Question: You are required to develop another roster for a given period as outlined to you by your trainer below. If this is concurrent with the roster developed in Part A, identify 5 options for economical approaches e.g. combining workplace tasks ; staggering start and finish times or similar. Your colleagues have told you that the roster during period 1 was insufficient in terms of staff mix and numbers to handle Friday and Saturday nights due to the high frequency and variance of different meals ordered If you work in a different department apply this issue in that area). Reflect this in your next roster by including 1 additional level 1 or 2 and 1 additional staff at level 3 during the evening service (or e.g. check out/reception - during the morning shift).

Once you have established the shift/rostering requirements you are required to interview each staff member and identify any special social, religious, family or other requirements to be considered for the purpose of the roster period. 

Where any special request have been made, document these in the table overleaf and obtain a signature for the relevant staff member to verify your communication provisions.

Your roster must ensure:

1. Adequate skill mix supported by award/grade listed for each staff member on the roster
2. Effectiveness of rostering times to keep overtime and allowances to a minimum
3. All shift allowances according job roles and details provided to you (e.g. tool allowance, split shift allowance etc. as these apply)
4. Provisions of meal breaks in line with legislation
