Assessment
Part A Knowledge Test.
What can happen if you gather information without objectives? How can you overcome it?
- When you work in a business environment, it is important to make sure that you can research about the objectives and present the information. There is no point of working in a field of business if we do not gather information without objectives. Objectives are the most important to start a business. If we do not have any objectives while gathering information than the business future plans, decision makings, evaluation and implementation will not reach its satisfaction. Failure to gather information without objectives means that you will exposing yourself without any knowledge.
What is a SMART Goal? Give an example of one.
- SMART is the Specific Measurable Achievable Realistic Time focused. Before you collect any information, it is essential that you have a clear objective. To assist in the development of your objectives, smart goal is a must. To complete an allocated task there must be a smart goals objective. For e.g., in an organization if there are no right objectives than there will not be the right plan or any decision making.
Think of five times in which you have had to research WHS information. Briefly outline the task. What information were you required to gather? What organisational requirements did you need to consider when you gathered the information?
- Five times I had to do WHS research are: -
- Step by step process for staff training:-
Identify Needs and Goals. Firstly, you need to identify the weaknesses in your company. Where is time lost
Identify Staff. Talk with managers to identify staff members who are most in need of skill development
- Performance review of staff:-
Establishing a performance review process is an essential part of effective business leadership. Staff performance reviews are generally conducted every 6 or 12 months by each team member's supervisor. They can be used to: identify performance issues early.
- Changing policies:-
Changing policies is only worth it if they are sustainable Implementing new workplace policies or changing existing ones can be a great way to improve employee productivity, enhance engagement, and/or control unwanted behaviour. However, changes to workplace policies are only worthwhile if they are sustainable over time
- Dealing with the staff:-
Provide Clear Examples. After your due diligence when you are clear in your assessment and presentation. Appropriate Language. Sometimes the best route to a solution is not always the direct one.
- Staff health and safety check: -
Performing workplace health and safety checks helps prevent work-related incidents, injuries, and illnesses. Failure to comply with WHS policies can result in fines or, worse, endanger people's lives.
The organizational requirements that I need to consider are:-
- I must go through computer files
- I must go through info and training needs
- I must go through invoices
- I Have to go through production target
- I must go through marketing reports and sales
What is anti-discrimination?
- Anti-discriminationrefers to the law on the right of people to be treated equally. Discrimination can relate discrimination relating to age, sex, marital status and religion, political and cultural beliefs. This is covered under the discrimination Act 1991.
What impact does level of authority have in regard to the information you provide your team?
- The level of authority relates to the level of responsibility. Responsibility is the duty to which a person is bound through their status or task. When a person is delegated a level of authority, they are given the authority to act in another stead and this in turn empowers them to take control of the work area. When a worker is provided with feedback regarding the final decision they become further empowered and then take ownership of the task.
What do you need to check to make sure data is relevant?
- To make sure the data is relevant; first we need to check the documents. Information is always changing. This means that information has a limited life. If we need to gather information, it is important to make sure that the data is relevant. We need to check the electronic documents that will show date and time in which the document or file was developed. We need to check the document to make sure that it must be signed to be valid. If the document or file is checked and verified, then it has the document been copied, stamped and signed to confirm that it is authentic and valid.
What do you need to check to make sure that data is accurate?
- The information that is not accurate can be dangerous. Inaccurate information mean that inaccurate decisions are made that can place workers at risk. When you search for data, take the time to make sure that you choose the information that is current, especially when you need to make an informed decision. Some process we need to know are:-
- check specific goal
- check specific purpose
- how data will be collected
- how data will be skimmed
What is the relationship between consistency of information and reliability?
- Consistency is a flow of data and reliability is validity of data. Reliability in research is concerned with how consistent information is. With any reliable information the results should have a certain level of consistency at different times. In research the more consistent the information, the more reliable the information. For example, you are researching Work Health and Safety websites and come across important information. You can have one of two reactions. You can either accept the truth of the information or check another website to make sure that the information that you have received is accurate. It is also essential that you check the reliability of the website.
Identify the problem and recommend the ways in which you can collect the information?
Taylor used the forklift and ran over two staff. How can you establish whether Taylor can use the forklift? Taylor claims that she has her license from her previous employer.
- I think that Taylor should not have run over the two staff because she cannot do such things with your co-workers in their workplace. They should also check when she got the job Talking about the licence, her previous employer licence does not value in her new workplace. The reliability of the provider should also be checked So, I think Taylor should make a new licence at her new workplace and then claim that that is a valid licence.
Find the following websites and reference them correctly:
Go to the SafeWork Australia Website. Write the URL Address and the appropriate referencing for the Work Health and Safety Consultation, Cooperation and Coordination Code of Practice.

When you gather information, what is it important to consider?
- Business, employers, and workers need to find work health and safety information quickly and easily. If information is hard to, workplace health and safety may be at risk. To ensure clear and appropriate information is provided when and where it is needed, government and regulators need to know where people look for information.
Make recommendations on how you would search for information on line and explain the things you should consider about the information that you gather?
To determine whether the information in the document is appropriate. Headings can sometimes be misleading so that they may not provide information relevant to your problem. When was the information published? Consider how old the information is. When the law is considered,take the time to ensure that the information is up to
date. Searches depends in which country you are. Fortunately, in Australia there is a good information source. Thus, we can go easily with www.safeworkAustralia.gov.au where we have so much information that we need to find at respect. On this same page you can get many references.
Further, we could go to quick link and find publication resources, model code of practice WHS regulation, news, industry statistics, etc.
Obtain a copy of the manufacturer’s instructions for the business equipment that you use in your workplace. What are the functions of the equipment?
We recommend the following for using different kind of knifes:
- Chef’s Knife. The first option for choosing a knife you probably have in your mind while you are cooking is the chef’s knife or French knife.
- Boning Knife. This knife is used to take out the bones.
- Utility Knife. Use for most of the things.
- Paring Knife. For many cooks, a paringknife is the go-to for tool when a chef’s knife is too large
- Bread Knife. Use to cut breads
What are your organisations procedures in regard to updating, modifying, maintaining and storing information? What are/is the name of this procedure/s?
- Version Control
- Is to provide evidence that the organisation is consistently and continuously keeping their information up to date
- As each form is superseded by a new file, it is usually stored on the computer in a specific file and the new file will replace the updated version in the main template file
- If you are not sure that the template that is being used is the most recent, you can look it up in the file/record register to determine if the file is correct
- Collection
- Records are signed in and out
- Track the movement of data
- More efficient and effective – easier to find when you need it.
- Storage
- Centralised filing systems – all files are sent to one location.
- Decentralised filing systems – files are kept at their individual locations.
- Mixture of both – the original document is sent to one location and a copy of the information is kept at the office in which it was raised.
Part B Case Study / Project
Assessment Task 1
Case study: Kerr Deliveries
Robert Kerr has run a successful delivery company in NSW since 1995. He has 14 administrative staff, 8 sales staff and 33 delivery personnel who use bicycles, cars and vans to deliver across Sydney and regional NSW. Due to his business expanding at a rapid rate, he is going to begin operations in Canberra, Melbourne and Brisbane in three months’ time.
Robert plans to hire 6 additional administrative staff, 5 sales staff and 17 extra delivery personnel to operate the various locations in Canberra, Melbourne and Brisbane. As well as purchasing new computers for staff at the new locations, he has decided to replace all existing computers within the business because they are getting old and running slowly.
There are so many computer brands on the market, and so many different styles and speeds of computers. All Robert knows is that he needs to buy desktop computers for the administrative staff, laptops for his sales staff and PDAs (personal digital assistant) for his delivery personnel.
You have been employed as Robert’s assistant for the past two years. Robert has asked you to conduct a thorough research report that details which computers he should buy for the company.
Robert’s requirements for the organisation are:
- 20 new desktops
- 13 new laptops which are lightweight
- 50 PDAs with the latest GPS tracking
- all computers should contain the latest version of Microsoft Office Software and antivirus software.
Robert is happy to spend money for good quality computers if it means they will perform better and last longer than cheaper computers, but he expects you to justify any recommendations with clear statistics and evidence as to why the organisation should purchase a particular type of computer from a particular store.
This is an important buying decision for the company and it will require a significant portion of the budget. Robert has given you two weeks to research your report. He expects your research to be conducted both online as well as using non-electric techniques. He would also like to know your research techniques (including online search terms and methods) in case he decides to research computers for himself in the future.
Report format and storage requirements:
Your report must adhere to organisational requirements (this is done by structuring your report as outlined in the procedures section on the next page).
When a report is complete, Robert Kerr requires that a hard copy (non-electronic) is stored in a filing cabinet for a period of three years. He also asks staff to save a copy of any documents they have created on their own computers and send an electronic copy to his assistant who saves a copy on the company’s server. The file name must include the date (month and year) that the report was created, the name of the report, and a version number.
Assessment description
After reading the case study provided, you must create a research report for the business and make a recommendation on which computers should be purchased. (Alternatively, with the approval of your assessor, you may create a research report for a business, organisation or industry that you have an interest in). This report will form the basis of the presentation that you will deliver in Assessment Task 2.
Procedure
Create a research report:
- Clearly define the objectives of your research report and how this will benefit your organisation.
- To look for the right supplier: - It can take time and research to find the right suppliers for your business. Having a reliable supplier means you can provide your customers with quality products and services at the right price.
- To search for the right product: - Do the necessary research. The idea for a new product or service often comes from an assumption. Create a minimum viable product. You need to know as early as possible if you can sell what you’re aiming to sell. Get as much feedback as possible. starting your sales efforts with buyers who see the value of.
- Purchase locally to ensure cheaper price: - cheap does not always represent the best value for money. If the quality of your supplier's product or service is poor, you may incur extra costs for returns and replacements, and risk losing business with any delays that result.
This will help to benefit the organization because Objectives are important because they convert visions into clear-cut measurable targets. Employees are very clear as to what they are expected to achieve and when. Create direction and guidance: Every business needs guidelines. Objectives direct the company's activities toward achieving the goals and visions of the owners.
- Identify, gather information for potential success of your and organise.
- we can gather information in a direct way by holding meetings, conducting interviews, or issuing surveys, and indirectly by reviewing sales records and customer service reports or monitoring social media sites. Before choosing your approach, list the type of information you want to gather.
- Use the information in the case study and Robert Kerr’s organisational requirements (how the report should be structured, provided below) to develop the report.
- Determine your methods for collecting information to ensure consistency, accuracy, authority, audience, relevance and likelihood of bias.

Discussions
Refer to the finding, each product has met the Robert’s requirement and it also gain additional function to ease his worker for a better work performance. The price was competitive.
Recommendations
Robert could gain additional function, and these will increase the work performance of his worker. But the price for these products were higher compare to those basic computers. Robert could change half of the quantity that he requests to be sure the computers are suitable in field.

FEEDBACK REPORT Robert Kerr Delivery Company |
Subject : Cert. IV Leadership and Management BSBRES411 - Kerr Delivery Research Project |
Based on the presentations that have been attended by 11 people; Robert Kerr, 5 people from the administrative staffs, 3 people from the sales staffs and 2 people from delivery staffs. The gathered feedback result are 7 people said the quality and significance of the content is acceptable and organized. Power Point media used is as well sufficient to support the presentation process. The supportive information and data also quite clear followed by a good conclusion and recommendations. One of the negative feedback come from 8 people is the way the presentation delivered still less professional and less confident. Although the voice and language are clear enough, presenter still lacking in answering questions and interaction with audience. My strategies to improve my ability in presenting future presentation are : - I have to be more confident and professional in presenting in public by doing a lot of practices before in front of my family or friend. - I have to prepare any questions that the audience might ask before my presentation so I can answer the question with a clear and proper explanation. - I have to learn more about public speaking and to do it properly so I can speak without tense and enjoy the presentation more with the audience. |
