Assessment requirements
Modification History
Release 1 - New unit of competency
Performance Evidence
- Collect, organise and understand information related to multi-trade work instructions and work orders, building and structural plans and safety procedures
- Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment
- Identify materials used in the work process
- Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection processes to:
- minimise the risk of injury to self or others
- prevent damage to goods, equipment and products
- maintain required production output and product quality
- Identify process requirements in terms of materials and specialist equipment
- Determine appropriate materials and consumables to match production and product quality standards and identify commercially viable sources of their supply
- Calculate materials and other resource requirements and costs, and cost and document requirements
- Identify the impact of decisions in terms of commercial, environmental and safety risks
- Use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area and estimate material requirements
- Communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications and the reporting of work outcomes and problems, interpret basic plans and follow safety procedures
- Use workplace technology related to the coordination, including communication equipment, time and management aids and other measuring devices
- Avoid backtracking, work flow interruptions or wastage
- Work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise work flow and productivity
Knowledge Evidence
- Company business policies and plans, including procedures for company products, market, work systems and equipment
- Authorised production processes and plans and related materials and consumables
- Materials and process characteristics and special requirements
- Commercial supply systems, including standard documentation support processes
- Cost-benefit analysis or equivalent techniques
Assessment Conditions
- hold training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC) or its successors
- have vocational competency in the furnishing industry at least to the level being assessed with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification
- be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the furnishing industry.
- Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time rather than a single assessment event and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.
- Assessment must be by observation of relevant tasks with questioning on underpinning knowledge and, where applicable, multimedia evidence, supervisor’s reports, projects and work samples.
- Assessment is to be conducted on single units of competency or in conjunction with other related units of competency. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance in the unit and should not be assessed separately.
- Assessment must occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.
- Access is required to production plans, materials and consumables specifications, commercial supply system indices, directories and catalogues, financial resources and delegations, and appropriate software.
