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!

CSCSAS018 - Plan responses to incidents that jeopardise safety and security

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

Determine strategies for agreed resolutions

  1. Gather information on the incident from a range of sources.
  2. Analyse all aspects of incident to determine degree of hazard, priorities, optional outcomes and appropriate strategies.
  3. Determine immediate and long-term objectives and assess these against resources and priorities.
  4. Apply a range of communication techniques to make and maintain contact with key people.
  5. Provide clear and factual information to enable an honest and realistic assessment of the interests of key people and their positions.
  6. Develop clear options for resolving the conflict, determine their likely consequences, and analyse the associated benefits and risks.
  7. Confirm areas of agreement and re-assess points of disagreement to establish a common positive position.

Monitor plans in incidents

  1. Assess incident for degree of risk and determine response to reduce and remove the impact of the incident, minimise risk, preserve the safety and security of all involved and restore order.
  2. Take action to prevent the escalation of incident that is appropriate to the circumstances and agreed procedures.
  3. Ensure that responses and emergency action give priority to the protection of individuals from harm.
  4. Anticipate individual responses to action and stress, evaluate reactions and allocate support at the level required to minimise risks.
  5. Ensure that guidelines for force used for the restoration of control and the maintenance of security result in humane and least-restrictive responses.
  6. Provide accurate and clear reports to the appropriate authority promptly.
  7. Undertake review, evaluation and analysis of incident and organisational response to it, and report recommendations to the appropriate authority promptly and accurately.
