Part 1:
You work for an organisation that has only been operating for a relatively short time.
At start-up there were only five employees. Over the last 12 months business has rapidly
increased and the company has taken on another 27 employees.
With the increase in employees the need for a human resource function was identified
and you were recruited and selected for the position. Part of your role will involve
developing the policies and procedures that will be required in the organisation and that
will help to ensure compliance with relevant legislation.
Although the workforce appears to be sufficiently diverse you believe that it is important
to develop a specific diversity policy.
In order to do this, you will have to conduct the research that will enable you to develop
policy and prepare it for implementation.
In a report format, paper explain:
 what research you will conduct
 the sources of information you will access
 how the information collected as a result of the research will contribute to policy
development
 who will be involved in the research and in the policy development process

 the procedures you will follow to develop and to implement the policy
 how will you justify, to senior management, the need for a diversity policy?

Part B:
Develop, document and submit the developed diversity policy. The policy should be
suitable for implementation into any business organisation. Make sure that it is
comprehensive, clear and contains no spelling or grammatical errors.
Briefly answer these questions:
1. Does the policy support compliance with relevant legislation? Explain how.
2. Have you incorporated feedback and suggestions from stakeholders into the final
draft? If so, what did you need to incorporate?
3. Are there relationships or links between the intended diversity policy and other
policies?
4. How will the policy support applicable legislation?
5. What are the anticipated outcomes of the policy?
6. Are there likely to be any unintended outcomes and if any are identified what will
you do about them?
7. Who will be involved in developing action plans?
8. What methods might be used to inform stakeholders about the policy—during
development and when it is ready for implementation?
9. What procedures will be followed to implement the policy?
10. What will you do if problems or issues are encountered?
11. How will you measure the impact of the policy?
12. How will compliance with and acceptance of the policy be measured?
13. How will you measure the success of the implementation?
14. Will you consult with stakeholders during the implementation process and if so,
why?
