Academic integrity, plagiarism and collusion
Academic Integrity
Academic Integrity is about the honest presentation of your academic work. It means acknowledging the
work of others while developing your own insights, knowledge and ideas.
As a student, you are required to:
• Undertake studies and research responsibly and with honesty and integrity
• Ensure that academic work is in no way falsified
• Seek permission to use the work of others, where required
• Acknowledge the work of others appropriately
• Take reasonable steps to ensure other students cannot copy or misuse your work.
Plagiarism
TOID 41406 CRICOS Code 03762M Authorized by N. Taluja Review Date: 30/06/2021
Plagiarism means to take and use another person's ideas and or manner of expressing them and to pass
them off as your own by failing to give appropriate acknowledgement. This includes material sourced
from the internet, RTO staff, other students, and from published and unpublished work.
Plagiarism occurs when you fail to acknowledge that the ideas or work of others are being used, which
includes:
• Paraphrasing and presenting work or ideas without a reference
• Copying work either in whole or in part
• Presenting designs, codes or images as your own work
• Using phrases and passages verbatim without quotation marks or referencing the author or
web page
• Reproducing lecture notes without proper acknowledgement.
Collusion
Collusion means unauthorised collaboration on assessable work (written, oral or practical) with other
people. This occurs when a student presents group work as their own or as the work of someone else.
Collusion may be with another RTO student or with individuals or students external to the RTO. This
applies to work assessed by any educational and training body in Australia or overseas.
Collusion occurs when you work without the authorisation of the teaching staff to:
• Work with one or more people to prepare and produce work
• Allow others to copy your work or share your answer to an assessment task
• Allow someone else to write or edit your work (without rto approval)
• Write or edit work for another student
• Offer to complete work or seek payment for completing academic work for other students.
Both collusion and plagiarism can occur in group work. For examples of plagiarism, collusion and
academic misconduct in group work please refer to the RTO’s policy on Academic integrity, plagiarism and
collusion.
Plagiarism and collusion constitute cheating. Disciplinary action will be taken against students who
engage in plagiarism and collusion as outlined in RTO’s policy.
Proven involvement in plagiarism or collusion may be recorded on students’ academic file and could lead
to disciplinary action

Assessment task:
This task will take place in a simulated industry environment, which for all intents and purposes
should mirror a realistic situation. Any equipment and materials required for this will be organised by
your trainer and/or training organisation. For this activity, you will be assuming the role of a WHS
TOID 41406 CRICOS Code 03762M Authorized by N. Taluja Review Date: 30/06/2021
manager, who is employed at the Manali Restaurant for the last 12 months. Based on your
knowledge of WHS/OHS requirements and practices in the workplace related to security, emergency
and hazard management, you will need to respond the specific scenarios outlined below. Your trainer
will assume the role of the other party in each of the cases if there are no classmates who are
available to do so. In each of the given situations you will need to apply your safe practice knowledge
to respond in a manner that would satisfy legislative requirements. Your trainer will provide you with
or direct you to the following in order to complete this assessment to a satisfactory level:
Computers, software programs, printers and communication technology used to administer
the implementation and monitoring of a WHS system
Current plain English regulatory documents distributed by the local WHS government
regulator
Codes of practice and standards issued by government regulators or industry groups
WHS information and business management manuals issued by industry associations or
commercial publishers
Current commercial policies, procedures and template documents used for managing WHS
practices.
Activity 1:
As you are the WHS manager, you need to monitor the current safe work practices in the hotel by
inspecting on a day to day basis.
Whilst working in the hotel, you need to go and inspect the workplace on a daily basis in order to
identify hazards to maintain safety in the workplace. You need have found the following hazards in
workplace:
• Work areas and walkways blocked by waste, equipment, unused items, broken items etc
Spills
Hoses, wires and equipment lying around
Items that haven’t been put away.
You need to inspect the workplace in order to identify hazards in workplace to maintain the safety of
each and individual in workplace according to organisational and WHS policies and procedures.
Document any action you intend to take as a result of your observations (hazards identified through
staff processes, who you will notify or consult with, training needs identified, reports to be
completed, etc.)
Briefly comment on the effectiveness of existing procedures in maintaining the health, safety and
security of personnel and any recommendations for change. For this you need to do the following
tasks in this activity:
RP 1: Inspect the workplace area on a daily basis and monitor ongoing compliance with
organisational WHS procedures and safe work practices. You are required to monitor day-to-
day effectiveness of WHS practices in workplace in order to maintain health, safety and
security of personnel. If you see any work as non-compliance for WHS practices, you need to
take appropriate actions to address it according to organisational and WHS policies and
procedures.
RP 2: As you were completing your inspection, two staff members come to you and notify you that
one of the staff member has had a fall because of spills and loose wires. His feet got caught in
wires and he slipped, and this has caused bleeding from his nose and forehead. You notice
that some team members are not stacking the shelves correctly and according to work safety
procedures in the storeroom. You have just seen some heavy items stored on top. You are
TOID 41406 CRICOS Code 03762M Authorized by N. Taluja Review Date: 30/06/2021
looking through the WHS incident reports and notice that many of the forms are difficult to
read due to the illegibility of the handwriting. It is really important for anyone to be able to
read these documents in order to analyse the information in them. As a manger, you need to
resolve these issues and refer to the relevant authority.
RP 3: You need to conduct an inspection regarding the accident that has happened and perform a
risk assessment of the workplace in order to avoid a similar accident in future. For this, you
need to use the following templates in order to perform a risk assessment. You need to
prepare an incident or accident report and submit it to your WHS regulatory authorities.
Make sure you minimise the use of printed materials by sending reports to management
online through emails in order to reduce negative impacts on environment and waste.
Save the template locally to your computer and complete the action plan for the risk
assessment you are implementing in your workplace. Save and submit your template to your
assessor when completed.
