Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to develop and establish incident response preparedness and response systems.An incident is an event which causes, or could have caused, injury or illness; damage to plant, material or the environment; disruption to production or public alarm.An incident is an unintended event, or an unintended consequence of an intended event, such as: fire and explosionloss of containmentexcursions above/below acceptable limits for emissions or plant conditionsexcursions above occupational hygiene or biological exposure limitsnon-compliance with regulatory requirementssecurity breachesfailure to follow procedurescomplaintsvehicle incidentson/off-site incidents.This unit of competency applies to incident management team members who are required to gather strategic operational and risk information, seek input from stakeholders and specialist services, as required, and translate that into a framework of management and operational systems which enable organisation personnel to effectively prepare for and respond to an incident. This unit of competency applies to an individual working alone or as part of an incident management team and working in liaison with other members of the incident management team and the incident manager, as appropriate.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. The unit should be assessed holistically and the judgement of competence based on a holistic assessment of the evidence. Performance evidence must include the development of containment strategies for at least two (2) different types of incident, the collection of which is best done from a report and/or folio of evidence drawn from: a single project which provides sufficient evidence of the requirements of all the elements and performance criteria multiple smaller projects which together provide sufficient evidence of the requirements of all the elements and performance criteria. A third-party report, or similar, may be needed to testify to the work done by the individual, particularly when the project has been done as part of a project team. Assessment should use a real project in an operational workplace. Where this is not possible or practical, assessment must occur using a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment reflecting realistic operational workplace conditions. This must cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills. Knowledge evidence may be collected concurrently with performance evidence (provided a record is kept) or through an independent process, such as workbooks, written assessments or interviews (provided a record is kept). Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate. Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance of the unit and should not be assessed separately. Assessors must satisfy the assessor competency requirements that are in place at the time of the assessment as set by the VET regulator. In addition, the assessor or anyone acting in subject matter expert role in assessment must demonstrate both technical competency and currency. If the assessor cannot demonstrate technical competency and currency they must assess with a subject matter expert who does meet these requirements. Technical competence can be demonstrated through one or more of: relevant VET or other qualification/Statement of Attainment appropriate workplace experience undertaking the type of work being assessed under routine and non-routine conditions appropriate workplace experience supervising/evaluating the type of work being assessed under routine and non-routine conditions Currency can be demonstrated through one or more of: being currently employed undertaking the type of work being assessed being employed by the organisation undertaking the type of work being assessed and having maintained currency in accordance with that organisation’s policies and procedures having consulted/had contact with an organisation undertaking the type of work being assessed within the last twelve months, the consultation/contact being related to assessment conducting on-the-job training/assessments of the type of work being assessed being an active member of a relevant professional body and participating in activities relevant to the assessment of this type of work |
