Unit of competency

Modification History

Release 1

This version first released with CPC Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package Release 5.0.

Supersedes and is equivalent to CPCCCO3036 Plan concrete work and brief team.

Application

This unit of competency specifies the skills and knowledge required to plan concrete work and brief team members. It includes determining the size and scope of concreting tasks and planning and scheduling activities to comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements. It also includes identifying and sourcing resources required to complete tasks on time and within budget and communicating requirements to team members in preparation for work to commence.

A person who has achieved this unit of competency would be expected to take responsibility for organising and completing these tasks with a high degree of self-direction.

Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit of competency in some states and territories. For further information, check with the relevant regulatory authority.

Completion of the general construction induction training program, specified in the Safe Work Australia model Code of Practice: Construction Work, is required by anyone carrying out construction work. Achievement of CPCCWHS1001 Prepare to work safely in the construction industry meets this requirement.
