ASSESSESSMENT A – Case Study Presentation

Description of Task

Each group (consisting of 4-5 team members) will be given a video to view, analyze and
thereby prepare a presentation on their findings on its Workplace Health and Safety
(WHS) policies, procedures and programs to meet legislative requirements.

The video analysis will require an investigation and subsequent evaluation of what and
how the accident occurred in the video. Students will be required to investigate the
organisation in the video and discuss their recommendations for its WHS policies and
procedures in the future. The study may reveal a need for: more documentation,
infrastructural changes and/or worker’s requirements. Your lecturer will allocate a video
from the following list to each group:
