Hanga-Aro-Rau Manufacturing, Engineering, and Logistics Workforce Development Council has completed the review of the unit standards listed above. The unit standard in italics has been reinstated.
Date new versions published December 2023
Planned review date December 2028
Summary
Leather and Shoe Research Association Incorporated (LASRA) requested removal of expiry status and re-instatement of six-unit standards which they would use in new programmes that are being developed to meet the changing nature of work in the industry sector.
As a result of this request, Hanga-Aro-Rau and LASRA had started reviewing these standards in August 2023. These standards have been endorsed for registration in November 2023.
Consultations were done via emails. LASRA also consulted with their industrial partners over this time.
The standards are fit for purpose and no changes were recommended by stakeholders involved in this review.
