EAL-Using and interpreting engineering data and
documentation
1. Explain what information sources are used for the data and
documentation that they use in their work activities
I will gather information documentation from my Line Manager or Project
Engineer. I can also access the company intranet for documentation - I can get
information such as Employee Handbook, Health and Safety information and Risk
and Method statements. I can get data online from regulation bodies and
government websites. If I need information for a particular product I can search
the manufactures website or guidebook. There are COSHH documents and
building guides in our workshop. Technical manuals are kept in stores.
2. Explain how documents are obtained, and how to check that they are
current and valid
Job cards and wiring diagrams are obtained from our project engineers that are
overlooking that particular job. I check they are current by the looking at the
date, check what version of drawing and if it is the latest and job number. I can
check documents are up to date online and by the date they were published.

information should be available and to whom)
