Assessment Task 3
Procedure
1. Study the JKL business documents on page 28.
2. Study the JKL information below
JKL Industries is an Australian-owned company selling
forklifts, small trucks and spare parts to industry, with a rental
division leasing forklifts and small trucks.
The company’s head office is in Sydney and JKL has branches
in Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide and Canberra.
After 12 years in business, focusing on forklifts and small
trucks, JKL has been offered the sales rights to a range of
medium and large trucks from an overseas supplier. This
opportunity will provide JKL with an advantage in range over
its competitors.
Sales results over the past five years have indicated strong
growth in forklift and truck sales, which have averaged 10%
sales growth per annum. The rental market has been in decline
for the past three years due to the reduced costs of these
vehicles and some taxation benefits for purchases of these
vehicles.
Taking the sales opportunity will, however, entail some
5. significant changes, including significant changes to company
structure and operations. The company will reposition itself to
focus solely on retail sales and service and exit the rentals
market, in which forces such as competition and consumer
choice reduce potential profitability.
The changes will necessarily impact workforce planning. The
company will need to ensure it has the right people with the
right skills at the right time to achieve objectives. JKL will
need to closely monitor turnover and recruitment and implement
strategies to retain skilled people and ensure critical roles are
filled. In accordance with the organisation’s values, JKL
intends (to the extent feasible) to recruit from within the
company and up skill or re skill existing rentals employees who
wish to remain with the company.
As an HR consultant, you have been contracted by JKL to
review workforce requirements and develop workforce
objectives and strategies. To complete this task, you will need
to assess factors that may affect workforce supply, such as
internal labour resources and the external labour market.
3. Study the JKL business documents in Appendix 1, on page 9.
· Study the current data on staff turnover and demographics
The company has occupied following positions: senior manager,
branch manager, line manager, sales force and customer service
and mechanics. They are focused on selling and renting small
trucks and forklifts. Based on the analysis, was found that the
main reason why employees are leaving is because unhealthy
work culture, then lack of recognition and lack of opportunities.
An another reason is also retirement mainly in senior
management.
Demographics split between women and men. The highest
representation of women it is in sale (87,5%). Overall dividing
between female and male employees is 56% for women.
· Study the projections for future workforce needs.
The company has an opportunity sell machinery from overseas
supplier
, which will create new working positions what must be
6. covered. They are two ways, on the one hand retrain current
employees and on the other hand hire new skilled staff, which
shouldn’t be valuable. Hire new staff is usually risky because
we never know if a new employee will be loyal and responsible.
4. Using appropriate online sources, investigate the external
environment:
a. External factors that may affect workforce supply
There are many external factors which may affect workforce
supply. Can be government policy, labour market trends,
immigration rates, graduation rates, demand and competition for
labour. As it widely known those affects change the status on
the market of workforce supply extremely. For example
graduation rates, on the market might be so many workers
educated at accounting and administration which affect their
salaries because the market is overloaded. However, there is
lack of handy and skilled people for technical positions. If
b. Relevant industrial relations information, such as modern
awards, conditions, rights and responsibilities of workers and
management
In Australia, in each state is different modern awards, JKL has
branches each in different city.
c. Relevant government policy.
Policies:
Anti-discrimination ACT
Workplace Health and Safety ACT
Licencing requirement
Dangerous goods
Equal employment opportunity legislation
5. Using the results of your review of internal and external data
and simulated business documentation, such as strategic or
operational plans, develop a workforce planning report
containing:
a. An executive summary: a short summary of the contents of
the report.
JKL industries is focusing on business in the field of selling
forklifts, small trucks. Over the last years have signalized
7. strong growth in forklift and truck sales, which have averaged
10% sales growth per year.
JKL industries got an opportunity to sell medium and large
trucks from overseas suppliers, dealers which will be support be
taxation benefits after vehicle purchases.
Moreover, that will bring important changes, including company
structure, procedures, planning and possibility of exiting rental
market. Those changes may negatively effect the profit and
reduce customer choice.
Consequences of changes will force workforce planning. The
organization will need the employees with specific knowledge
and skills.
JKL has two options how to solve the situation. The first one is
retrain current employees to keep the turnover on minimum
(keep employees happy, loyal and proactive) or recruit a new
staff. Also new strategy must be implement to achieve new
organization’s goals.
b. A discussion of organisational need. including current and
future situation with respect to workforce capability:
i. a description of the organisation’s requirements for a skilled
and diverse workforce
The company needs employees who will respect company’s
strategies, vision and follow the rules, working culture and
habits. The employees need to know their exact work position
following by all procedures. The company needs to plan
business future and prepare the employees for the changes in
advance to keep the working atmosphere out of fear and stress
of unknown.
The company should regularly control the performance of
employees and motivate them.
It is required to valuate employees by the skills and levels.
ii. a discussion of the data you have considered and analysis of
the impact on organisational objectives, including:
(1) internal and external labour supply predictions
internal swot
8. (2) external conditions, for example, government policy
(3) organisational future demand and predictive techniques
used.
c. Recommended actions:
i. Your proposed objectives for the modification of the
workforce and retention of the workforce in line with strategic
objectives through FY 2017–18. Ensure you develop objectives
for sourcing skilled labour and promoting from within by:
(1) developing skills and organisational capability
(2) retaining skilled labour
(3) promoting workforce diversity.
ii. Your proposed strategies for realising each of the objectives
above.
iii. Your proposed process for developing detailed targets
consistent with objectives in consultation with managers.
6. Develop a communication strategy using the template
provided in Appendix 2:
a. Plan communication and consultation activities to be
undertaken to communicate, and seek approval and endorsement
for, proposed workforce planning measures from stakeholders,
including:
i. senior management
ii. line management
iii. workers.
b. Include in your communication strategy a broad plan to
communicate implementation of the workforce plan to senior
management.
Note: This communication activity will be planned in detail and
undertaken in Assessment Task 2.
7. Develop a risk management and contingency plan using the
template provided in Appendix 3. Assess risk and develop
contingency planning for the three workforce objectives and

hlavne pracovne stoly za vyskovo nastavitelne s moznostou
praci v stoji taktiez telefony pridat moznost handfree
vsetky sklady, haly a kancelarie su bez relaxacnych zon-
navrhujeme zariadit relaxacnu a hernu miestnost kde
zamestnanci mohou sa zrelaxovat napr. Po stresujucom
telefonate od klienta alebo po hektickej priprave v sklade

Introduction
JKL recognises that risk management is an essential component
of good management practice and is committed to the proactive
management of risks across the organisation. The strategy is
designed to:
· identify, evaluate, control and manage risks, including
environmental risks
· ensure potential threats and opportunities are identified and
managed
· inform store management, partners and staff members about
their roles, responsibilities and reporting procedures with
regards to risk management
· ensure risk management is an integral part of planning at all
levels of the organisation.
Guiding principles
JKL is committed to achieving its vision, business objectives
and quality objectives. This will be achieved through the
proactive management of risk at all levels of the organisation.
JKLacknowledges that embracing innovative ideas and practices
43. carries with it risks, but that these are identifiable and
measurable and therefore capable of being subject to realistic
risk mitigation processes.
Responsibility and authority
Store managers/partners have responsibility for ensuring that
risk management is in place.
Managers/partners have the responsibility of reviewing the Risk
Action Plan (outlined in the table at the end of this document)
on a monthly basis.
Staff support and implement policies approved by the partners.
Key risk indicators will be identified, closely monitored and
action taken where necessary, by all employees of JKL.
Risk management framework
This framework encompasses a number of elements that
together facilitate an effective and efficient operation, enabling
JKL to respond to a variety of operational, financial,
commercial and strategic risks. These elements include:
· Policies and procedures: A series of policies underpin the
internal control process.
· Reporting: Decisions to rectify problems are made at regular
meetings of the partners and management.
· Business planning and budgeting: The business planning and
budgeting process is used to set objectives, agree on action
plans and allocate resources. Progress towards meeting business
plan objectives is monitored regularly by the partners.
Contingency planning is undertaken as required.
· Risk management review: The partners are required to report
monthly.
· External audit: The final audit of financial statements is
controlled by an external chartered accountant who provides
feedback to the partners.

be set up with remote access to server files away from the
office.
When documents are completed, they should be saved to the
appropriate ‘completed work’ folder in your department.

gathered from employees must only be used for the stated
purpose of collection and must be kept on a secure HRMS
server.Filenames
Filename should include authors last name, title of report (or
abbreviated title of report), and date of submission.Back-ups
