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!

AHCPLY306A - Clean and fumigate intensive production sheds

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

Prepare to clean shed

  1. Requirements for the work to be undertaken are interpreted and confirmed with supervisor.
  2. Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) hazards are identified, risks assessed and suitable controls are implemented.
  3. Suitable personal protective equipment is selected, used and maintained.
  4. The environmental implications of cleaning the shed are identified, likely outcomes assessed and, if necessary, responsible action is taken.
  5. Equipment is raised, dismantled or removed from the shed without damage for cleaning.
  6. Feed and watering equipment is raised or removed from shed, cleaned and sanitised to remove contamination.
  7. Electrical switchboards and other equipment are covered or sealed to prevent entry of water.

Fumigate shed

  1. Need for fumigation is determined from supervisors instructions, production/hygiene management plan, or management practice.
  2. OHS hazards are identified, risks assessed and suitable controls are implemented.
  3. Fumigant and apparatus are prepared according to manufacturer's instructions and in line with established safe working procedures.
  4. Shed is sealed and fumigated to ensure maximum exposure of the fumigant to disease-causing organisms.
  5. Shed is aired to ensure evacuation of toxicants prior to re-entry of staff and re-installation of equipment.
Need for fumigation is determined from supervisors instructions, production/hygiene management plan, or management practice.

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:

Implement biosecurity procedures

operate high pressure washing equipment

treat all surfaces inside and outside the shed are so that they are visually clean

apply sanitisers to cleaned surfaces

ensure minimum risk of contamination from previous flock/herd.

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.
