It includes the development of formats or internal reporting templates to meet the public needs of the organisation.This unit applies in organisations that are impacted by sustainability related legislation and regulations, such as environmental legislation and carbon pollution regulations, incentives or schemes. A manager or technical specialist who has a major responsibility for sustainability as part of a broader work role would typically undertake this, or sustainability may be their primary work responsibility.Information required for the report may be gathered by the individual or as part of a team. The unit does not cover undertaking environmental or other technical analysis to gain required information. However, there is a requirement to present and organise data. The complexity of this requirement will vary according to the type and scale of the organisation’s processes.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
