o In the above scenario, student will be given an opportunity for reassessment within 5
working days with no reassessment fee charged.
o Students who are deemed to be Not Yet Competent (NYC) will be provided with
information identifying the areas in which they failed to achieve competency. Students
will then have the opportunity to repeat the assessment task and relevant
reassessment fees will apply for the unit.
o If a student is deemed NYC in the reassessment, then the student is required to
reenrol for the entire unit of competency and relevant reenrolment fees will apply for
the unit.

Plagiarism, Collusion and Cheating

Plagiarism means: taking someone’s words, ideas, work or other materials and present them as your
own.

Collusion means: understanding or agreement between two or more people to intentionally cooperate
and gain an unfair advantage in assessment.

Cheating means: seeking to obtain an unfair advantage in an examination or assessment.

If a student is found to be cheating, plagiarising or colluding during their assessment, the student will
immediately be deemed NS for the assessment task. The student will have to follow the reassessment
process and relevant reassessment fees will apply for the unit.
o If the student is found to be plagiarising, cheating or colluding again after the initial
instance, the student will be deemed NYC for the entire unit of competency. The
student will be required to reenrol for the entire unit of competency and relevant
reenrolment fees will apply for the unit.
o Any further instances of plagiarism, cheating or collusion will result in the suspension
or cancellation of the student’s enrolment
o The Institute has intervention strategies, including student support services available
to enable students to complete qualification in the expected time frame. Students at
risk of not completing within this time frame are identified as early as possible and an

Please read carefully of the background of the simulated company
below.
This task is a continuation from Assessment Task 1 and referring to the same simulated business case
scenario and appendices from Assessment Task 1.

Your Task to be completed – Part A

Part A
1. Review the following scenario:

You are a WHS consultant. You have been contracted by Australian Hardware to design and
implement a WHS management system (WHSMS) for the organisation. You have decided to
pilot your program in the Wollongong Store.

You will need to develop WHS risk management policy and procedures, and plan and
implement risk management in consultation with workers and their representatives.

1. Review the Australian Hardware simulated business information in the Appendices of the
previous Assessment Task. You can also review the Australia Hardware Employee Handbook in
C.1 Supplementary material (separate file)
Yes, I have looked over the simulated business information provided by Australian Hardware.
2. Develop a policy and procedure/s for WHS risk management. Ensure your policy and
procedure/s:
a. define the organisation’s approach to WHS risk management and commitment to legal
compliance
LTFIR:
Australian Hardware has a Lost Time to Injury Frequency Rate of 13.9, but the current industry
average is 10.1 in the same sector.
Need of WHMHS:
Compliance with the law in different jurisdictions
Reduce the frequency of missed time due to injury to a level lower than the national average, which
currently stands at 10% of total time lost.

c. include procedures for identifying hazards, and assessing and controlling risk
d. include reference to, and procedures for using, hierarchy of control
Identify:
This is the initial step in the risk assessment process. This section requires that the employee is
knowledgeable with the many types of hazards, as well as with record-keeping systems and
instruments like as auditing and job safety analysis.
Classification:
The most prevalent types of dangers include physical, psychological, mechanical, chemical, energy
sources, and environmental, each of which is further subdivided into subtypes. The table at the
conclusion of the response to the question contains examples of Australian Hazards.
Audits:
Safety audits are conducted to ensure that the organisation is adhering to legal requirements such as
WHS Legislation. Its objective is to detect workplace hazards and then estimate the amount of risk
posed by the hazard. Numerous techniques and instruments are available for monitoring workplace
activities for potential risks and hazards. To keep track of occupational hazards, checklists and risk
registers are frequently employed. Similarly, incident reports track occupational dangers and
instances involving serious injury requiring hospitalisation, which must be reported to the
appropriate WorkCover body or regulator, strictly adhering with WHS legislation.

JSA:
Analyse:
Job Safety Analysis is a technique for identifying solutions to dangers by identifying the job activity,
equipment, materials, and personal protective equipment that were employed, as well as whether
maintenance checks were required.
Frequency:
This is a reference to the chance of the hazards occurring. This is simply graded on a scale of 1 to 5 (1
being extremely rare, indicating that the event occurs infrequently). While 5 is the most common and
predicted event). The table below illustrates this point precisely.

Frequency Description Detail

1 Rare The occurrence is possible only in extreme situations.

2 Unlikely At some point, the event may occur.

3 Moderate At some point, the event must occur.

4 Likely The occurrence will almost certainly occur in the

majority of circumstances.

5 Almost certain The event is likely to occur in the majority of cases.

Severity:
This is a reference to the probable consequences of hazards. Similarly to frequency, severity is
likewise graded on a 1 to 5 scale (1 being insignificant and 5 being catastrophic). The figure below
elaborates on and explains severity in further detail.
Risk matrix:
The level of risk is calculated by multiplying the frequency by the severity. Additionally, the diagram
below can be used to perform calculations.
Evaluate:
After determining the risk score using the risk matrix, the very next step is to evaluate risk, and the
diagram assists in determining the risk level from lowest to highest.
Control:
The final step in risk assessment is to employ the hierarchy of controls to eliminate the potential risk.

PPE.
Preference is given to PPE in order of elimination. This is because elimination is regarded as a
panacea.
Following that, the next best option is substitution.
Review of improvements:
 Employees are being trained.
 Labels and signs should be used.
 Maintain order and cleanliness in the workplace.
 Using the appropriate tools and equipment
 Inspection on a regular basis.
Seek WHS Advice:
Advice can be obtained from a variety of sources, including organisations and individuals. The
following is a partial list, which does not include but is not limited to:
 Organizations such as labour unions and national and state regulatory bodies.
 Legal Advisory Services.
 Trainers and assessors for the workplace.
e. Refer to and assist the organisation to comply with consultation requirements under the
WHS Act.
WHS Act:
Sections 46–49 of the Act require duty holders and PCBUs to guarantee that WHS activities occur
inside their organisations. It also encompasses the duty holder's and PCBU's obligation to employees
by educating them on detecting and analysing hazards and then implementing controls to mitigate
the possible risks posed by hazards. Additionally, the employer is responsible for informing
employees about WHS and ensuring that employees perform work-related tasks in a safe & healthy
setting. The WHS Act is composed of three components:
Workgroups:
A workgroup is a collection of shift employees (for example, co-workers in the very same department
or branch). The workgroup wants to pick a representative for health and safety (HSR).
HSRs:
HSRs are elected by workgroups to represent employees' WHS interests and to help with either
health or safety matters. HSR shall be provided with the resources, facilities, and help necessary to
carry out their responsibilities. Their duty demands rigorous adherence to monitor the employer's or
employees' compliance with applicable legislation, to inquire about potential hazards with
designated workgroups, and to attempt resolution of health and safety issues.
Assessment 2 – Student Info – BSBWHS521
Version 6 – Updated on 2nd April 2019
Page 10 of 24
 HSR have the authority to suspend work if they consider there is a risk to a worker's health and
safety, and to issue a provisional improvement notice (PIN) if they think there has been a breach of
WHS regulations. HSRs are eligible to compensated time off for training (as required by the WHS
Act).
HSCs:
The WHS Act requires employers to create a health and safety committee (HSC) within 2 months of
being requested to do so by a HSR, five or more employees, or pursuant to the regulations. A health
and safety committee must have at least half of its members be employees, and must meet at least
every three months. They are founded to assist employers and employees in cooperating by
implementing health and safety measures and implementing and disseminating WHS standards,
rules, and procedures to employees.
Note: Policies/procedures may be sourced and adapted, rather than written from scratch.

3. Develop recordkeeping policy and procedure/s:

a. Include templates and procedures for collecting information on hazards, incidents and
actions taken, such as incident reports and risk registers.
Note: Policies, procedures, templates may be sourced and adapted, rather than written from
scratch.

Your Task to be completed – Part B

Assessment 2 – Student Info – BSBWHS521

Version 6 – Updated on 2nd April 2019
Page 14 of 24
Part B
1. Arrange with your assessor to meet with the Wollongong work group health (or an
alternative real workplace group) and safety representative (HSR). Prepare to collect
information on worker concerns and effectiveness of existing controls for risk.
Concerns regarding job dangers are addressed by a worker:
 Heavy lifting is required, and there are no available substitutes.
 Petrol-powered forklift.
 Electrical cords are left dangling in the section where administrative staff works.
 There is no information on storing, chemical handling, or MSDS.
 The warehouse, loading bay, and pickup sections are experiencing congestion.
Consultation issues include the following:
 The workers are unaware of the WHSMS's mission and objectives.
 Additionally, it encompasses the duty and procedures for the WHSMS.
 Workers simply assume that WHS is a system problem.
 The employees are unaware of how the consultation process operates.
 Workers are averse to including themselves in WHS processes.
2. In a role-play or the submission of detailed meeting notes, meet with the Wollongong HSR.
Script that minimised the Consultant's and HSR's discussion of the issues
3. Identify and seek expert advice for some aspect of planning or implementation of WHS risk
management or WHS legislation. For example:
a. determine safe storage of petrol, turpentine, poisons, paints, etc.
b. determine systems for safely directing traffic in warehouse areas.
Note: You may choose to contact your WorkCover authority for advice, for example, on
implementing aspects of the WHS Act.

Solutions to workers' worries about dangers include:

 Implementing administrative controls such as offering advice on lifting goods cautiously and
minimising load weight where possible.

 Substitution of an electric forklift for a petrol forklift results in increased performance &
eliminates exposure to exhaust pollutants.

 To make it safer, the electrical supervisor will employ engineering control in conjunction with a
cable management kit.

Assessment 2 – Student Info – BSBWHS521

Version 6 – Updated on 2nd April 2019
Page 15 of 24
 Distribute and ensure that a copy of information on storing, chemical handling, and MSDS is
available and visible throughout every store and section of the shop through administrative
controls.

 By installing a speed hump in a strategic position to redirect traffic, engineering control can be
used to alleviate the traffic issue.

Advice for resolving consultation issues:

 Announce a mandatory WHS workshop to discuss the organization's aims.

 Stipulate who is responsible for what and how the WHS process operates.

 Post displays about WHS and the shared duty of everyone involved in the store, including
management, staff, and visitors.

 Create an easily-understandable consultation procedure, with all employees expected to

cooperate with the HSR and HSC.

 Issue a note and email to all employees reminding them to adhere to the WHS protocol, since
failure to do so would constitute a violation of the legalisation.

2. Arrange with your assessor to meet with the Wollongong Store Manager. Prepare to discuss
worker concerns and possible actions to take.
3. In a role-play, meet with the Wollongong Store Manager. During the meeting, you will explain
and use your procedures to assess and record actions taken to control WHS risks. Discuss the
expert advice you researched or received.
Script for the consultation between the consultant and the store manager to find solutions
4. Develop a plan to implement appropriate measures to control risk. Include:
a. timelines, resources and actions
b. any new procedures to be developed
c. changes to procedures
d. further communication and consultation:
plan at least one meeting in detail to inform affected workers of changes and include
strategies to provide access to information and ease of understanding

e. ongoing, regular monitoring (plan for at least three monitoring activities, e.g. scheduled
audits)
f. recordkeeping or reporting actions to assist in compliance and organisational WHS
performance review.
