1 Share of the laminating machine operator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the bleacher operator profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A laminating machine operator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a bleacher operator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held types of paper engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held prepare wood production reports information skills
  • already held clean equipment handling and moving
  • already held monitor gauge constructing
  • already held work safely with machines working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held report defective manufacturing materials information skills

All 16 carried skills, including the 8 the laminating machine operator role treats as required.

Note

How this record was compiled

Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
