2 Course Bundle - Scissor and Boom Elevating Work Platforms
The work required in this unit relates to the National Standard for High-Risk Work but this unit does not provide the licence. Licensing‚ legislative, regulatory or certification requirements that may apply to this unit can vary between states, territories and industry sectors, and must be sourced before applying to this unit.
It includes inspecting and testing elevating work platform, assessing job and work requirements, planning work and setting up for lift, and carrying out elevation. It also includes implementing planned hazard controls and strategies and packing up work platforms after operations.
Work is performed with limited supervision, and with the duty of care responsibility for self and others in achieving the prescribed outcomes.
This unit alone does not provide sufficient skill to load and unload equipment independently. To perform this activity safely, personnel must either complete or be assisted by someone who has completed the RIIHAN308F Load and Unload Plant or equivalent.Course Outline
