- locates and applies relevant legislation, documentation, policies and procedures
- demonstrates completion of the monitoring and maintenance of site quality standards that safely, effectively and efficiently meets all of the required outcomes on more than one (1) occasion including:
- organising work activities to comply with site quality standards
- identifies and agrees on performance indicators
- completes work within set parameters
- recommends and communicates continuous improvements to quality standards
- processes quality written documentation
- monitors work processes, reports incidents and applies local risk processes
Knowledge Evidence
The candidate must demonstrate knowledge of maintaining and monitoring site quality standards through:
- accessing, interpreting and applying the organisation and site requirements and procedures
- work healthy and safety
- maintaining the standards for site/enterprise quality systems and processes
- performing work planning processes
- technical and operational capability and limitations of resources and workplace equipment being used
- applying reporting procedures
Assessment Conditions
- An assessor of this unit must satisfy the requirements of the NVR/AQTF or their successors; and Industry regulations for certification and licensing; and,
- this unit is best assessed in the context of this sector’s work environment;
- this unit must be assessed in compliance with relevant legislation/regulation and using policies, procedures, processes and operational manuals directly related to the industry sector for which it is being assessed; and,
- assessment may be conducted in conjunction with the assessment of other Units of Competency; and,
- assessment must confirm consistent performance can be applied in a range of relevant workplace circumstances; and,
- assessors must demonstrate the performance evidence, and knowledge evidence as outlined in this Unit of Competency, and through the minimum years of current* work experience specified below in an Industry sector relevant to the outcomes of the unit; or,
- where the assessor does not meet experience requirements a co-assessment or partnership arrangement must exist between the qualified assessor and an Industry subject matter expert. The Industry subject matter expert should hold the unit being assessed (or an equivalent unit) and/or demonstrate equivalence of skills and knowledge at the unit level. An Industry technical expert must also demonstrate skills and knowledge from the minimum years of current work experience specified below in the Industry sector, including time spent in roles related to the unit being assessed; and,
- assessor and Industry subject matter expert requirements differ depending on the Australian Qualifications Framework Level (AQF) of the qualification being assessed and/or Industry Sector as follows:
