TLID0020 — Shift materials safely using manual handling methods

1 Assess risks associated with relocating load

• 1.1Products, goods or materials to be relocated are identified and assessed to determine appropriate relocation method
• 1.2Storage locations are determined and potential routes to be followed are identified
• 1.3Effect of load relocation on original load base is predicted
• 1.4Points of balance are estimated
• 1.5Required clearances are compared to available space and adjustments are made to moving loads to reflect required clearance
• 1.6Worksite hazards are identified, and corrective action is taken prior to commencing shifting products, goods or materials
• 1.7Risks in potential routes are considered
• 1.8Risks to self are identified arising from the required lifting, load carrying, set down or movement of products, goods or materials
• 1.9Manual handling procedures for lifting, lowering and carrying, pushing and pulling are identified
• 1.10Team lifting processes are considered when moving loads
• 1.11Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) is identified and used
• 1.12Size to weight ratio of items to be manually handled are identified

2 Plan load relocation

• 2.1Relocation of the load is planned consistent with the code of practice for manual handling and in accordance with the risk assessment
• 2.2Process for relocating load is proposed, including predicting and planning for potential difficulties
• 2.3Proposed process is checked for compliance with codes of practice and workplace procedures

3 Relocate load

• 3.1Actions for lifting, lowering and carrying, pulling and pushing a load are in accordance with workplace procedures and WHS/OHS requirements
• 3.2Team lifting tasks are coordinated
• 3.3Planned process and route are followed
• 3.4Relocated products, goods or materials are set down without damage to goods, personnel or equipment and are checked for stability
• 3.5Relocation is checked to ensure it meets work requirements and variances are reported to relevant personnel

What does an assessment tool for TLID0020 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for TLID0020 needs to address all 43 unit components: 3 elements with 20 performance criteria, 11 performance evidence requirements, 12 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for TLID0020?

Auditori pulls the current release of TLID0020 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for TLID0020 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing TLID0020 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of TLID0020, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
