Assessment Task 2 Instructions

Carefully read the following:

You are the Operations Manager of a medium-sized Australian company, NatureCare Products,

based in Brisbane. The company commenced business in 1996, and manufactures eco-friendly,

high quality beauty skin care products.

The business was established to cater for a growing demand for skin products that contain eco-

friendly and natural ingredients. There is also an emphasis on eco-friendly packaging. The

company makes all its products in a small factory.

The company sells its products direct to a chain of health food shops across Australia, as well as

online through its own web site. Products ordered online are shipped directly to customers from

the factory. Products provided to health food shops are provided to the health food shop

distributor who then distributes the products to all its stores. The relationship with the chain of

health food shops is a long standing one (ten years).

The company targets customers that want high quality, eco-friendly products. Market research

has identified that around 70% of their customers are professional women aged 25 to 55.

NatureCare Products’ strategic priorities focus on business diversification and growth. They aim

to increase their market share by 10%, and to expand the existing product range to attract more

customers.

At a recent board meeting, the two company shareholders and the CEO discussed options for

expanding the business, including establishing a chain of retail outlets. The idea is to initially set

up one retail outlet in central Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. Products will continue to be

made in the company’s factory and shipped to the retail outlets.

The CEO has asked you to investigate this, undertaking a risk analysis on establishing a chain of

retail outlets. The CEO and shareholders are keen to get the business expansion started as soon

as possible so need to get your risk management plan in place immediately.

Currently the company employs the following staff: Accounts Manager, Marketing Manager,

Marketing Assistant, Sales Manager, four customer service representatives, Office Manager and

Administration Assistant, Operations Manager, as well as the CEO and two shareholders as

indicated above.

The company currently has a Risk Management Policy and Procedures in place that

incorporates the AS/NZS ISO31000:2009 Risk Management Principles and Guidelines.

Assessment Task 3 Instructions

Carefully read the following information:

Assume that one of the risks that you identified in your risk management plan was the inability to attract

sufficiently qualified and knowledgeable staff to manage the new retail stores and that the risk

treatment identified is to invest in the training and development of existing staff to fulfil this role, at least

in the short term.

It has been identified that at least two of the existing customer service representatives are interested in

taking on this new role. Neither of the two customer service representatives have managerial skills nor

knowledge, but they both have excellent company and product knowledge, as well as customer service

skills.

Complete the following activities:

1. Write a report on staff training options

Review the case study information and then research a range of potential training options for the

customer service representatives, including both on and off the job options. Identify at least

three suitable options.

Then develop a short report outlining your recommended option/s for the training, including a

rationale for each recommendation.

Include the details of each recommended training option, including a summary of the training to

be provided and outcomes, location, costs and duration as applicable.

As a guide, your staff training report should be 1 to 2 pages long.

2. Send an email to the CEO (your assessor).
The text of the email should be in grammatically correct English, written in an appropriate (polite,
business-like) style.

approval to move forward with the project.

Attach your staff training report to the email.

The CEO will send you an email providing comments and approval to proceed with the training

course that they select from your report.

management which they completed over the last six months.

You have been provided with the following information by your team, which you will use to monitor the

implementation of the action plan:

 The new Human Resources Manager has provided you with performance review information for the

two Managers, as well as a staff survey conducted to assess employee satisfaction.

 The Marketing Manager has provided you with sales analysis for the last six months, as well as a

memo about a recent customer survey.

4. Write a risk monitoring report.

In order to monitor the implementation of your action plan you are required to review the

following documents:

 Staff survey results memo
 Performance review results memo

Develop a risk monitoring report that provides a summary of the data provided to you and

document what the data shows in relation to the effectiveness of the action plan.

The company supplies a wide range of stationery, office supplies, furniture, business equipment and

computer supplies for large and small office environments, including home offices. There are no retail

stores, and customers order online through the company’s website or through a Customer Service Centre

that operates 7 days a week from 7am to 7pm. Orders are distributed from a warehouse that is also located

in Campbelltown.

The company has recently undertaken a strategic planning process with its vision identified to be the leading

online supplier of office supplies.

The company employs a number of staff including the General Manager, Sales and Marketing Manager,

Finance Manager and Human Resources Manager. There are 20 customer service staff in total, a

Warehouse Manager and 10 warehousing staff. All of the Managers and Customer Service Staff operate out

of the head office and all warehousing staff, including the Manager, are located at the Warehouse.

Turnover of Customer Service Staff is currently high at around 30% annually.

You have recently been appointed as the new Operations Manager. The General Manager has advised you

that, although the company’s key values include a strong commitment to quality, customer service,

sustainability and a satisfied workforce, there are no formal systems or processes in place for continuous

improvement to ensure that the company meets its overall vision and values.

The General Manager would like you to research and implement a new continuous system and processes to

address all aspects of the company’s operations, from staffing to customer service to health and safety, as

well as embedding continuous improvement into the company’s culture. He has also indicated that he would

like you to consider how the company can introduce more sustainable practices both within the company

and in relation to products and would like this integrated into the continuous improvement system.

The General Manager has indicated that he would like a formal continuous system and processes fully

implemented within the next three months.

He also advises that there are some issues within the company that he is hoping that a continuous

improvement system and process will help to solve. These are:

• An average of two customer complaints are received each month.

• Complaints generally relate to the following themes:

o Customer service staff are unable to provide adequate product advice.

o Customer service staff are not friendly at times.

o Lengthy wait times on the telephone to discuss products or chase up deliveries.

o Differences between delivery time stated and actual delivery time.

• There also appears to be some further issues relating to the time in responding to complaints and

identifying and implementing procedures to address systemic issues identified through complaints.

• High staff turnover.

• Lack of supporting document to assist with overall quality such as staff training manuals.

• The company is just about to expand and introduce a new line of products being hospitality and

restaurant supplies. This will mean the establishment of an additional department with more staff

employed. Procedures need to be streamlined and consistent across the organisation.

Assessment Task 2: Develop a workforce plan

Resources required
▪ Computer and Microsoft Office
▪ Access to King Edward VII College Strategic & Operational Plan, workforce information and workforce action

plan template

▪ Access to the internet for research

Context and conditions of assessment

This assessment should be completed in the classroom as part of the simulated work environment. The
assessor will advise dates for submission.

Instructions to student

All assessment activities relate to a fictional organisation, King Edward VII College. As indicated in

the scenario, the College is currently reviewing its workforce planning.

Before you commence this assessment, make sure that you read all of the assessment tasks

thoroughly, including the scenario for the assessment.

All of the assessment activities will be completed in class and under conditions that simulate the workplace.
You will need to meet timelines specified by your assessor, as well as work with others as part of a team.

Assessment Scenario

King Edward VII College has been operating for 5 years. The College is based in Melbourne CBD and offers

a range of courses in management, marketing, human resources and international business and currently has

around has around 500 students enrolled across all of its courses. The College is very popular due to its

competitive pricing structure, innovative teaching methods and state of the art facilities.

Due to the success of the College, the College plans to establish two additional campuses, one in Brisbane and

one in Sydney. The Brisbane campus will commence in October 2015 and Sydney in early 2016. Campus locations

are already in place with the process being overseen mainly by the CEO and Finance Manager. No staff have been

employed as yet but it is anticipated that each campus will require a receptionist, student services officer and 4

trainers. All other staff functions will be completed by existing staff at the Sydney

campus until such time as student numbers increase substantially. It is anticipated that maximum student

numbers at the new campuses will be up to 50 students per campus.

The College currently employs 24 staff members that includes the CEO, a Marketing Manager and

Marketing Assistant, Human Resources Manager, Finance Manager, Administration Manager, Office

Assistant, Receptionist, Academic Manager, Student Services Officer and approximately 14 trainers.

Further details regarding the above staff will be provided to you by your assessor in a workforce

information table and that also shows staff turnover statistics.

As the Human Resources Manager you have been asked by the CEO to develop a workforce plan for King

Edward VII College for the next two years (Jan 2015 to December 2016). The CEO considers that this is

particularly important given the company’s expansion plans and because of the importance of workforce planning

in general. He is also concerned about the staff turnover rate for trainers (see workforce information table

provided to you) and has asked you to look at this more closely and develop strategies to address this.

You will also be provided with King Edward VII College Strategic Plan that sets out its strategic objectives, as

well as operational priorities. Ensure you review the Plan in detail so you understand the organisation’s

objectives and goals and use that in your development of the workforce plan.

The workforce plan should address workforce needs for the current Melbourne campus, as well as in

relation to the two new campuses.

In developing the plan, you will need to consider the following:

• How diverse is the current workforce of King Edward VII College with regards to age, gender, culture?

• What are the organisation’s requirements for a diverse workforce as reflected in its

strategic objectives?

• What factors affect current workforce supply – specifically for the education sector for King Edward VII

College? You should research and identify factors that apply including current economic conditions,

education industry trends, skills and labour shortages, as well as overall unemployment rates.
• What is the current staff turnover rate? What issues present with the turnover rate?

You will need to submit your workforce plan to the CEO (this will be your assessor). You should also develop

a short briefing paper to accompany your workforce plan and that briefly outlines your analysis and research

(as per the above dot points) and how you have used this to inform the workforce plan.

Note that in the workforce plan there is a section to document key issues (both current and future) and

you should use this to document key issues arising from your research and analysis above.

In your workforce plan you should document objectives based on the company’s overall strategic

objectives and operational priorities as documented in the Strategic and Operational Plan. The objectives

should be SMART objectives supported by key performance indicators.

Your workforce plan should list each of objectives, as well as overall strategies and specific actions to

achieve objectives. The template provided by your assessor will ensure that you set out the workforce plan as

required.

In your plan you will need to address as a minimum:
• Strategies that can be used to address the high staff turnover in relation to trainers
• Strategies for retaining skilled labour
• Strategies to build workforce diversity and cross-cultural management
• Strategies for sourcing skilled labour both in relation to the new and existing campuses.

• Strategies to address contingencies. The strategies you develop should also factor in the

scenario where skilled labour is difficult to find for the new campuses.

Your assessor will provide you with the date for the submission of your plan and covering report. All of
your work should be in clear and concise English.

You should email your plan and covering report to your assessor in the role of the CEO. Your email
should seek agreement and support for the objectives and proposed performance indicators.

Context and conditions of assessment

This assessment should be completed in the classroom as part of the simulated work environment. The
assessor will advise dates for submission.

Instructions to student

The approved workforce plan includes the objective to increase diversity, implement succession
planning arrangements and to be an employer of choice. Strategies included to achieve this are flexible
working arrangements and a new professional development program.

Your task is to prepare for, and provide a presentation to staff about a new flexible working arrangements
program and a new professional development program to assist in developing existing staff as part of
succession planning.

Assume that there are currently no flexible working arrangements in place and that the professional

development arrangements are adhoc, relying on individual staff members to undertake their own professional

development.

Research the latest flexible working arrangements and professional development programs used by

companies and based on your research, develop and make notes on suitable flexible working arrangements

and a professional development program for King Edward VII College staff.

You should ensure that the arrangements you suggest are arrangements that are applicable to a real life

working environment, as well as specifically relevant to the operations of King Edward VII College. For

example, flexible working arrangements may vary depending on the staff member. For example, trainers may

not be able to utilise flexible working arrangements at all times when classes are scheduled. You should

consider if and how you will be able to offer such arrangements in this case.
