Application

This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to ensure that the production of alcoholic beverages complies with legislation and regulations, particularly with obligations related to excise.

The unit applies to individuals who may not be directly responsible for designing procedures for compliance with legislation, but who should be aware of the existence of legislation, its intent and the arrangements in place to ensure compliance.

No licensing or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication. However, legislative and regulatory requirements for food processing exist, so local requirements must be checked. All work must comply with Australian food safety standards and relevant codes of practice.

Foundation Skills

This section describes those language, literacy, numeracy and employment skills that are essential for performance in this unit of competency but are not explicit in the performance criteria.

Skill	Description
Reading	Analyse compliance and legal documentation from a variety of sources to determine compliance requirements
