The New Zealand Industry Training Organisation has revised the unit standard listed
above.
Date new versions published
May 2010
Planned review date
December 2012
Reason for the revision
Feedback from assessors and moderators has indicated that this unit standard is currently
targeted at the wrong audience. In the workplace this unit standard would be used by
candidates who work in drug and/or alcohol prevention programmes in addition to their
normal work role. They are not in management positions but need to have an overview of
issues that affect people with alcohol and/or drug problems in the workplace. The New
Zealand Industry Training Organisation – Industrial Health and Safety Advisory Group
discussed the feedback and decided they would prefer to move this unit standard to the
Occupational Health and Safety Practice domain as it better reflects the target audience
who would use the standard. The unit standard has also been amended to reflect this
change in emphasis. Changes to the unit standard were endorsed in January 2010.
Main changes resulting from the revision
 The standard was moved from the Workplace Health and Safety Management domain
to the Occupational Health and Safety Practice domain.
 Target audience statement was added to the purpose statement.
 Element 3 was amended.
 The title was amended.
