BSBHRM524 Coordinate workforce plan implementation - Clinton Institute
Assessment Task: CASE STUDY
Case Study - Background Information
It has been twelve (12) months since you coordinated the implementation of the JP Catering Workforce Plan to achieve the following agreed workforce objectives
JP Catering Workforce Objectives (Agreed last year)
• Expansion into NSW in the next twelve (12) months
• Expand operations by 100% in the next two (2) years
• Reduce staff turnover to a maximum of 10 % pa
• All Front-of-House staff must hold a current RSA & Food handing Certificate
• All Kitchen staff must hold a minimum of a Certificate III in Hospitality Commercial cookery
The last twelve (12) months have been very challenging with global trends in the hospitality industry moving to a solely casual employment model to safeguard organisations following a global pandemic, forcing all hospitality businesses to cease trading , and/or change trade to take-away meals only, for a periods of time, whist maintaining running costs such a salaries, rental lease on the office premises etc..
In addition, JP Catering suffered a number of cancellations due to bush fires over the summer months.
It has been identified (as a potential issue), that a large percentage of the current workforce are university students aged 17-22 who are relying on the position to sustain them through their time of study. This will not assist in obtaining retention or age diversity objectives.
Despite the challenges over the past twelve (12) months, JP Catering has managed to navigate these challenges to achieve the following outcomes
During the last twelve (12) months JP Catering has achieved the following:
• Expanded the business operations into Sydney (NSW)
• Increase operations by 25%
• Current staff turnover 14%
• All front-of-house staff now hold a current RSA & Food handing Certificate
• JP Catering hold quarterly training opportunities for staff to update their RSA & Food handing Certificate
• All Kitchen staff now hold a minimum of a Certificate III in Hospitality Commercial cookery
