Students have access to an assessment appeals process to challenge the outcome within 20
working days of the assessment decision being made.
The appeal is required to be submitted in writing with relevant evidence documentation
provided.
The Institute will respond within 3 working days of the receipt of appeal to confirm it has been
received.
The Institute will review the appeal and inform student of the outcome within 10 working days
of the receipt of appeal.
The outcome will outline information on student’s next steps including process for further
appeal process.
Reasonable adjustment refers to adjustments made for students with a disability, condition or
special learning need.
Students can make a request for reasonable adjustment during their enrolment.
Each case is considered individually and the all relevant circumstances are considered in
Re-Assessment Process and Plagiarism, Collusion and Cheating – Information for Students
Re-Assessment Process
If the evidence is graded as NS – Not Satisfactory you will be required to re-submit the
evidence. In this case, you will be provided with clear and constructive feedback based on the
assessment decision so that they can improve your skills / knowledge prior to reassessment.
Where a ‘NS – Not Satisfactory’ judgement is made, you will be given guidance on steps to
take to improve your performance and provided the opportunity to resubmit evidence to
demonstrate competence. The assessor will determine and discuss the reasons for NS – Not
Satisfactory on any of the criteria and will assess you through a different method of
assessment e.g. verbal/oral questioning, problem solving exercises.
You will be notified within 10 working days of undertaking an assessment of your result in
achieving competency
o If a student does not complete the assessment, they should notify their trainer as to
why they did not complete the assessment and if due to illness, a medical certificate
must be produced and apply for Special Consideration in accordance to MITP91
Special Consideration Policy and Procedure.
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.
Collusion means: understanding or agreement between two or more people to intentionally cooperate
and gain an unfair advantage in assessment.
A safe environment that meets the training package requirements and conditions of
assessments by having adequate access to:
o relevant workplace documentation and resources
o case studies
o interaction with other students for discussions

For this task, you will demonstrate the skills and knowledge required to establish and
maintain effective and compliant participation arrangements for managing WHS. You will also
demonstrate the skills and knowledge required to establish and maintain procedures for
effectively identifying hazards and assessing and controlling risks.
Using the WHS policy and planning you developed in Assessment Task 1, you will undertake
consultation and manage WHS risk. You will develop or source and adapt risk management
and recordkeeping procedures, participate in two consultation role-plays or provide detailed
consultation meeting notes, follow risk management procedures, and plan follow-up
activities for ongoing risk management. You will also need to identify sources of expert
advice and seek input.
You must assess the performance as per the performance criteria and checklist provided.
Your assessor will assess your work according to the given performance criteria/
performance checklist.
You may attach a separate sheet if required.
You must include the following particulars in the footer section of each page of the attached
sheets:
o Student ID or Student Name
o Unit ID or Unit Code
o Course ID or Course Code
o Trainer and assessor name
o Page numbers
You must staple the loose sheets together along with the cover page.
You must attach the loose sheets chronologically as per the page numbers.
Correction fluid and tape are not permitted. Please do any corrections by striking through the
incorrect words with one or two lines and rewriting the correct words.
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.
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.
Suggestion.
Control Engineering.

Implementing administrative controls such as offering advice on lifting goods cautiously and

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.
By installing a speed hump in a strategic position to redirect traffic, engineering control can be
used to alleviate the traffic issue.
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.
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.
Implementation plan:
5. Submit all required documentation to your assessor as per the specifications below. Keep
copies for your records.
