Unit Descriptor

Unit descriptor	This unit covers the skills and knowledge to make leather components and products using table production processes.

Application of the Unit

Application of the Unit	This unit applies to the assembly of leather goods using table-based production processes. Competence must be demonstrated in largely manual processes. Operations include simple folding, beading and joining where straight work is produced and attachments to components such as side fittings and rivets and insertion of accessories, trimmings, fault marking, applying adhesives and any other bench work operations at the preparatory or finishing stage. Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities. Work is performed within defined procedures under direct supervision. 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 work pieces to perform bench work and finish leather production operations. This unit also requires the ability to identify and report production faults to ensure optimal production outcomes are achieved. Self management and planning and organising skills are used to ensure work complies with workplace requirements.
