Assessment Task 2:
Complete the following activities:

1. Carefully read the following scenario

You are to assume that you are the manager of a café or food business called the
Blue Healer Café.
You will make use of the Blue Healer Café documentation included in the student
resources folder along with the WHS Policy and Procedures from the WHSMS of
the training kitchen of your RTO for this assessment.
As the manager, it is your responsibility to implement and monitor the work health
and safety practices of the employees (your classmates).
Answer:
Implementing and overseeing the cafe's staff's work health and safety procedures
is my job as the manager of the Blue Healer Cafe. The Work Health and Safety Act
of 2011 (the Act) is something that Blue Healer Cafe is devoted to upholding, which
means that we must create an environment where all work tasks may be completed
safely by taking all reasonable precautions to minimize or reduce hazards to our
employees, contractors, visitors, and anyone else who may be impacted by our
activities.
In order to ensure compliance with the WHS Act and to offer sufficient mechanisms
for continuing dialogue and management of WHS concerns, Blue Healer's WHS
Policies and Procedures establish the safety arrangements and principles that must
be followed by and by its personnel. Following a review of all organizational-related
papers, it is important to consider the following critical measures to ensure WHS
Act compliance.
• Disseminating information on work-related health and safety practices: Educating
staff members on pertinent, up-to-date WHS practices.
• Inspection of the working environment and the workplace: WHS compliance and
processes are tracked, and non-compliance procedures are addressed. Every day
observation will be conducted.
• It is important to organize consultation arrangements for issues relating to
security, safety, and health: Make sure that all consultation processes go without a
hitch. Permit employees to voice their thoughts on current and upcoming workplace
safety management strategies. Solve WHS consultation issues or forward them to
the appropriate party. Give the designated person timely staff and individual input
on WHS management strategies.

2. Review key documents from the WHSMS and set up folders

You now need to review some key documents as preparation for the next steps:

 WHS Action Plan

 The relevant WHS Policy and Procedures for the kitchen

 WHS Administration Policy

 The evacuation plan including posters and signs

Make the assumption that items 1,2 and 5 of the action plan have already been
completed.
Prepare to undertake action items 3, 4 and 6 of the action plan by preparing a
briefing session for staff that will ensure these items are completed.
Set up folder systems on your local drive on your computer as outlined in the WHS
Administration Policy and add the relevant soft copy documents to this. You will be
using this folder system throughout this assessment.
Answer:
briefing of the staff
Management, pertinent employees, and human resource management are present.
Discussions on concluding the action plan are on the agenda.
To make sure the action plan is finished, a staff briefing was given. Action items 1,
2, and 5 in the action plan have already been finished, however items 3, 4, and 6
still need to be finished.
Brieffing: Hello to Everyone. Because we didn't finish the work on the action plan by
the deadline, this meeting is being conducted. In total, we created seven action
plans, but just a few of them have been carried out. The unfinished action plans
include:
Action item 3: Creating an information sheet on kitchen risks and hazards
Action item 4: WHS briefing on new policies and inclusion of WHS rules and
procedures in new hire orientation and continuous employee training.
Action item 5: Provide training on the usage of a Hazard Inspection Checklist (HIC)
that includes a risk assessment to all staff members.
It is crucial to create an information sheet on hazard and risk management for the
kitchen to help all staff become knowledgeable about the industry. This plan has
been made, but it is now being put into action. All employees require ongoing
training on WHS protocols and new standards because new staff members are also
employed.
Staff training is therefore immediately required as well. As a result, the completion
and implementation of actions plans 3 and 6 are urgently required in order to
provide the staff with a preventative cure. The operational and human resource
managers are each responsible for completing Action Plans 3 and 6, which must be

finished as soon as possible and in accordance with the deadline. Following the
meeting, Action Plan 4 must be created within 14 days and finished within six
months.
All staff need to learn how to use the risk management-incorporated hazard
inspection checklist.
I thus hope that we all move quickly to create the unfinished action plans.

3. Develop WHS informative handouts for staff

You are required to develop three health and safety information handouts, which
are to be provided to, and discussed with, your team at a WHS briefing.
Read the requirements for each of the handouts below and then conduct research
using the Internet to identify the information needed for each of the handouts and
include information from the kitchen’s WHS Policy and Procedures, and reference
this as required in your handouts.
The format and style for the handouts are as follows:

 Create clear and concise one (1) page handouts using computer software. You
can develop these in any program available to you such as Word, Publisher or
other design program – but Word is fine for this purpose.

 Use simple and clear language that takes into account social and cultural
diversity. For, example, use simple English and avoid colloquial language or
slang.

 Use appropriately sized fonts and present well-formatted, grammatically


correct information.

 Ensure that the handouts you create use the same layout, font, colours and
style so they are consistent in their approach.
You will be required to present the handouts that you have developed at an WHS
briefing session soon. Print one copy of each handout for the training session but
save soft copies to your WHS filing system on your device.
Submit a copy of each handout to your assessor prior to the meeting.

Handout 1: Legislation
The purpose of this handout is to clearly and simply explain important information
about legislation. Your handout should:

 Explain the purpose of Work Health and Safety legislation, including the
function of a WHS Act, WHS regulation and Code of Practice

 Provide an overview of WHS legislation including name of Act, regulations and


examples of code of practice relevant to your state/territory.

 Outline key roles and responsibilities under WHS legislation.

 Include at least 3 references for further sources of useful information.

Answer: The goal of work health and safety legislation is to protect everyone who
comes into contact with a workplace, including employees, volunteers, and visitors.
Here, the WHS law intends to provide Blue Healer with a framework for its new
management system as well as clarity about what must be done and by when. The
WHS Act's purpose is to protect the health and safety of employees and other
persons by removing or decreasing risk and to motivate unions and employer
organizations to contribute positively to WHS practice. The goal of WHS regulations
is to maintain the highest level of worker safety.
The WHS Act, rules, and code of practice are unique to each state and territory.
Similar WHS laws have been passed in New South Wales, South Australia,
Queensland, the Northern Territory, the ACT, and Tasmania. These laws are
largely based on an agreed-upon "version" of the WHS Act. The WHS act in New
South Wales therefore offers a safe and secure atmosphere in which people may
work while abiding by the organization's norms and regulations, protecting all
workers in the sector. It facilitates the creation of hazardous chemical safety data
sheets and the labeling of hazardous substances in the workplace.
These are the main functions and obligations under WHS regulation.

 Ensure that your employees are working in a safe and healthy environment.

 Ensure that procedures are checked, followed, and assessed.

 Make resources available to comply with WHS policy and procedural


requirements

 Pay special attention to offering secure tools and platforms for workers.

Handout 2: Identifying hazards and risk control in the café


The purpose of this handout is to provide information about identifying hazards and
risk control, and procedures for dealing with hazards in the environment.

You should briefly explain the process of identifying hazards and risk control and
provide 5 common examples of hazards that may occur in the kitchen environment
based on data from your research about the most common ones Include
information about how employees can complete an incident report and the
investigation process undertaken by the business.
Choose one of the common hazards that you have identified and include a simple
step-by-step procedure for dealing with that hazard (risk control), using diagrams to
illustrate each step where possible.
Your handout should also address and explain the hierarchy of control and how it is
to be used in the workplace.
Answer:
The process of identifying hazards and risk control are:

 Identification of risk factors and possible hazards is the first step in risk
management.

 Examine and evaluate the risk posed by the threats and risk factors that
might result in harm.

 Choose the best techniques for eliminating hazards or lowering risk if they
cannot be entirely removed.
The five typical dangers that can happen in a kitchen environment are:
• Physical risks: burns, machine injuries, and knife cuts
• Chemical risks include allergies and rashes brought on by cleaning products and
chemicals, as well as chemical contamination of food.
• Biological Hazards: Foods tainted with bacteria, viruses, and rodents.
• Slips, trips, and falls from heights are ergonomic risks.
• Electric shock is a risk with electricity.
Physical dangers, which include knife cuts, burns, and injuries from machinery and
equipment, are the most frequent hazards seen in the kitchen area.
The following are some risk management strategies for the physical hazard:
i. Elimination: Taking sharp objects like kitchen knives out of reach. removing
machinery and equipment that are not essential.
ii. Substitution: Using an automated grinder in place of a mortar and pestle
and an electric cutter in place of knives. 
iii. Engineering control: Making changes to the kitchen to reduce exposure to
risks and hazards, such as making it more roomy to prevent accidents and
posting instructions for safe machine use right next to the equipment.
iv. Administrative control: Educating employees on how to use equipment

correctly to avoid burns and other accidents v.


v. PPE: Provide workers with personal protective equipment, such as hand
gloves and face shields, to keep them safe.
The diagram to illustrate the process is:

Using the ladder of power, workplace risks may be minimized. The hierarchy of
control, which ranks threat controls from highest level of safety and dependability to
lowest and least dependable level of safety, is a methodical approach for lowering
or eliminating risks. Eliminating risk and threat is the highest degree of
management within the hierarchy, which is followed by reducing danger via
substitution, isolation, and engineering controls, and finally lowering threat through
administrative controls.

Handout 3: WHS Consultation


The purpose of this handout is to explain the requirements for WHS consultation
under legislation and to indicate how the business communicates WHS legislation
and consults with staff as indicated in the organisation’s WHS policy and
procedure.
You should also explain why it is important for a business to conduct WHS
communication and consultation.
Include the details of the college’s WHS representative or committee.
Answer:
Consultation is a crucial part of risk management in the areas of health and safety
and is also required by law. When everybody involved in the task communicates
with each other to identify risks and consequences, address any concerns about
safety, and work together to develop solutions, it is simpler to build a secure
environment. One example is cooperation between those who direct or oversee the
task as well as those who carry it out or are impacted by it.
WHS consultation and communication are crucial because they help with the
creation, application, and evaluation of policies and procedures for identifying

Information on the college's WHS representative
The Work Health and Safety Act of 2011 consultation process is crucial and
includes representatives for health and safety. That Act. Workers choose health
and safety representatives to represent their interests and those of their coworkers
in workplace health and safety issues. Representatives for health and safety are
chosen for a three-year term.

4. Conduct a hazard inspection of the meeting room

In the next activity step, you will run your WHS briefing session. In line with
procedure, and as outlined in action item 6, you are required to conduct a hazard
inspection using the relevant form from the WHSMS. Your assessor will set up the
room prior to you conducting the inspection.

You will also be required to record recommended corrective actions as well as
future risk control measures.
You will be assessed on whether you have correctly identified the hazards and
suitable corrective actions and risk control measures.
When you have identified a hazard, implement procedures to control the risks
involved. Give a verbal commentary on what you are doing, so your assessor can
follow the thinking behind your actions. In particular, your commentary should
demonstrate how you are using the hierarchy of control to determine the best
procedures to implement.
Submit your completed HIC to the assessor prior to the next step.

Meeting summary
Following the meeting, all members of the working team were informed of the kitchen safety
requirements. One of the most important parts of the kitchen is cleanliness since it allows the staff
to provide the customers pleasant, hygienic food. The kitchen is cleaned thoroughly every day, and
the cooking burner is cleaned after each use.
As according information first from team and staff, kitchen team members do not adhere to the
safety and cleanliness regulations for cleaning the stove and range when the kitchen is busy due to
a high volume of guests. The management has to address this issue.
What should be done
In order to enact the strategy and policy, management should provide effective training and
instruction to new hires as well as teach the current workforce how to use the new technology. All
staff members need to be properly trained to maintain the kitchen's cleanliness. Keep the kitchen
stove and also the vegetable chopping range at the top of the priority list to prevent food
contamination. All safety precautions must be observed and put into practice in order to serve the
visitors wholesome and hygienic food.

Dear Sir,

I hope all is good in your world. Our café has developed a plan to carry out its
purposes. I'm writing to you now to let you know that the weakness in our previous
strategy prevents us from achieving our objectives. We need to change the plan as
soon as we can because of the shortcoming. We must first do research to ascertain
which direction the deficit is coming from, after which we must immediately change
our plan in order to identify the shortcoming.
The plan's flaws require the amendment, which should be carried out as soon as
practical.
I anticipate hearing from you soon. Thank You
With Kind Regards.
Company Manager
