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!

PUADEFCM003B - Analyse causes and identify countermeasures for injuries in physical activities

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

Prepare for a causal analysis

Appropriate background documentation is identified, obtained and assembled to collate all relevant facts and information that may guide and contribute to the causal analysis
Relevant personnel are identified and requested to provide input to the causal analysis
Other relevant sources of information regarding injury causation are identified and assembled
Methods and tools to be used in the analysis are identified, specified and prepared in accordance with organisational procedures and guidelines

Evidence Guide



Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit	Assessment must confirm the ability to: recognise limit of own authority refer problems to supervisors comply with organisational policies and procedures critically analyse relevant sources of information using own underpinning knowledge and organisational analytical tools to determine the root causal factors identify and develop options for preventative countermeasures which reduce risk, but are economically and practically viable and do not result in excessive reduction of activity benefits to the organisation compile and report root cause analysis findings clearly and concisely in both a verbal and written form. Consistency in performance Competency should be demonstrated over a range of scenarios to confirm consistency in performance.
Context of and specific resources for assessment	Context of assessment Competency should be assessed in the workplace or in a simulated workplace environment. Specific resources for assessment Access to: real or scenario based injury producing activities workplace in which causal analysis can be applied background documentation/templates/tools workplace health and safety guidelines organisational policies and procedures duty statements and/or job descriptions personnel for interview and questioning.
Guidance information for assessment	Information that will assist or guide assessment will be written during Phase II of the Review of the PUA00 Public Safety Training Package.
