Air Quality for Plant & Equipment

The Eco-Operations National Training Delivery Framework

Machine plant usage has been identified as a contributor to carbon-based emissions. To reduce this, the aim is to reduce engine-derived emissions from plant through both minimising engine run time (and engine idling) and the more efficient use of equipment. This requires the delivery of an education programme that provides vital learning on how to achieve this.

The Eco-operations National Training Delivery Framework sets out the parameters for the consistent delivery of the education required and identifies and provides guidance on areas such as core and optional learning outcomes, delivery content and methodologies, assessment strategies and course durations. As the learning content can vary for a number of occupations, the framework further identifies individual course content and delivery factors for Plant Operatives, Supervisors, Plant and Site Managers, Planners, Plant Procurers, Maintenance Personnel, etc.
