Carefully read the following:
Grow Management Consultants is a management consultancy business that was established 7 years ago
by Mark Woodward. The business started with 2 employees, being Mark as the Principal Consultant and an
Administration Officer. The business has grown significantly over the last 5 years and now employs 21 staff,
including 5 Principal Consultants, 5 Senior Consultants (1 of the Consultants is a part-time worker, 3 days a
week and two of the Senior Consultants have recently joined the organisation on a contract basis for up to
one year), 4 Customer Service Officers, a General Manager and a Human Resources Manager and Human
Resources Assistant (part-time, 2 days a week).
Mark is now the CEO of the company and manages the 5 Principal Consultants. Barry, one of the Principal
Consultants manages the five Senior Consultants. The General Manager is the Manager for all of the
remaining staff. There are two offices, one in the CBD and the other in an outer suburb. A new Strategic
Plan has been recently been developed to guide the organisation over the next three years.
Three years ago as the business started to take on more staff, a performance management system was
discussed but never implemented. With the development and implementation of the new Strategic Plan and
the emphasis on developing staff, the CEO is committed to the development of a new performance
management process to address the needs of the organisation.
Currently the organisation has a number of human resources policies and procedures in place, including a
recruitment, selection and induction policy and procedure and a termination policy and procedure.
Complete the following activities:
1. Develop performance management processes
As the newly appointed Human Resources Manager, you have been tasked with developing and
implementing a performance management system for Grow Management Consultants. You are required to
review the existing human resources policy and procedures as well as the organisation’s Strategic Plan and
develop a proposed performance management process for Grow Management Consultants. You should
document this in a report to present to the management team for feedback and approval.
The first part of this assessment requires you to review the scenario information to identify the issues that
need to be considered when developing an updated performance management process for the organisation.
You should also review and analyse the Strategic Plan to identify relevant objectives and policies that
should be reflected in the revised performance management processes. You should also review existing
human resources policies and procedures to identify where a performance management process can fit in
with existing processes.

Assessment Task 3 Instructions
Carefully read the following email received from one of the Managers at Grow Management Consultants.
Dear Human Resources Manager
I am writing to discuss an issue that I am currently having with a staff member, Janice White.
As you know, Janice was employed as an Administration Officer some months ago. Her work is of a high
standard, but unfortunately she is consistently late for work – usually somewhere between 30 minutes and
an hour. She does make this time up at the end of the day, but it creates problems for us at the beginning of
the day, as there is no one to answer phones and other staff who are also trying to do their own work then
have to answer phones.
I am unsure of how to approach this situation and I’ve also been told that Janice is having some personal
issues. Janice’s next performance review isn’t for another three months.
I would appreciate your feedback on this matter.
Kind Regards
Manager
Complete the following activities:
1. Advise on performance monitoring and intervention
Based on your review of the above case study information and the performance management processes
that you developed in the previous assessment task, send an email to the Manager (your assessor) advising
of the performance management process that must be followed, including documenting of all associated
meetings and correspondence.
Your email must be in clear and concise English.

Assume you receive a further email from the Manager as follows:
Dear Human Resources Manager
I had what I thought was a good chat with Janice about her ongoing lateness. Janice confided in me about
her personal problems and as I suggested she access the company’s counsellor.
We also talked about the need for Janice to ensure she is on time as the phones need to be answered and
this is part of her job role. It is clearly stated in her job description. Janice advised that she will ensure she is
on time but she also said that she thinks it is unfair that other staff are able to work flexible working
arrangements and that she isn’t. She also emphasized that she always makes up for the time at the end of
the day when she is late.
For the last two weeks, Janice has been on time despite her disagreement with her work arrangements.
However, she has started to be consistently late again. I spoke to her again and this time Janice said that
she isn’t prepared to always have to arrive at 9 am when other staff have flexible working arrangements.
She said she’d try and be there most of the time but couldn’t always guarantee it.
She also has not accessed the counselling service to my knowledge. Janice is a hard worker bur the
situation is not acceptable. Please advise of the next formal steps that should be taken.
Kind Regards
Manager
2. Advise on dispute resolution procedures
Carefully review the case study information above, as well as the information at the following link and the

Review the following email received from the Office Manager
Hi Human Resources Manager
Recently four of my staff attended a successful communication techniques workshop with Sales Training
Australia. The cost of the session was $200 per staff member.
All of the staff came back after the all day workshop complaining of the following:
The workshop was very disorganised – it was supposed to start at 9.30 am and finally commenced
at 10.30 am due to technical problems with the projector.
The content of the workshop was, according to staff, ‘101’ communication techniques and no one
learnt anything.
There was no practical component – it was a dry lecture format.
Under the circumstances I would like the human resources department as the organiser of this training to
put in a complaint to this provider and seek compensation of some form.
Kind Regards
Manager
6. Negotiate remedial action
Review the information above and consider what form of remedial action you could seek from the training
provider. Based on your review, write an email to the provider to outline the issues and to negotiate remedial
action.
7. File documents
File all the documents that you have developed and been provided with in clear and logical files as you
would in a real workplace situation. Take screen shots that show how you have organised all of your files
within folders.
