Application
This unit describes the skills required to operate as a team member during the conduct of stability actions in the Australian Defence Force. Stability actions involve a variety of activities conducted in a threat environment. A security operations team is a grouping of up to approximately 30 personnel (for infantry this would be a section or platoon).
This unit was developed for combat arms personnel required to deploy in an operational environment, but is applicable to any individual in this field of work.
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 work independently and as part of a team under direct and/or indirect supervision, use discretion and judgement, and take responsibility for the quality of their outputs. They would perform specific tasks in a broad range of unpredictable contexts.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
