Schedule work activities on utilities networks

This Standard is about organising work activities for the installation, repair or maintenance of utilities networks. This is for single site operations and could be for any diameter of pipework.

This involves prioritising work activities, seeking help from others to resolve problems, anticipating and accommodating changes of plan, recording changes to plan and communicating with relevant people.

This Standard is for network construction operatives who schedule work activities for installation, repair and maintenance of utilities networks but is likely to be those with team leader responsibility.
