There must be evidence that the individual has implemented a paddy receival and grain cleaning process for at least three rice grain varieties, including:

accessed and interpreted workplace information for paddy rice preparation requirements

confirmed supply of necessary materials and services

conducted pre-start checks, started, operated, monitored and adjusted process equipment to achieve required outcomes

selected, fitted and used personal protective equipment

followed workplace health and safety procedures

monitored control points and conducted inspections to confirm process remains within specification

diagnosed common faults and rectified or reported equipment failure within level of responsibility and according to workplace procedures

took corrective action in response to out-of-specification results

monitored supply and flow of materials to and from the process

completed records according to workplace procedures

maintained work area to meet housekeeping standards.
