consultation/whs-duties-consultation.

b. conflict management processes.

Note: Describe the processes that should be followed by employees to manage conflict. In your
processes, consider:

● cultural and social sensitivities.

Employees should be respectful of each other’s cultures and backgrounds and work together
to find a solution that is acceptable to all parties involved. Example; The HR Support Officer
complained that the Learning and Development Officer often made remarks about her
clothing (burka) and would use negative facial features when referring to her working from
home arrangement. The HR Manager sent an email to address the ethical misconduct of the
Learning and Development Officer towards the HR Support Officer. The HR Manager
created a poster to visually display the staff code of conduct principles. He also provided
guidance and counselling to the Learning and Development Officer on appropriate cultural
respect and body language awareness.

● differences in interpersonal, communication styles and leadership styles.

Employees should be aware of the differences and try to find a solution that takes these
differences into account. Example: The staff of Boutique Build Australia experienced
communication difficulty due to the HR Support Officer’s accent and fast walking habit, the
HR Manager decided to email HR Support Officer explaining the feedback he had received.
As part of the email he would provide a few of the you-tube video links on effective
communication. He would also follow up with a coaching session on communication.

● communication mechanisms

Are the channels or methods used to convey information between individuals or groups. It
can be in many ways. One of them is In - person conversation.Example: After meeting with
the HR Support officer, the HR Manager met with the Learning and Development Officer. He
explained the feedback he had from the HR Support Officer about the Learning and
Development Officer’s improved ethical conduct but emphasised that the body language had
not improved. The HR Manager also asked for the Learning and Development officer’s
feedback on his management and leadership skills regarding workplace management. The
Learning and Development Officer expressed his disappointment that he had never been
asked for his side of the story that had led to the unethical conduct and continued raised
eyebrows. He requested that in future, all stakeholders’ opinions, experiences and points of
view be considered and documented before corrective actions or support planned.

c. processes for escalated issues (e.g. a hierarchy of responsibility to refer to relevant personnel).

Note: Describe processes that include:

● responsibilities of managers in disputes

Australian Pacific International College I ABN: 11642992881 I CRICOS Provider: 03971B I National Provider: 45784 I Page 10

3. Appeal of decision
