Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge to take responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the work or functional area and its compliance with legislation and licensing, registration, ethical or accreditation requirements, for example, National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA), and workplace policies and procedures.This unit applies to senior technical officers and laboratory supervisors in all industry sectors. While statutory or legal compliance is the responsibility of all personnel, supervisors have an important leadership role in promoting and monitoring workplace practices that enhance compliance. They work under broad supervision of scientists/medical staff/engineers.No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. However, regulations and/or external accreditation requirements for laboratory operations exist, so local requirements should be checked. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must also be applied.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.
