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!

Evidence:
|
Advise decision makers of their obligation under law to design and supply a safe designed product by eliminating OHS hazards and controlling for residual OHS risk Completed |
Evidence:
|
Promote OHS within the design requirements and include an overall risk evaluation of the designed product's life cycle Completed |
Evidence:
|
Source and make available to decision makers the most current information of OHS principles, materials, technology and systems for application in the design of the product Completed |
Evidence:
|
Identify and make available required education and training to enable decision makers to have the necessary skills and knowledge to identify and eliminate OHS hazards, and to control OHS risk in the design phase Completed |
Evidence:
|
Identify and access relevant sources of information and data, for equipment users in particular Completed |
Evidence:
|
Consult potential users of the equipment during the design phase Completed |
Evidence:
|

Develop a systematic hazard identification and OHS risk evaluation system for safe design
|
|
Identify OHS hazards and conduct a risk analysis of associated risks across the life cycle of the designed product Completed |
Evidence:
|
Guide the selection and implementation of the most appropriate OHS risk controls for the designed product from a systematic analysis of the likelihood and consequences of injury or illness arising from exposure to identified OHS hazards Completed |
Evidence:
|
Ensure hazard identification and risk analysis includes potential alterations to the designed product during its life Completed |
Evidence:
|
Document decision making during the OHS risk evaluation process and make accessible to all parties Completed |
Evidence:
|
Establish a residual risk register, recording OHS hazards not eliminated in the design together with possible control strategies, and distribute this information to those involved in the downstream or subsequent life cycle stages Completed |
Evidence:
|
Monitor the design as it evolves to identify potential new OHS hazards and to manage risks if they become evident Completed |
Evidence:
|
Advise on principles of OHS risk control
|
|
Base design to minimise risk on the hierarchy of control Completed |
Evidence:
|
Minimise the impact of possible failure or defect, by ensuring the designed product includes fail-to-safe action Completed |
Evidence:
|
Advise on consultation processes between people involved in the life cycle of the designed product
|
|
Advise decision makers to consider the needs of the range of people who will use or interact with the designed product Completed |
Evidence:
|
Arrange consultation between all parties during the concept and detailed design phases to identify and eliminate OHS hazards and minimise risk Completed |
Evidence:
|
Appropriately communicate residual OHS risk in the designed product to those who will use or interact with the designed product throughout its life cycle Completed |
Evidence:
|
Advise on contractual arrangements and procurement systems to minimise 'purchased' OHS risk
|
|
Advise decision makers involved in purchasing and contractual arrangements to include a requirement to eliminate OHS hazards, minimise OHS risks, and provide information and data on residual OHS risk Completed |
Evidence:
|
Include an agreement to carry out a safe design approach in the design brief or draft specifications Completed |
Evidence:
