Pre-requisites and Co-requisites
Pre-requisite unit: UEECD0007 - Apply work health and safety regulations, codes and practices in the workplace
Course Description
In this course you will gain the essential skills and knowledge required to identify, document and apply work health and safety (WHS)/ occupational health and safety (OHS) hazard and risk control measures associated with electrotechnology work. This will involve:
- identifying workplace hazards
- determining and assigning levesl of risk
- developing control measures eliminate/ reduce risks
- reviewing risk control measures
- maintaining documentation of hazards
- adhere to compliance procedures
This course is delivered and assessed with the following:
- UEERE0013 - Develop strategies to address environmental and sustainability issues in the energy sector
- UEEEC0017 - Develop engineering solutions to analogue electronic problems; and
- UEEEC0014 - Design signal-conditioning sub-systems

||
Element: |
3. Monitor, review and document risk control measures |
||
Performance Criteria: |
3.1 Documented control measures are recorded in workplace risk register and made available for reference by relevant person/s 3.2 Control measures are reviewed and modified, as required, in consultation with relevant person/s in accordance with workplace procedures 3.3 Document and apply measures to control WHS/OHS risks associated with electrotechnology work 3.4 Changes and updates are made to relevant documentation, risk register as additional hazards are identified 3.5 Documentation of hazards, risks control measures and their application are filed in accordance with workplace procedures |
