This unit describes the skills required to work safely in an operational environment, including responding to safety risks, deploying tactical options and handling police equipment. It applies to candidates working in a policing environment, commonly in a general duties role. The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to, particularly those related to work health and safety (WHS) / occupational health and safety (OHS), codes of conduct, and use of force. Candidates undertaking this unit would generally work independently under mostly indirect supervision. They would perform complex tasks and be required to evaluate and access support from established sources and would show adaptability across a broad range of contexts that are familiar and/or unpredictable. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements currently apply to unit at the time of publication.
