The New Zealand Industry Training Organisation has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published April 2010
Planned review date December 2015
Summary of review and consultation process
Feedback from assessors using these unit standards revealed that the process of dealing with runners in a meat processing plant was not carried out by a single operative but split into three main processes. The tanking and machining tasks were carried out as one process and this was kept separate from the salting and packaging tasks which were carried out by a separate group of workers. These processes were kept separate for cross-contamination reasons and workers working in one area were not allowed to work in the other area. For these reasons the industry suggested that salting and packaging be included in a separate unit standard.
This change was endorsed by industry and provider stakeholders in January 2010. Changes to unit standard 3103 have also impacted on unit standard 3104 as it also included salting and packaging this has resulted in both standards being replaced by three separate standards. These changes were endorsed by the Advisory Group in April 2010.
Main changes resulting from the review
Unit standards 3103 and 3104 have been replaced by three new unit standards.
Unit standards categorised as category C at the end of December 2012.
There are no impacts on existing provider accreditations or the Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan 0033.
