2 RIIMPO320E Conduct Civil Construction Excavator Operations Assessment Plan This document contains all details of how the assessment will be conducted and the resources required to complete the assessment. The task details, specific instructions to assessors and task checklists are available in the Final Practical Test Assessor Only document. Make sure all resources outlined within this plan are available before starting the final assessment. Assessment 1 Confirm Details of Excavator Work The learner is required to read all relevant documentation for planning out the task and making sure work activity meets site or project requirements for safety and quality. The assessor will need to make sure all resources, information and documents are available for the purposes of the assessment and determine that the learner knows where to look for them on the work site. The assessor needs to ensure that any policies and procedures used during the assessment are relevant to the civil construction industry and make a note of the purpose of any document used. 1 set of task instructions for a civil construction excavator task. 1 project document that identifies quality requirements (may be included with the work instructions or in a civil construction plan). 1 copy of a policy or procedure relevant to civil construction, excavator operation or site operations. 1 copy of health and safety guidelines relevant to the task and site operations (may be code of practice, Australian standard or regulations). 1 copy of emergency response instructions relevant to the work site.
