This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to identify, interpret and respond to information in simple and familiar workplace texts in printed or digital formats, such as short messages, notices, instructions, forms, rosters, simple diagrams, tables and charts.

An individual performing these tasks may work with an expert or mentor where support is available if requested.

This unit applies to individuals who use, or are preparing to use, reading skills to complete workplace activities. This includes existing workers and individuals preparing for employment through vocational education and training.
