Posted By Booney Morning Nice,
I believe the nearest definition in H & S legislation is from Reg 7(5) of Management Regs: "A person shall be regarded as competent...where he has had sufficient training and experience or knowledge and other qualities to enable him properly to assist in undertaking the measures referred to ..."

Posted By Andy Brazier From HSE guidance available at http://www.hse.gov.uk/hu...s/comah/02competency.pdfCompetence is the ability to undertake responsibilities and to perform activities to a recognised standard on a regular basis. Competence is a combination of practical and thinking skills, experience and knowledge. My definition is 'a person or team is competent when they are able to do the job to the recognised standard and know their limitations.'

Posted By brian mills When talking about competency I always add as a footnote that no matter how Competent we call ourselves, that nobody at anytime can ever know all there is to know about anything, that we all operate under a degree of ignorance, sometimes a great deal of ignorance, at worse in situations that we are not familiar with total ignorance.
Regards
Brian

Posted By Philip McAleenan Competence is the consistent skilful application of skill and knowledge to any specified work operation (at whatever level that may be within the company), where the use of the term skilful implies conducting the operation to the highest standards within the field.
Regards, Philip
