There is sufficient opportunity within the Resource Kit, through a combination
of learning activities, to determine the competence of an individual learner in
an off-the-job setting. However, if competency standards are to be a reflection
of required standards in the workplace, then there is a need to develop on-thejob assessments that look at the occupational health and safety competencies
in a specific context. The overriding purpose of competency-based training is to
ensure that change occurs within the workplace environment. Each workplace
needs to integrate this training into their performance management and/or
assessment systems as they see fit.
