Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to move materials around a site. This unit applies to operators who are required to take responsibility for own outputs and follow established procedures to plan the moving of materials; ensure safety requirements are in place; perform pre-start checks; operate the equipment and secure, shift and stack materials. Operators are also required to work autonomously and apply their own judgement to interpret information; monitor processes; identify and address routine and non-routine problems and control hazards. The person undertaking this role may require additional competencies to cover the operation of forklift trucks, cranes or other regulated load shifting devices. These additional competencies may require a licence or certification.This unit applies to an individual working alone or as part of a team or group and in liaison with other shift team members, team leader and supervisor. No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.
