- evaluated workplace biohazard contingency management practices
- conducted risk assessment for the potential of biohazard infestations, checked that adequate risk controls are in place
- documented routine infestation treatments, action plans, communication protocols and training and induction for workforce in a draft biohazard contingency plan and confirmed further actions
- coordinated resources, monitored activities and reported on biohazard contingency plan.

- quarantine
- fumigation
- use of pesticides
- use of biological controls
- culling of infected plants
- economic impacts of biohazard infestations and methods used to estimate monetary losses:
- loss of forest values

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for FWPFOM5005?
Auditori pulls the current release of FWPFOM5005 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.
