Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

AHCPHT206A - Handle and move mushroom boxes

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Distribute boxes for filling to picking rooms.

  1. Materials, tools and equipment appropriate to the task being undertaken are selected, assembled where required, and positioned.
  2. Pre-operational and safety checks are carried out on materials, tools and equipment according to manufacturer specifications and farm procedures.
  3. Empty boxes are distributed to pickers in a timely and efficient manner to ensure smooth flow of picking work.
  4. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and clothing are selected and used.
  5. Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) requirements and hazards associated with the tasks are identified and appropriate action is taken to minimise risks to self and others.
  6. Site quarantine protocols and farm and personal hygiene requirements are applied and followed as required by farm procedures and supervisor instructions.
  7. All work is performed in an environmentally aware and safe manner according to farm procedures and supervisor instructions.

Collect and move filled boxes.

  1. Collection of filled boxes is coordinated with delivery of empty boxes to minimise trolley trips and ensure smooth flow of picking work.
  2. Filled boxes are stacked on trolleys to the recommended height.
  3. Stacked trolleys are moved from picking rooms safely and with consideration for other traffic flow in the area.
  4. Filled boxes are handled carefully to ensure mushroom quality is maintained.
  5. Filled boxes are moved in a timely and efficient manner to ensure smooth flow of packing and loading work.
  6. Filled boxes are stacked in coolroom according to farm procedures.
  7. Coolroom air and mushroom pulp temperatures are recorded according to farm procedures.
  8. Variations from expected or required ranges of temperature or any other anomalies observed are reported to supervisor and remedial action is taken as directed.

Instructions to Assessors

Evidence Guide

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

The evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit must be relevant to workplace operations and satisfy holistically all of the requirements of the performance criteria and required skills and knowledge and include achievement of the following:

carry out an inventory of mushroom boxes

supply appropriate quantities of empty boxes to mushroom pickers in a number of picking rooms

handle filled boxes in such a way that mushroom quality is maintained

record coolroom air and mushroom pulp temperatures.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Competency requires the application of work practices under work conditions. Selection and use of resources for some worksites may differ due to the regional or enterprise circumstances.

Required Skills and Knowledge
