IMPLEMENTATION REQUIREMENTS

This technical Functional Area Qualification Standard identifies the technical competency

requirements for Occupational Safety personnel. Although there are other competency

requirements associated with the positions held by Occupational Safety personnel, this

Functional Area Qualification Standard is limited to identifying specific technical competencies.

The competency statements define the expected knowledge and/or skill that an individual must

meet. Each of the competency statements is further explained by a listing of supporting

knowledge and/or skill statements. The supporting knowledge and/or skill statements are

not requirements and do not necessarily have to be fulfilled to meet the intent of the

competency.

The competencies identify a familiarity level, a working level, or an expert level of knowledge; or

they require the individual to demonstrate the ability to perform a task or activity. These levels

are defined as follows:

Familiarity level is the basic knowledge of or exposure to the subject or process adequate

to discuss the subject or process with individuals of greater knowledge.
