Assessment Task 1: Briefing Report
Task summary
This assessment task requires you, in the role of the Recruitment Manager of Aus Accountancy, to review documentation and develop a briefing report for the CEO and make changes based on feedback.
Instructions
Carefully read the following:
Aus Accountancy is a large accountancy firm with 25 staff in a range of diverse roles. Located in one office, based in Sydney, there are a variety of different teams within the office.
The Staffing roles within each of the teams have a range of different skill sets that required to run the business, ranging from senior management staff to entry-level staff.
The company is in a period of expansion and needs to ensure that it can access a sufficient number of qualified staff. Over the last 12 months, the company has found it challenging to attain and maintain adequately trained staff. As a result, the CEO has decided to address this by rolling out a 'Set for Skilling' program.
The CEO hopes that this program will help increase staff retention and reap all the benefits of a highly skilled, diverse workplace.
The success of the Set for Skilling Program relies on your ability to work as a Recruitment Manager managing the program implementation. A vital part of the implement is your ability to educate the staff on the Aus Accountancy diversity policy in the roll out of the Set for Skilling Program.
Complete the following activities:
1. Access and review the Aus Accountancy Set for Skilling Program Documents in your student resource folder and locate and review the diversity policy for Aus Accountancy from within the documents and familiarise yourself with the Dispute Resolution Policy and associated procedures.
Critically review the diversity policy and determine if it is suitable or if an update is required. Your aim within the review is to ensure that the program is effectively implemented and that as the backbone of the program it is understood and acted upon by all staff and to ensure it aligns with the Set for Skilling Program. It needs to include clear procedures for staff to be able to follow and must include a procedure for ensuring diversity in selecting and recruiting staff.
Review the legislative requirements that are applicable to the program. Due to the recruitment changes imposed by the program, the business will now be required to adhere to legislation in all states, instead of just NSW and the diversity policy also needs to reflect this.
2. Develop a Briefing Report for the CEO
Based on your review completed, develop a briefing report for the CEO detailing your feedback and suggestions for changes to the policy and development of procedures along with ideas on strategies you plan to take to ensure the Set for Skilling program is effectively implemented, acted on and understood by the various program stakeholders, including new and existing staff.
