2. CSO
Introduction my name is Roderick Arthur Guy, I have been at CSO for around
five years as a Community Service Worker, and have just been promoted to
Floor Shift Supervisor around six months ago. So please forgive any errors
that might appear along the way, as I am quite confident in my current
position. The manager ask me to develop this work place induction, with
updates on hazardous manual tasks for all new
employee’s/volunteers/aspirants in CSO and it is a new learning curve for me
as well as you.
DUTIES – RESPONSIBILITY - OF FLOOR SHIFT SUPERVISOR
[1.} Each new employee will have different requirements for development
and training, as a Floor Shift Supervisor you are expect to always walk in their
shoes. Remember your first day, at CSO, and how it made all the difference
having someone there with a smile on their dial.
A. Ensure all necessary paperwork including personal details forms, tax file
number (TFN) forms, and contracts are completed and signed be
necessary staff, including the new employee.
B. successfully as this will become your work bible.
3. CSO
C. It’s not compulsory but the Floor Shift Supervisor would be a recommendation to
arrange a meeting with the aspirant the day before invite them to CSO café for coffee
and lunch. This would help both parties gain an understanding of each other and the
Floor Shift Supervisor, and then could develop an induction plan around the Aspirant
saving both time and CSO outcome resources.
D. Organise any PPE (personal protective equipment and access requirements.
E. If the Aspirant has any physical operational requirements, work space/station and
ensuring that everything is in good order [calculator has batteries], ergonomics of their
work area is set to the Aspirant correct positioning. All CSO Employees are initially
provided with two full sets of uniform every year (shoes, socks, cap), the Aspirant can
purchase more sets later on if they choose too. If at the end of the 3months probation,
the Aspirant decides to leave, then they must return the uniform back to CSO.
F. Now your Aspirant is uniform and they have their PPE, take them on a guided tour of
CSO and introduce them to your fellow brother and sisters. Also let key people local and
national (if appropriate), by adding the Aspirant to the any of the Distribution, mailing,
contact and phone listings etc.
G. = General Overview Step Back do your checklist check * Welcome the Aspirant *
WHS (PPE) uniform* Paper Work Completed*Introduction manual and Meet and greet*
H. Lunch at CSO Café it is free to all the family members of CSO Corporation.
I. After Lunch sit down with the Aspirant and establish personal work goals. (To be a
positive influence in the workplace, through personal work planning and organisation-
being subservient) Remembering that the activities, personal work goals and plans is a
reflection, emulates the CSO plans, and own responsibilities and accountabilities.
Maintain and measure personal performance in varying work condition, work contexts
and contingencies. Set and meet own work priorities, develop and maintain professional
competence.
4. CSO
J. Now you have establish, explain the guidelines and principals of CSO you can
explain the reasoning behind the DILO Worksheet, and the importance of making sure
the Aspirant understand and fills it in correctly and honestly daily, as they are the link
to our KPI’s and our own personal and professional development.
K. The last lot of work appraisal’s, majority of them were below the corporate
retention level and the WHOS levels, the only fair and equable solution is that all
employees undergo the induction process again, no exception. This way every
employee can readapt their in house training plans with their allocated FSS.
L. Communications in CSO this not an option it is elementary rudimentary in the
deliverance of the ultimate supreme customers experience. This is why all employees
must leave all technological divergence devices (mobile phones, games, iPod etc.) in
their Lockers, assigned to them on day one. Each employee has an individual work
tablet and ‘I’ phone assign to them, these are stored with the Floor Shift Supervisor
(FSS), and must be collected at the beginning of designated shift, and on the
completion of the set shift the Tablets and ‘I’ phone are to be return to the FSS. All
daily documentation enter into the tablet correctly i.e. DILO worksheets, timesheets,
everything regarding your work activities (interventions, break times, questions,
Skype) are all built into the work tablets. The FSS downloads and uploads to the HR
department daily, for work analysis (KPI’S etc.). In found to be in breach of this
communication policy of CSO, can result in instance dismissal and an inquiry as to the
reason for the breach must be carry out. This why it’s imperative that you know your
assign tablet inside and out, It will contain every critical bit of information that will
make your life at CSO more pleasurable and successfully as this will become your work
bible.
5. CSO
This is why its critical especially in community services organisations [CSO] to establish
this paper trail, as a lot of sectors have limited resources but by creating an effective
DILO system in the CSO. Is it opens up dialogue about what should be done and by
whom and it can be quite surprising but it reveals to the employees not all seems to
be what it is and what they actually do, are often two different things. 1. Determine
your scope/audience 2. Communicate your purpose 3. Identify activity categories and
core activities 4. Prepare your DILO 5. Collate Participants Activity Analysis 6. Analyse
the DILO Worksheets 7. Share and Plan for improvement - DILO Worksheet - Core
Activities Activity Categories - Admin - Routine job tasks - Interruptions - Waiting time
-Project work - Meetings - Coaching -Interviewing - Traveling -Time Duration Core
Activity - Category - Rating (1=low, 5=high)
The most important facet of this equation is the last point that encourages employees
to talk about the issues and opportunities, share and discuss individual DILO's, provide
lots of opportunity for people to express their thoughts and experiences, which ones
are surprising and which are expected, how it can increase awareness- improve work
habits, creates opportunities for employee's, begin a plan for improvement, set dates
for a regular DILO program to plot changes and improvements. There are so many
opportunities available in the CSO for managers to fulfil their obligations in their duty
of care to respective employees, thus leading by example employees will do their duty
of care as a reciprocal arrangement. Monkeys see Monkey do.

Early intervention is one of the underpinning values and philosophy of the sector and work environment. Provide a detailed explanation of what early
intervention is. Early Intervention is an important investment in the future of children, families and the community. It provides important building blocks that
develop resilience to, or skills to avoid, challenges that may be faced, particularly at key turning points and transitions in people's lives. Government’s
investment in early intervention also potentially avoids or reduces the need to direct significant amounts of public money in the future toward the lengthy and
expensive support programs that are required to address serious and engrained problems.
Early Intervention can also be aimed at lowering the prevalence of specific problems or issues in a population1 It focuses on strategies to resolve issues,
aiming to intervene early in the life of a problem, and typically focuses on populations at a higher risk of developing problems or on families that are
experiencing problems which have not yet become well established or entrenched. It is more likely to require individually tailored solutions.
Person centred approaches is a phrase used to describe ways of listening carefully to what a person has to say. To find out bout what is important to a person,
what they want to achieve, their dreams, hopes, fears, needs and wishes. It also includes what a person does not want to have happen for them. Family
members, and people who are important in the lives of the person with a disability can be included in the discussions. The Person-Centred Approach
developed from the work of the psychologist Dir. Carl Rogers (1902 – 1987). He advanced an approach to psychotherapy and counselling that, at the time
(1940s – 1960s), was considered extremely radical if not revolutionary.
"Access and Equity" is about removing the obstacles and addressing the opportunities created in this process. In CSW this means ensuring that people with
differing/individual needs and abilities have the same opportunities to successfully gain the necessary skills, knowledge and experience through education and
training irrespective of their age, disability, colour, race, gender, religion, sexuality, family responsibilities, or location. In understanding and addressing the
Community Service needs of everyone, with the aide of Diversity in recognising and valuing of individual differences. "Disability" the definition under the Act is
broad and includes physical, intellectual, psychiatric, sensory, learning neurological, physical disfigurement and the presence in the body of disease causing
organisms. So as you can image there is a lot of scope in dealing with 'Access and Equity’, it also understands the relevant legislation that protects you and
your client and gives both parties choice of opportunity in developing the process involved.
The Equal Opportunity Act 1984 (SA),
Racial Discrimination Act 1975 (Federal), the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Federal) and the Disability
Discrimination Act 1992 (Federal) makes discrimination and harassment in the provision of education,
employment and the provision of goods and services unlawful.
Equal Opportunity law also makes lawful the establishment of special processes, measures or schemes, for the benefit of employees or clients from equity
targeted groups, which are designed to correct past disadvantages.
The Occupational Health, Safety and Welfare Act 1986 also requires that all employees and clients be
provided with a safe and healthy working and learning environment free from discrimination and/or harassment.
The Access and Equity Framework's four principles, and the corresponding performance indicators, address key responsibilities of government:
Responsiveness – Extent to which programmes and services are accessible, fair and responsive to the individual needs of clients
Communication – Open and effective channels of communication with all stakeholders
Accountability – Effective and transparent reporting and review mechanisms
Leadership – A whole of government approach to management of issues arising from Australia’s culturally and linguistically diverse society.

10. Accreditation is vital ingredient in any CSO by providing certain standards and quality assurances that is why i know that
having a good DILO system in place is a excellent way making sure that your accreditation is on par with the standards
and quality assurances set down by government departments through legislation and charters etc. Also enabling the
CSO to acquire the maximum funding available for its sector of participation and to provide the best quality service to
it's clients and relevant partners and everyone is on a Win/Win situation.
The holistic approach is the concept of looking after the whole environment that encompasses the whole individual or
CSO [sociology, physiology, psychological, etc..] Workforce development is a holistic concept that incorporates
workforce analysis and planning, human resource management and capability development to strengthen CSO success
by aligning the workforce to both current and future service demands. Many people are not aware of what workforce
development means, what it includes, who it involves, why it is important and how it is different to traditional
vocational education and training (Roche, 2002).
