Application

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to install vision equipment and conduct pre-production or event checks according to vision system plans.

At this level, individuals are required to use some discretion and judgement and operate under broad supervision within an established framework of plans and procedures.

The National Standard for Licensing Persons Performing High Risk Work applies to persons performing dogging and rigging work. Completion of the following units is required for certification at either basic, intermediate or advanced levels:

  • CPCCLDG3001A Licence to perform dogging
  • CPCCLRG3001A Licence to perform rigging basic level
  • CPCCLRG3002A Licence to perform rigging intermediate level
  • CPCCLRG4001A Licence to perform rigging advanced level

Sets and staging for some performances or events may fall within the definition of construction work. If so, people entering a construction site are required to complete the general induction training program specified by the National Code of Practice for Induction Training for Construction Work (Australian Safety Compensation Council, May 2007).

Achievement of the unit ‘CPCCOHS1001A Work safely in the construction industry’ fulfils this requirement.
