Unit of Competency TLIF0013 - Manage the impact of human capabilities/limitations on human performance in a rail environment
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to manage the impact of human capabilities and limitations on human performance in a rail environment.It includes describing human error and error management and identifying factors that impact on human performance. It also includes identifying methods of creating work environments that support human performances.This unit is intended for people who manage rail safety workers, to assist them in applying human factors principles to the management of safety critical tasks and the work environment to improve safety and performance.For this unit human factors is defined as the scientific discipline that is concerned with the application of information about human characteristics, capacities, and limitations to the design of tasks, equipment and work environments.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.

Assessors must hold credentials specified within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence and all regulatory requirements included within the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in a workplace environment.

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.

Resources for assessment must include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations

applicable documentation including legislation, regulations, codes of practice and workplace procedures.

Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least one occasion and include:

describing principles of human error

identifying and explaining strategies for managing relevant factors that impact on human performance

identifying human performance limitation that affect work performance

identifying impact of factors relating to the organisation and wider systems in which people work on human performance

identifying impact of individual capabilities and limitations

identifying impact of interaction with others including:

communication on human performance

group dynamics on human performance

supervision on human performance

team coordination on human performance

team experience on human performance

identifying impact of rules and procedures on human performance

identifying impact of the design and operation of plant and equipment including technology, vehicles, tools, rollingstock and infrastructure on human performance

identifying impact of the work environment including workspace, weather and surrounds on human performance and giving consideration to design, usability, comfort and suitability.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

fair and just culture principles

human centred design principles/human factors principles

impact of factors relating to the organisation and wider systems in which people work on human performance

impact of individual capabilities and limitations including:

cognitive factors on human performance

demographic factors on human performance including age, gender and mobility

individual differences

physical factors on human performance

physiological factors on human performance

psychological factors on human performance

impact of interaction with others including:

communication on human performance

group dynamics on human performance

supervision on human performance

team coordination on human performance

team experience on human performance

impact of plant and equipment including technology, vehicles, tools, rollingstock and infrastructure on human performance including consideration of design, usability, reliability and suitability

impact of rules and procedures on human performance including consideration of design, usability and suitability

impact of work environment including workspace weather and surrounds on human performance including consideration of design, usability, comfort and suitability

recognising how leaders can influence human performance through:

the design of work schedules

planning of work

fostering an appropriate authority gradient concept

quality of supervision and feedback including actively managing unsafe behaviours for example, short cuts/work arounds

leadership and culture

safety awareness including principles of human error.

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.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

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.
