Unit Descriptor

Unit descriptor	This unit covers skills and knowledge to last shoes.

Application of the Unit

Application of the Unit	The unit applies to the lasting of shoes using machine operations, which may involve more than one type of machine, operation or process to meet product specifications. It includes the limited use of discretion, initiative and judgement. Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities. The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include: requirements prescribed by legislation, awards, agreements and conditions of employment standard operating procedures work instructions oral, written and visual communication quality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section output housekeeping tasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control, and recycling This unit requires the application of skills associated with planning and organising to machine last shoes. Problem solving skills are required to ensure work conforms to requirements and identify any processing problems. Communication skills are used to refer to and complete required documentation. Self management skills are used to ensure safe use of technology and conformance of own work to quality standards.
