetian blinds; and Roman, roller or vertical blinds.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessment must occur in the workplace, or in a simulated environment that reflects workplace conditions and contingencies.

Access is required to tools, materials, equipment and specifications for the assembly described in the performance evidence above, including:

pelmets for blinds specified in the performance evidence

PPE applicable to job requirements:

hearing protection

protective clothing and head wear

respiratory protection

safety footwear

safety glasses or goggles

WHS documentation specific to the assembly

tools and equipment specified in the knowledge evidence

workplace documentation required for each assembly process, including:

work orders

workplace procedures

supplier instructions and manufacturer specifications.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the assessor requirements in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
