Performance Evidence

An individual demonstrating competency must satisfy all of the elements and performance criteria in this unit.

There must be evidence that the individual has adjusted cane delivery schedules to meet daily milling requirements in line with workplace contexts and demonstrated each of the following points at least once:

  • calculated and amended daily schedule bin allotments and bin allocations
  • applied workplace information to calculate zero hour
  • confirmed resources and personnel to meet amended schedule
