Assess the existing staff skills and abilities against the optimal staff skills and abilities:
As I have selected three department heads they are
- Liquor Manager.
- Grocery Manager
- Bakery Manager
As we are all aware that no one is perfect there is always something which we need to look. There are some gaps in those department heads professional life
- Grocery Manager: He is having good personality about the thing he need to look his leadership skills. Sometime he is not able to convince his point though he may be right at that time. To overcome that he is attending workshops on leadership training.
- Liquor manager: He is hard working and charming personality but sometime he is not able to make some strategic decisions. So we are arranging some strategic development programme for him with his consent.
- Bakery Manager: Bakery manager is also a hardworking and energetic personality but he is not introducing many new things in bakery that might be possible that he is not having knowledge of the new products, that is why I have arranged a session with him that what are the issues he is facing does he need any training if so then we can do some arrangement from our company side. Or does he need more staff to do the things properly (Supervisor, dispatch, 2017).
Recommendation regarding organisational structure, staff Production and training and staff number.
Organisational structure is Hierarchical based but I personally recommend that if we make it accessible for each and every staff that if they are not feeling that there issues are not being addressed by the seniors they can contact the owner or managing director easily by fixing prior appointment.
Staff Production and training: In that we have designed a programme in that every six months. We will give bonus to the staff so that they will feel more like good of environment and they will work more hard towards the benefits of the company. We have in house training schedules where we provide training to our employees but we are designing programme and we have contacted with other organisations where we can send our employees for training.
Staff numbers: Currently we are focusing on permanent full time staff members which are costing more to the company. We have designed a programme with which help we are going to hire part time and contract based staff to whom we should be able to call when we need them in our busy time period. This will help to maintain the budget of the company (Manager A. , 2017).
In our organisation we have to work according to the guide lines of the Food Stuff, but internally there are many ways with which we can improve our staff skills at high level.
In our organisation we value people or work force which is a key to our success.
We also put stress to develop leadership qualities in our organisation.
Improvement is the structure.
1 .Currently we are not having any policy for assistant manager in our departments but in future we will introduce the policy to bring assistant manager so that in case if manager leaves or on sick leave his or her department work shouldn’t suffer in his/her absent.
2. Currently owner is looking all legal matters but in future we are going to make a policy and some of legal matters can be looked after by our Lawyer as well to cut the Burdon of our owner operator (Supervisor, dispatch, 2017).
Describe alternatives for staffing the operation in terms of their ability to meet organization needs.
Supervisor as Manager:
If manager of any department is going on leave or having suddenly sick leave and coming back to work after some time then rather than hiring someone owner can take over the position but he need some qualities to perform that job.
Skills needed:
- Great leadership quality

Team Leader as Supervisor:
At, LSG SKYCHEF if Supervisor of the assembly department suddenly called sick then his/ her duties needs to be performed by team leader in his/her absence and that is the responsibility of the manager to do the task done by the staff.

- Time management
- Also, as the face of the team, a personable appearance along with a professional behaviour is an asset. Due to the fact that you’ll encounter hundreds of staff on a daily basis, patience is a virtue.
- Apart from that, great attention to detail, the ability to stand for long durations, and interpersonal and communication skills will work to your advantage.

Our LSG SKYCHEF is proud to have equal gender participation in our workforce. In our restaurant both men and women are working and they get equal pay. Our workplace practices and policies promote equal opportunity for all employees – irrespective of gender. With such diversity across service type, employment options, locations and industry sectors, Spotless is truly committed to gender equality across its workforce. Both males and females workers are work at same pay rate.
Employment conditions that must be covered in the employment agreement
Great business connections start with a decent appointment so that everybody has clear assumptions about the part, working conditions and business rights.
All business is work in accordance with some basic honesty between a business and employees for the benefit of their individuals. Bosses must not unduly impact representatives to join or not join a union.
These are sketched out in the Employment Relations Act 2000.
Paye, ACC
At LSG SKYCHEF, If an employee has met with any accident or injury then he should be covered under the ACC (Accident Compensation Corporation):-
- If accident or injury related with the workplace then, the employer has to pay “first week compensation” which is equal to the 80% of the earnings of the employees
- Employer doesn’t have to pay the employee if he is getting weekly compensation from ACC.
- If the time period of leave of ACC is 5 or more days then employer and employee can agree with that employer will top up the ACC payment from 80 to 100% by using the one day of the employee’s sick leave for every five days’ leave taken (ACC at Workplace, 2017).
Human Rights
Discrimination means when one person is treated unfairly than another person for the same situation or work then you have to take action.
At LSG SKYCHEF, it is duty of the employers to take necessary steps to stop the type of discrimination and harassment. This includes harassment by employees or clients. This all related with the human right which is common for all workers (Human rights/business-and-work, 2017).
Equal employment opportunity
In LSG SKYCHEF all Staff, including those that fall under the protected classes, have an equal opportunity for employment and advancement within an organization. There is no space for any kind of discrimination in our organization on any grounds like age, national origin, Color, disability, sex, and in some cases family status. The employee must prove they were discriminated against when they were treated differently because of their status in one of those protected classes (Manager, 2017).
2.2
Collective agreements
There are set procedures for negotiating a collective agreement and these must be complied with by all parties. These procedures are set out in detail under Collective bargaining contents. These systems are set out in detail under Collective dealing strategies .This must agree to various lawful necessities.

• In writing

1. Contrary to law, or
2. Inconsistent with the ERA (Agreements, 2017).
Contract for Service in LSG SKYCHEF
A contract of services has been different from an “contract for services”, the articulation modified to infer the separating line between a man who is “utilized” and somebody who is “independently employed”. The reason for the separating line is to credit rights to a few sorts of individuals who work for others. This could be the privilege to a lowest pay permitted by law, occasion pay, debilitated leave, reasonable expulsion, a composed explanation of the agreement, the privilege to sort out in a union and so on. The assumption is that truly independently employed individuals ought to have the capacity to care for their own issues, and in this manner work they improve the situation others ought not convey with it a commitment to take care of these rights (Manager, 2017).
Short term contracts
In LSG SKYCHEF an employee may be employed under a contract for a limited duration or short term. An employee whose contract is for a specified fixed term of two years or more may agree in writing to exclude any right to a redundancy payment or, for contracts of one year or more, to complain of unfair dismissal although this will be effective only where the term expires without renewal, not if the contract is terminated at some earlier date. Short term contract workers are often known as temporary workers or casual workers. See typical workers, fixed term contract. But there are no such types of employees in our organisation as on now.
Explain the obligations for the provision of information and advice to the employees in relation to the requirements of the employment Relations Act.
These obligations stand regardless of whether we hire one employee part-time for two hours per day, or have multiple employees on full-time contracts. The Employment Relations Act is the legislative foundation of all relationships between employees and employers in New Zealand.
The Employment Relations Act covers a range of topics including:
- Recruiting, and selecting the right candidate for the job.
- Written employment agreements.
- Trial and probation periods.
- Union membership.
- Workplace training and development.
The objective of the Act is to maintain fair and productive relationships between employers and their employees.
Workplace based on the below mention conditions:-
- Recognizing that employment relationships must be built on mutual trust and confidence as well as certain legislative or legal protections
- Understanding that there is a degree of inequality of power in employment relationships that needs to be mutually understood
- Respecting the integrity of individual choice
- Promoting mediation as the primary problem-solving mechanism – reducing the need for judicial intervention (Requirement of ERA, 2017).
Identify and explain the procedures for settling personal grievance and Employment disputes in terms of legal requirements and principles of natural justice.
Under The Employment Relations Act all employees of LSG SKYCHEF has right to pursue a personal grievance if they have any of the following complaints:
Unjustifiable dismissal or action at LSG SKYCHEF.
At LSG SKYCHEF an employee has a right to complaint against the personal grievance. This must be done within 90 days of when the grievance occurred or came to his or her attention. However, the LSG SKYCHEF may consent to a personal grievance being raised after that time. If they don’t give consent the employee may apply to the Employment Relations Authority to be allowed to raise the personal grievance after the 90 day period. As noted above, if the employee has been given notice of dismissal during a trial period, a personal grievance may not be raised for unjustified dismissal unless the personal grievance was about discrimination or harassment.
Sexual harassment by a person in authority
At LSG SKYCHEF, An employee is also sexually harassed in the employment, if that person who is in under the employ of the employer or who is a customer or client of the employer, makes a complaint against such employer that he pressurise him for making directly or indirectly sexual intercourse or sexual contact then such employer will be punished under New Zealand law.
Duress
In some situations at LSG SKYCHEF, employees could be subjected to duress by their employer
Duress can occur when an employer or an employer’s representative says that an employee must have to do this act if he wants to keep his job safe.
If employer threatens to employees or disadvantage the employee, in order to get an employee to leave or join a union or an employees’ organization or a proposed one, or
It is undue influence if the employer takes the advantage or threatens to disadvantage an employee to try and stop the employee from acting on behalf of other employees.
Discrimination
Discrimination in the workplace is a major concern in today’s business community. The increase in cultural and gender diversity in the workplace has obligated employees from different ethnicities and backgrounds to work together work together to meet the goals of the company. Unfortunately, differences between people have a tendency to lead to misunderstandings, and result in conflict and discrimination. But in LSG SKYCHEF, all employees and employer are treated equally without any discrimination. Employers have a responsibility to their workers to protect them from discrimination and unfair treatment in the workplace.
Disadvantages:-
Make sure that each party to the dispute must be her before reach on a final decision, so that no one should be ignore without giving him opportunity to prove his innocence (Community-law, 2017).

Potential sources of training at LSG SKYCHEF
At LSG SKYCHEF our Internal Human Resource Manager looks for training needs of new employees.
- Regular management reports tell about sale or inventory problems about trends in turnover, or grievances about an array of things that cause Human Resource managers to ask whether human performance could be a cause. Special reports and requests reveal future plans, shifting priorities, problem areas, successes, failures—many of which either result from human. They reveal new strategies and programs that may require people to do things they have never done before. That means potential inadequate human inventories, and inadequate human inventories are symptoms of potential training needs.
- New Machinery usually means new training for old staff sometimes new positions.
- New products, which can result only if a new technology (or significant amendments to old technologies) are acquired by significant numbers of employees.
- Changes in standards, as we have noted so many times, inevitably mean that large numbers of people must be informed—and sometimes trained. Frequently, incumbents need a chance to express their feelings about the change, to understand the reasons for the new standard so that they can accept it more easily—or at least respond effectively by “going along with it (Supervisor, dispatch, 2017).”
Self-management and professional development for LSG SKYCHEF
At LSG SKYCHEF effective self-management understands own strengths and development needs. They show personal responsibility, initiative, creativity and enterprise with a commitment to learning and self-improvement. They actively embrace change, responding positively to new priorities, coping with challenges and looking for opportunities. Self-management skills do not stand in isolation. They underpin the other skills that people need in their repertoire to become fully effective in learning, the workplace and in life. The resources in Self-managers and Reflective learners will help you understand how making the learning process explicit in your teaching can promote self-management and development.
For professional development we are having a policy of sponsorship scheme if any employee is keen to learn more new things they need to register with Human resource Department then the manager will let them know when their turn comes on (Supervisor, dispatch, 2017).
Organization procedures followed by LSG SKYCHEF
A procedure is a means to an end. Procedures are step by step instructions, prescribing an exact sequence of action. A procedure explains how to and who (which position) will implement the policy. At LSG SKYCHEF procedures are specific, factual and succinct. They may include timelines, specific forms to be used and template forms. Procedures assist in eliminating common misunderstandings which can result in costly mistakes.

- Explain when to take actions
- Describe emergency procedures
- Include warnings and cautions
- Give examples

Personal goals of staff at LSG SKYCHEF
Employees want to see how their work contributes to larger corporate objectives, and setting the right targets makes this connection explicit for them, and for you, as their manager. Goal-setting is particularly important as a mechanism for providing on-going and year-end feedback. By establishing and monitoring targets, you can give your employees real-time input on their performance while motivating them to achieve more (Supervisor, dispatch, 2017).

All employees of LSG SKYCHEF including supervisors, managers, former employees, and applicants for employment, regardless of grade level or position, are covered under this legislation. The Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972, which amended the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to include public employees, granted enforcement authority to the Civil Service Commission (now the Office of Personnel Management) to ensure non-discrimination in human resources actions and to establish affirmative employment measures (Recruitement, 2017).

- To set out everyone’s individual responsibility in both making themselves aware of the policy and their responsibility to resolve matters as quickly and as confidentially as possible
- To provide methods of resolution for staff and students in which they have a number of opportunities, both formal and informal, to resolve their individual situations.

Minimize the negative effects on remaining staff and affected persons
Change is an inevitable part of business; however, for some it is an easier process to deal with than it is for others. In fact, some employees put up resistance to the process, which can have some negative effects for the company in question. These effects can be widespread and may affect the morale of the staff if they are not addressed in a timely manner. Understanding the negative effects of resistance to change in your organization is the first step.
When staff resist a change taking place at work, they may feel less optimistic and hopeful about their professional future with the company. This is particularly so if there is a lack of communication regarding the change. Among other negative effects of resistance to change, lowered morale can spread throughout the entire staff, which can in turn cause issues with both recruiting and retention (Manager A. , 2017).
Natural justice
Things just aren’t fair for business managers when it comes to creating perceptions of justice in the workplace. Every time they allocate resources or recognize one employee above another, they risk the ill will of those left behind or disappointed. Yet promotions must be given. Salaries must be allocated. In some cases layoffs must be made.
The first component of organizational justice is called distributive because it deals with the allocations that some get and others do not. In most cases, members of an organization feel justify treated as long as they receive rewards in accordance with how much they contribute. An individual who earns less than another may feel justly treated, as long as that individual also contributes less to the organization. Likewise, a person who is paid equally to another may feel unjustly treated if he or she contributes substantially more (Community-law, 2017).
Legal requirements
Employers manage and conduct their work activities in such a manner as to ensure the safety, health and welfare of employees. A risk assessment is carried out by the employer or person in control of the place of work.
Transport hazards that exist in the workplace must be assessed as part of this risk assessment and appropriate steps taken to eliminate or reduce any risks found (Supervisor, dispatch, 2017).
Professional advice on human resources, labor relations or arbitration
Employee and labor relations are the bread and butter of human resources. While the visible, external face of HR for most employees is in the area of recruitment, compensation and benefits, HR is at the core of employee and labor relations, working with unions, representing management in labor relations forums and underpinning the disciplinary process throughout the organization (Human labour, 2017).
Discipline
HR is responsible for discipline throughout the LSG SKYCHEF. Typically, the HR department writes or reviews disciplinary actions, ensuring the documentation meets legal standards and does not pose liability issues for the company. HR monitors discipline across the company, so that an employee in one division can be reasonably assured of receiving the same level of discipline as a similarly situated employee working for a different manager in another division of the organization. HR stores disciplinary documentation in the employee’s personnel file for future reference and sometimes maintains statistical information on the disciplinary measures issued for analysis purposes (Human labour, 2017).
Negotiations and Information
LSG SKYCHEF, HR typically is heavily involved with the labour negotiations process. Often, the chief negotiator representing management at the table is an employee from the company’s HR department, and that person typically also is responsible for keeping the CEO, board and top executives informed about bargaining activity. In LSG SKYCHEF, HR must find out the priorities of each division to assess management’s goals for collective bargaining, then gather and analyse relevant information. HR typically responds to the union’s information requests and could run various reports from the HR information system as needed (Supervisor, dispatch, 2017).
Conclusion: – I am concluding that every business has a human resource department who is working in the managing the staff. As a human resource manager, I conclude that my business cover all the aspect of the employment and prohibit the illegal act against any worker or employees. I can say that my leading departments follow the all legal requirement which are necessary for the protection of wages and benefits of my employees are fulfilled.
