Assessment Task 3 – Assessor instruction
These instructions must be followed when assessing the student
in this unit. The checklist on the following page is to be
completed for each student. Please refer to separate mapping
document for specific details relating to alignment of this task
to the unit requirements.
Each student has been given the following brief:
"You are now required to implement the sustainability policy
you have developed in partnership with the organisation.
Following that, you are to undertake a final and rigorous review
and submit a written review discussing the effectiveness of the
policy, its implementation and any possibilities for
improvement.
Part A: Policy implementation
Implementing a policy can be exciting but also unpredictable.
When implementing the policy make sure to:
· Develop and communicate the implementation procedures
· Inform and instruct all team members
· Access all required resources
· Manage all aspects of the project effectively
· Facilitate the implementation
· Adhere to all safe work practices
· Implement strategies for continuous improvement in resource
efficiency
To demonstrate your ability to implement your sustainability
policies, you are to hold a meeting with your stakeholders and
explain / delegate roles as required. This assessment may be
undertaken in your workplace, or in a simulated environment as
set up by your assessor. Your assessor will observe you
running this meeting.
Part B: Policy implementation review
Once the sustainability policy has been implemented in the
organisation, you must investigate the success or otherwise of
the policy. The aim of the review is to:
· Document outcomes and provide feedback to key personnel
and stakeholders
· Investigate successes or otherwise of policy
· Monitor records to identify trends that may require remedial
action and use it to promote continuous improvement of
performance
· Modify the policy or procedures as required to ensure
improvements are made
· Review the policy you have developed including all policies
and procedures that have been documented
· Review the implementation strategy and any work plans
· Analyse the inefficiencies or opportunities for improvements
in sustainability identified in the workplace
· Evaluate the participation in sustainability work practices and
programs that have been implemented
· Continually observe and monitor policy and procedures to
measure the resources used, hazards and compliance.
You must submit a written report which reviews the
implementation of the sustainability policy in your organisation.
In order to do this, you should:
· Collect relevant feedback and data related to the sustainability
policy before and after its implementation
· Develop methods for analysing data using relevant software
programs
· Monitor records to identify trends that may require remedial
action and use them to promote continuous improvement of
performance
· Collate all findings and investigate success or otherwise of
policy
· Document outcomes and provide feedback to key personnel
and stakeholders
Your report must be well structured and address all the above
considerations. It should be detailed summary of your analysis
and reflections on the efficacy of the policy and its
implementation in the organisation."
Specific assessor notes
1. This assessment should follow the student successfully
completing Assessment tasks 1 and 2. It must be assessed in the
same context as the previous assessment tasks.
2. If a simulated environment is used, the student is to run a
meeting with others to discuss the implementation process.
Meeting participants may include other students, yourself or
other assessors. However, it is imperative that each participant
in the meeting is briefed on their role, and presents themselves
professionally. This is important to maintain the reliability of
the assessment process.
3. The context of this assessment may be based on the student’s
business, or on your training organisation (using the RTO
Policy and Procedures, systems and information as relevant.
The assessment may be undertaken in the following format:
Classroom / Simulated environment.
These assessments must
· Simulation is a form of evidence gathering that involves the
candidate in completing or dealing with a task, activity or
problem in an off-the-job situation that replicates the workplace
context. Documented definitions (such as in the TAA Glossary)
state "Simulations vary from recreating realistic workplace
situations such as in the use of flight simulators, through the
creation of role plays based on workplace scenarios to the
reconstruction of a business situation on a spreadsheet. In
developing simulations, the emphasis is not so much on
reproducing the external circumstance but on creating situations
in which candidates are able to demonstrate:
· technical skills
· underpinning knowledge
· generic skills such as decision making and problem solving
· workplace practices such as effective communication"
· In conducting training and assessment in a simulated
workplace environment, trainers and assessors must make sure
that the simulated environment gives the learner the opportunity
to meet the following critical criteria:
· Quality – The work is of the standard required for entry into
the industry.
· Productivity – The work is performed within a timeframe
appropriate for entry to the industry.
· Safety – The work is performed in a manner that meets
industry safety standards.
· Each assessment has taken the following aspects into
consideration, to ensure any simulations provide for integrated
assessment of competence. This includes:
· performing the task (task skills)
· managing a number of tasks (task management skills)
· dealing with workplace irregularities such as unexpected
problems, breakdowns and changes in routine (contingency
management skills)
· fulfilling the responsibilities and expectations of the job and
workplace, including working with others (job/role environment
skills)
· transferring competencies to new contexts.
· Assessment activities must be realistic and reasonable in terms
of scale. Assessment conducted under simulated conditions
should reflect those typically found in the workplace. Where
appropriate to the UOC, simulated environment should allow
the learner to:
· deal with typical customers, including difficult customers and
diverse types of customers
· use facilities, equipment and materials that meet current
industry standards
· plan and prioritise multiple tasks to meet deadlines
· experience the typical workflow for the industry
· require adherence to service standards, workplace procedures,
health and safety requirements
· work with others as part of a team
· consider constraints and pressures met in the workplace, e.g.
budget, time, availability of resources
· If a simulated workplace is used, it must allow for distractions
such as background noises, ringing telephones, interruptions,
etc. As this is a business unit, a simulated environment may
also include an office environment with office equipment and
computers. Each student must dress appropriately and
professionally in line with workplace standards.
· For each assessment, you are not to interfere. In the event
that the assessment activities will impact on the safety of a
student or bystander, the assessment must be stopped
immediately

description
Increasingly more businesses and organisations are
implementing sustainability policies to encourage sustainability
principles and practices within the workplace
You are to develop a sustainability policy for implementation in
an organisation of your choice.
Organisations may include:
· Your own workplace
· Local councils
· Businesses
· Not-for-profit organisations
· Government department or agency
· Local community groups
· Sporting clubs.
The purpose of the sustainability policy is to develop strategies
for:
· Minimising resource use
· Reducing toxic material and hazardous chemical use
· Employing life cycle management approaches
· Promoting sustainability principles
· Raising awareness among stakeholders
· Training staff in sustainability principles and techniques
Part A: Planning sustainability policy
Before you write the sustainability policy you need to access
information on sustainability practices and the processes and
techniques of writing policy. You also need to discuss possible
approaches to policy development and implementation with key
stakeholders.
1. Gather information from a range of sources to help you plan
and develop the policy. Sources may include:
· Industry guidelines
· Industry best practice
· Relevant personnel
· Organisational specifications
· Legislative requirements
2. You will need to research different methods and techniques
for writing policy. All types of organisations have policies to
guide the way work is done in the organisation. Consequently,
policy documents can be written and presented in many ways.
Some of the issues you will need to consider are:
· How you will structure the document most effectively?
· What writing style will you use?
· Will you include the organisation’s general principles and
philosophies?
· How will you organise general policies and specific
procedures?
· Who needs to authorise the policy document?
3. Identify and consult with stakeholders as a key component of
the policy development process. Stakeholders may include:
· Customers
· Staff
· Investors
· Local community
· Regulators
· Technical specialists
You should use a variety of methods to involve stakeholders in
the policy development. You should be prepared to effectively
manage different points of view and dissenting stakeholders.
You are expected to contribute to the resolution of disputes
among stakeholders.
4. Make recommendations for sustainability policy options to
address inefficiencies within the organisation or opportunities
for improvements in sustainability practices based on:
· Likely effectiveness
· Time-frames
· Cost
· Existing organisational policies such as equal employment
opportunity, OHS and equity and diversity policies
· Principles and practices of sustainability management relevant
to the industry
· Industry best practice
· Available tools and techniques of sustainability management
· Continuous improvement in resource efficiencySpecifications
You must submit a report which details your planning process.
You must discuss:
· The organisation you have selected or you are working with
· The research you have conducted and the sources you have
used
· The methods and techniques of policy writing you will use
· The needs and interests of each stakeholder group that you
have identified
· Sustainability policy options you recommend including a
discussion of their advantages and disadvantages for the
organisation and for the various stakeholder groups.
· Final recommendations for policy options based on likely
effectiveness, time-frames and cost
Adjustment for distance-based learners
· No variation of the task is required.
· Documentation can be submitted electronically or posted in
the mail.
Part B: Write sustainability policy
Now that you have understood sustainability and the
inefficiencies and opportunities for improved sustainable
practices in the organisation, you must develop a workplace
sustainability policy.
The written workplace sustainability policy that you submit
must:
1. Define the scope of the policy.
This may include:
· Breadth of the policy application – will it be implemented in
parts of organisation, the whole organisation or across multiple
organisations
· Policy approach – will you select an integrated approach
which includes environmental, social and economic aspects, or a
specific approach that focuses on aspects individually?
· Adherence to legislation – will you meet the relevant
legislation which supports the compliance of your organisation
in environmental performance and sustainability?
· Reference the organisation's policy to international and nation
environmental standards, guidelines and approaches – will you
follow guidelines and approaches such as the Global Reporting
Initiative ecological foot print and Greenhouse Challenge Plus.
2. Develop a workplace sustainability policy that reflects the
organisation's commitment to sustainability as an integral part
of business planning, and as a business opportunity which
includes benchmark indicators.
3. Develop an implementation strategy as part of the policy.
This may involve developing:
· Relevant systems and procedures to aid in the achievement of
workplace sustainability
· Quality assurance systems
· Relevant protocols
· System for continuous improvement in resource efficiency for
recording and interpreting data
Specifications
You must submit your work as a formal policy document.
You must work in consultation with the relevant people in your
organisation so that the document accurately reflects
organisational requirements.
It is important that your policy is precise, well-structured and
expressed in a way that keeps in mind your target
audience.Assessment Task 1 – Student self-assessment checklist

These assessments must
· Simulation is a form of evidence gathering that involves the
candidate in completing or dealing with a task, activity or
problem in an off-the-job situation that replicates the workplace
context. Documented definitions (such as in the TAA Glossary)
state "Simulations vary from recreating realistic workplace
situations such as in the use of flight simulators, through the
creation of role plays based on workplace scenarios to the
reconstruction of a business situation on a spreadsheet. In
developing simulations, the emphasis is not so much on
reproducing the external circumstance but on creating situations
in which candidates are able to demonstrate:
· technical skills
· underpinning knowledge
· generic skills such as decision making and problem solving
· workplace practices such as effective communication"
· In conducting training and assessment in a simulated
workplace environment, trainers and assessors must make sure
that the simulated environment gives the learner the opportunity
to meet the following critical criteria:
· Quality – The work is of the standard required for entry into
the industry.
· Productivity – The work is performed within a timeframe
appropriate for entry to the industry.
· Safety – The work is performed in a manner that meets
industry safety standards.
· Each assessment has taken the following aspects into
consideration, to ensure any simulations provide for integrated
assessment of competence. This includes:
· performing the task (task skills)
· managing a number of tasks (task management skills)
· dealing with workplace irregularities such as unexpected
problems, breakdowns and changes in routine (contingency
management skills)
· fulfilling the responsibilities and expectations of the job and
workplace, including working with others (job/role environment
skills)
· transferring competencies to new contexts.
· Assessment activities must be realistic and reasonable in terms
of scale. Assessment conducted under simulated conditions
should reflect those typically found in the workplace. Where
appropriate to the UOC, simulated environment should allow
the learner to:
· deal with typical customers, including difficult customers and
diverse types of customers
· use facilities, equipment and materials that meet current
industry standards
· plan and prioritise multiple tasks to meet deadlines
· experience the typical workflow for the industry
· require adherence to service standards, workplace procedures,
health and safety requirements
· work with others as part of a team
· consider constraints and pressures met in the workplace, e.g.
budget, time, availability of resources
· If a simulated workplace is used, it must allow for distractions
such as background noises, ringing telephones, interruptions,
etc. As this is a business unit, a simulated environment may
also include an office environment with office equipment and
computers. Each student must dress appropriately and
professionally in line with workplace standards.
· For each assessment, you are not to interfere. In the event
that the assessment activities will impact on the safety of a
student or bystander, the assessment must be stopped
immediately

description
Increasingly more businesses and organisations are
implementing sustainability policies to encourage sustainability
principles and practices within the workplace
You are to develop a sustainability policy for implementation in
an organisation of your choice.
Organisations may include:
· Your own workplace
· Local councils
· Businesses
· Not-for-profit organisations
· Government department or agency
· Local community groups
· Sporting clubs.
The purpose of the sustainability policy is to develop strategies
for:
· Minimising resource use
· Reducing toxic material and hazardous chemical use
· Employing life cycle management approaches
· Promoting sustainability principles
· Raising awareness among stakeholders
· Training staff in sustainability principles and techniques
Part A: Planning sustainability policy
Before you write the sustainability policy you need to access
information on sustainability practices and the processes and
techniques of writing policy. You also need to discuss possible
approaches to policy development and implementation with key
stakeholders.
1. Gather information from a range of sources to help you plan
and develop the policy. Sources may include:
· Industry guidelines
· Industry best practice
· Relevant personnel
· Organisational specifications
· Legislative requirements
2. You will need to research different methods and techniques
for writing policy. All types of organisations have policies to
guide the way work is done in the organisation. Consequently,
policy documents can be written and presented in many ways.
Some of the issues you will need to consider are:
· How you will structure the document most effectively?
· What writing style will you use?
· Will you include the organisation’s general principles and
philosophies?
· How will you organise general policies and specific
procedures?
· Who needs to authorise the policy document?
3. Identify and consult with stakeholders as a key component of
the policy development process. Stakeholders may include:
· Customers
· Staff
· Investors
· Local community
· Regulators
· Technical specialists
You should use a variety of methods to involve stakeholders in
the policy development. You should be prepared to effectively
manage different points of view and dissenting stakeholders.
You are expected to contribute to the resolution of disputes
among stakeholders.
4. Make recommendations for sustainability policy options to
address inefficiencies within the organisation or opportunities
for improvements in sustainability practices based on:
· Likely effectiveness
· Time-frames
· Cost
· Existing organisational policies such as equal employment
opportunity, OHS and equity and diversity policies
· Principles and practices of sustainability management relevant
to the industry
· Industry best practice
· Available tools and techniques of sustainability management
· Continuous improvement in resource efficiencySpecifications
You must submit a report which details your planning process.
You must discuss:
· The organisation you have selected or you are working with
· The research you have conducted and the sources you have
used
· The methods and techniques of policy writing you will use
· The needs and interests of each stakeholder group that you
have identified
· Sustainability policy options you recommend including a
discussion of their advantages and disadvantages for the
organisation and for the various stakeholder groups.
· Final recommendations for policy options based on likely
effectiveness, time-frames and cost
Adjustment for distance-based learners
· No variation of the task is required.
· Documentation can be submitted electronically or posted in
the mail.
Part B: Write sustainability policy
Now that you have understood sustainability and the
inefficiencies and opportunities for improved sustainable
practices in the organisation, you must develop a workplace
sustainability policy.
The written workplace sustainability policy that you submit
must:
1. Define the scope of the policy.
This may include:
· Breadth of the policy application – will it be implemented in
parts of organisation, the whole organisation or across multiple
organisations
· Policy approach – will you select an integrated approach
which includes environmental, social and economic aspects, or a
specific approach that focuses on aspects individually?
· Adherence to legislation – will you meet the relevant
legislation which supports the compliance of your organisation
in environmental performance and sustainability?
· Reference the organisation's policy to international and nation
environmental standards, guidelines and approaches – will you
follow guidelines and approaches such as the Global Reporting
Initiative ecological foot print and Greenhouse Challenge Plus.
2. Develop a workplace sustainability policy that reflects the
organisation's commitment to sustainability as an integral part
of business planning, and as a business opportunity which
includes benchmark indicators.
3. Develop an implementation strategy as part of the policy.
This may involve developing:
· Relevant systems and procedures to aid in the achievement of
workplace sustainability
· Quality assurance systems
· Relevant protocols
· System for continuous improvement in resource efficiency for
recording and interpreting data
Specifications
You must submit your work as a formal policy document.
You must work in consultation with the relevant people in your
organisation so that the document accurately reflects
organisational requirements.
It is important that your policy is precise, well-structured and
expressed in a way that keeps in mind your target
audience.Assessment Task 1 – Student self-assessment checklist

This assessment should follow the student successfully completing Assessment tasks 1 and 2. It must be assessed in the same context as the previous assessment tasks. 2. If a simulated environment is used, the student is to run a meeting with others to discuss the implementation process. Meeting participants may include other students, yourself or other assessors. However, it is imperative that each participant in the meeting is briefed on their role, and presents themselves professionally. This is important to maintain the reliability of the assessment process. 3. The context of this assessment may be based on the student’s business, or on your training organisation (using the RTO Policy and Procedures, systems and information as relevant. The assessment may be undertaken in the following format: Classroom / Simulated environment. These assessments must · Simulation is a form of evidence gathering that involves the candidate in completing or dealing with a task, activity or problem in an off-the-job situation that replicates the workplace context. Documented definitions (such as in the TAA Glossary) state "Simulations vary from recreating realistic workplace situations such as in the use of flight simulators, through the creation of role plays based on workplace scenarios to the reconstruction of a business situation on a spreadsheet. In developing simulations, the emphasis is not so much on reproducing the external circumstance but on creating situations in which candidates are able to demonstrate: · technical skills · underpinning knowledge · generic skills such as decision making and problem solving
  • 51. · workplace practices such as effective communication" · In conducting training and assessment in a simulated workplace environment, trainers and assessors must make sure that the simulated environment gives the learner the opportunity to meet the following critical criteria: · Quality – The work is of the standard required for entry into the industry. · Productivity – The work is performed within a timeframe appropriate for entry to the industry. · Safety – The work is performed in a manner that meets industry safety standards. · Each assessment has taken the following aspects into consideration, to ensure any simulations provide for integrated assessment of competence. This includes: · performing the task (task skills) · managing a number of tasks (task management skills) · dealing with workplace irregularities such as unexpected problems, breakdowns and changes in routine (contingency management skills) · fulfilling the responsibilities and expectations of the job and workplace, including working with others (job/role environment skills) · transferring competencies to new contexts. · Assessment activities must be realistic and reasonable in terms of scale. Assessment conducted under simulated conditions should reflect those typically found in the workplace. Where appropriate to the UOC, simulated environment should allow the learner to: · deal with typical customers, including difficult customers and diverse types of customers · use facilities, equipment and materials that meet current industry standards · plan and prioritise multiple tasks to meet deadlines · experience the typical workflow for the industry · require adherence to service standards, workplace procedures, health and safety requirements
  • 52. · work with others as part of a team · consider constraints and pressures met in the workplace, e.g. budget, time, availability of resources · If a simulated workplace is used, it must allow for distractions such as background noises, ringing telephones, interruptions, etc. As this is a business unit, a simulated environment may also include an office environment with office equipment and computers. Each student must dress appropriately and professionally in line with workplace standards. · For each assessment, you are not to interfere. In the event that the assessment activities will impact on the safety of a student or bystander, the assessment must be stopped immediately Assessment Task 3 – Assessor checklist This checklist is to be used when assessing the students in this task.

The assessment may be undertaken in the following format: Classroom / Simulated environment. These assessments must · Simulation is a form of evidence gathering that involves the candidate in completing or dealing with a task, activity or problem in an off-the-job situation that replicates the workplace context. Documented definitions (such as in the TAA Glossary) state "Simulations vary from recreating realistic workplace situations such as in the use of flight simulators, through the creation of role plays based on workplace scenarios to the reconstruction of a business situation on a spreadsheet. In developing simulations, the emphasis is not so much on reproducing the external circumstance but on creating situations in which candidates are able to demonstrate: · technical skills · underpinning knowledge · generic skills such as decision making and problem solving · workplace practices such as effective communication" · In conducting training and assessment in a simulated workplace environment, trainers and assessors must make sure that the simulated environment gives the learner the opportunity to meet the following critical criteria: · Quality – The work is of the standard required for entry into the industry. · Productivity – The work is performed within a timeframe appropriate for entry to the industry. · Safety – The work is performed in a manner that meets industry safety standards. · Each assessment has taken the following aspects into consideration, to ensure any simulations provide for integrated assessment of competence. This includes:
  • 100. · performing the task (task skills) · managing a number of tasks (task management skills) · dealing with workplace irregularities such as unexpected problems, breakdowns and changes in routine (contingency management skills) · fulfilling the responsibilities and expectations of the job and workplace, including working with others (job/role environment skills) · transferring competencies to new contexts. · Assessment activities must be realistic and reasonable in terms of scale. Assessment conducted under simulated conditions should reflect those typically found in the workplace. Where appropriate to the UOC, simulated environment should allow the learner to: · deal with typical customers, including difficult customers and diverse types of customers · use facilities, equipment and materials that meet current industry standards · plan and prioritise multiple tasks to meet deadlines · experience the typical workflow for the industry · require adherence to service standards, workplace procedures, health and safety requirements · work with others as part of a team · consider constraints and pressures met in the workplace, e.g. budget, time, availability of resources · If a simulated workplace is used, it must allow for distractions such as background noises, ringing telephones, interruptions, etc. As this is a business unit, a simulated environment may also include an office environment with office equipment and computers. Each student must dress appropriately and professionally in line with workplace standards. · For each assessment, you are not to interfere. In the event that the assessment activities will impact on the safety of a student or bystander, the assessment must be stopped immediatelyAssessment Task 1 – Assessor checklist This checklist is to be used when assessing the students in this
