Project 1 Explain how, when working, you would find out what was expected of you and what work standards would be expected of you. How would this knowledge impact on the ways in which you organise your time and manage your work tasks? When working in a workplace I would firstly be expected to find out what the relevant industry standards are and what the organisational goals are within their workplace. I would find out what was expected from the job description that has been assigned to me and a thorough explanation on the job description so that both my employee and I are clear on what is expected by me. Also having a clear understanding of customer expectations and values is essential, as they are important to meet the demands and thus assists the organisation in achieving their personal goals.
As the nature and type of work changes within an organisation, so do the skills requirements. An organisation must measure the skills levels of its workforce in order to plan for the future - appraisals, awards, certificates etc Workforce profiles - This means that a manager can view and monitor the types of employee working for the business. They usually include details such as age, gender, ethnicity and availability. Knowing ages can help you plan for the future and also ensures that you fulfill any legislation requirements. Large gaps in ages can cause problems so this allows you to combat this.
