Application
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to integrate legislative requirements into the operation of fireworks display to ensure the safety and health of workers and the general public.
Individuals who apply these skills work autonomously in a team environment as they take responsibility for identifying hazards and mandatory requirements, managing risk and emergency procedures, and communicating safety and health requirements to all those involved in fireworks displays. They may also be responsible for supervising others.
All elements must be undertaken according to the provisions of relevant state or territory legislation and licensing requirements.
Achievement of this unit does not automatically qualify a person to obtain a licence to operate in any Australian State or Territory.
Those developing training to support this unit must consult with the relevant state or territory licensing authority, and work within the requirements and guidelines set down by those authorities.
This unit is closely based on work completed by the Queensland Department of Natural Resources and Mines.
