If you can demonstrate to your trainer that you are competent in a
particular outcome, you don’t have to do the same training again. Talk to
your trainer about having them formally recognized. If you have a
qualification or certificate of competence from previous training, show it to
your trainer. If the skills you acquired are still current and relevant to the
unit/s of competency they may become part of evidence you can present to
RPL. If you are not sure about the currency of your skills discuss this with
your trainer.

Outcome
The hospitality industry is a fast paced environment and as such can be rife
with workplace health and safety hazards. With the high number of casual
staff members employed throughout the industry, the additional burden of
ensuring each staff member is adequately trained and follows the correct
WH&S procedure is part of running a business in this game.
Most staff duties in this industry require some sort of manual labor like
lifting, pushing, cleaning, cooking etc. The hazards may include slips, trips
and falls, exposure to hazardous substances, and cutting oneself.

IDENTIFY KEY HAZARDOUS AREAS/SITUATIONS
Prevention will always be better than cure. In the workplace such as club,
pub and hotel venues, you will have areas that are high risk. Cleaning the
beer lines, for example, is one of the more important jobs needing to be
addressed. Identify your hazard, and document safe work processes, so staff
understand what is required of them.

Brainstorm the worst-case scenarios. Ask yourself what you would do if
the worst happened. What if a fire broke out in your boiler room? Or a
hurricane hit your building head-on? Or a train carrying hazardous waste
derailed while passing your loading dock? Once you have identified potential
emergencies, consider how they would affect you and your workers and how
you would respond.
What is an emergency action plan?
An emergency action plan covers designated actions employers and
employees must take to ensure employee safety from fire and other
emergencies. Not all employers are required to establish an emergency
action plan. See the flowchart on page 11 to determine if you are. Even if
you are not specifically required to do so, compiling an emergency action
plan is a good way to protect yourself, your employees, and your business
during an emergency.
Putting together a comprehensive emergency action plan that deals with all
types of issues specific to your worksite is not difficult.
You may find it beneficial to include your management team and employees
in the process. Explain your goal of protecting lives and property in the
event of an emergency, and ask for their help in establishing and
implementing your emergency action plan. Their commitment and support
are critical to the plan’s success.
What should your emergency action plan include?
When developing your emergency action plan, it’s a good idea to look at a
wide variety of potential emergencies that could occur in your workplace. It
should be tailored to your worksite and include information about all
potential sources of emergencies. Developing an emergency action plan
means you should do a hazard assessment to determine what, if any,
physical or chemical hazards in your workplaces could cause an emergency.
If you have more than one worksite, each site should have an emergency
action plan.
At a minimum, your emergency action plan must include the following:

A cluttered and untidy workplace can lead to low productivity, worker
dissatisfaction and re-occurring accidents. The 5S Principles can help
identify and eliminate wastage to achieve a more organized and safer
working environment.

items, and other non-essential
materials on site.
Determine how frequent you
use workplace items or tools
(daily, weekly, monthly, or never) and apply the red tagging technique
when unsure in the removal of items. Red tagged materials must undergo
verification before taking necessary action.
Temporarily store items that are difficult to classify.

Sustaining good practices and improvements is never easy. The final step of

environment. The Sustain concept will require self-discipline and
compliance to new approaches. Here are four key points to keep in mind:
5S + Safety = 6S
Many businesses and organizations have included an additional step to the
5S principle - “Safety.” The goal of the sixth step is to identify workplace

hazards as you go while implementing the five housekeeping steps. By
keeping Safety in mind along with 5S, you not only focus on making your
workplace clean and tidy but also ensure that it is safe at all times.
The 5S method is not a difficult concept to understand and when applied
successfully and consistently, can lead to improved employee productivity,
safety, and quality of work.

1. Explain ways to protect the environment.
Let's be honest: The argument over whether "going green" should really be a
priority for the hospitality industry is over. It is a priority and it has to be a
priority for a number of reasons, including customer loyalty, cost savings,
and most importantly, environmental impact.
There are more than 50,000 hotels and hospitality properties in the US, and
anywhere between 200,000 and 400,000 globally. Collectively they are a
huge source of resource consumption and waste, and while an individual
hotel's green initiatives may not make a measurable difference in the grand
scheme of things, think about what could happen if each one of those
properties made even one of the changes listed below.
Exciting, isn't it? Your hotel can genuinely play a part in saving the
environment, and here are some of the ways to do it:
2. Embrace Recycling
Another huge impact the hospitality industry has on the environment is due
to the amount of waste hotels create. It's time to embrace recycling, and
we're not just talking about using cloth napkins instead of paper.
Put cards in each room asking guests to turn out the lights when they leave,
or reuse towels if possible. Make recycling bins readily available to guests

and be sure that they are aware of your green programs. When guests see
that your hotel is making an effort to help the environment, they will
generally want to do their part as well.
4. Start Composting
5. Save Water
There are so many ways hotels can save water: Installing toilet tank fill
diverters in older toilets can save about 3/4 of a gallon of water per flush.
Transitioning to low water laundry machines can save up to 80% of hotel
water usage. Making water stations available to guests can discourage the
use of bottled water. Follow the examples from other hotels that have
implemented water-saving initiatives.
6. Plant a Garden
Now you don't have to go that far, but even a small garden (perhaps even on
the rooftop for those of you with city properties) can help counteract your
hotel's carbon footprint. Raised beds can be installed almost anywhere, and
placing benches—made from recycled materials—around a garden can make
for a wonderful guest experience.
