This document specifies the competencies required of assistance dogs’ professionals. The purpose of this document is to improve and ensure the quality of professionals working in a role within an assistance dog organization. Each speciality of assistance dog requires a specific set of role competencies and there are some common core competencies.
Core competencies in:
-   breeding;
-   puppy raising;
-   dog care;
-   assessors;
-   orientation and mobility;
-   trainers;
-   instructors.
Specific competencies to train:
-   guide dogs;
-   hearing dogs;
-   medical alert dogs;
-   mobility assistance dogs;
-   autism and development disorder dogs;
-   team training instructor.
It is accepted that assistance dog organisations vary greatly in structure and not every organization will have all the roles identified. Where one person performs more than one role, it is expected that they will have the competencies of all the roles they perform e.g. a dog trainer may also have the competencies of a dog care specialist. And there will be some organisations where some of these roles are not required, e.g. those with no breeding programme will not require the associated role competencies.

This document specifies the safety requirements and their verification for the design and construction of robotic feed systems (RFS) (see Annex A), which distribute feed and perform at least one of the following functions without the need of human interaction:
—     storing of feed;
—     loading of mobile feed unit (MFU);
—     mixing;
—     travelling;
—     cleaning (residual feed);
—     pushing feed.
Additionally, it provides the type of information, to be provided by the manufacturer, on safe working practices (including information about residual risks).
This document is for feeding livestock (e.g. cows, sheep, pigs).
This document does not apply to:
—     systems designed to be used at a fixed location and that discharge feed at a remote location (e.g. chain conveyor feed systems, belt conveyor feed systems or liquid feed systems);
—     tractors;
—     systems designed for field application.
This document deals with all the significant hazards, hazardous situations and events relevant to RFS, see Annex B, when they are used as intended and under the conditions of misuse, which are reasonably foreseeable, by the manufacturer as listed in Clause 4, except for the hazards arising from:
—     internal combustion engines of RFS;
—     requirements for the connections to the main electric power supply;
—     RFS with interchangeable equipment;
—     emission of airborne noise.
NOTE 1        Hazards related to internal combustion engines of robotic feed systems (e.g. exhaust emissions in buildings) will be considered in separate standards

This document establishes a process to measure wood being logged in native tropical forest management areas following an approved and documented plan. Such a process includes quantifying and monitoring the harvested area to support the chain of custody assessment, helping to ensure the origin of the logged wood. Wood volume measurement is outside the scope of this document. This document proposes indicators that can be used to reinforce the level of confidence with regards to the correct origin of the logged wood, particularly when assessing the transport and commercial documentation of wood-based products, by means of a consistency check with what can be observed as occurring in the forest area declared as the origin of native tropical timber. The indicators will serve as an alert of any eventual inconsistency detected. These indicators are obtained by means of standardized metrics. These metrics are mathematical models that establish a correlation between the area of subtracted vegetation – detected through remote sensing monitoring tools – and the number of extracted trees that generate the amount of declared logged wood. This document is intended to be used to quantify the impact resulting from native vegetation extraction by selective logging in various tropical forest regions of the world, in order to support the long-term maintenance of these forest assets. The scope of this document is limited to native tropical forests, i.e. forests naturally originated and formed by native species (or group) in tropical regions. This document does not apply to planted forests, regardless of the species (or group) being native or exotic, as those forests are subject to varied and particular management practices which depend on the geographical conditions and rules of the country in which they are located. Regarding the limitations of this document, it is not intended to ensure: — exact origin (geographical coordinates) of each log; — exact volumes of wood extracted from the forest; — species (or group) of wood harvested; — chain of custody compliance; — social and labour compliance of the audited operation; — tax compliance of the audited operation. This document does not focus on, and is not oriented towards, biomass and carbon-balance estimations. This document does not cover any aspects of sustainable forest management and focuses on measurement procedures described above. In addition, it is not intended to be a Management Systems Standard (MSS). Furthermore, the national legal requirements and international policies are not repeated in this document, including those related to sustainability aspects, as well as those related to traditional and indigenous communities contained in the principles/articles of the UN Declaration on the rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).

-   black films;
-   reflective films (e.g. white films, black/white films and black/silver films);
-   films of other colour(s) for weed control (e.g. green, brown).
This document defines the criteria for design for recycling of mulch films and refer to EN 18109 for the product lifecycle, including installation, use, removal and collection for end of life for management of the product after its usage.
NOTE   Mulch films can be highly soiled by organic and mineral residues at the end of their use life: the observed rates (or levels) of soilage of mulch films can vary from 70 % to 90 %, therefore the film thickness is a key factor on the rate of soilage, the thinnest films (e.g. less than 20 micron) will be the mostly soiled, difficult, expensive to remove, recover and recycle.
