Application
This unit describes the skills required to supervise a team involved in a military explosive task. Military explosive tasks are normally conducted on operations, they can however be conducted in peacekeeping, in support of the civilian community/ authority and also in training. It includes planning the explosive task, applying safety precautions, identifying requirements and resources, and supervising the performance of the task. This unit was developed for Defence personnel who are required to supervise a team involved in a military explosive task. The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to. Those undertaking this unit would work independently and supervise small teams, using discretion and judgement and taking responsibility for the quality of their outputs. They would perform complex tasks in a range of contexts that could be unpredictable. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to unit at the time of publication. |
