Role playing - Role-playing is the changing of one's behaviour to assume a role, either unconsciously to fill a social role, or consciously to act out an adopted role.

2. Adapt, amend or develop the required policies and procedure/s for WHS risk management for your organisation. You must:
a. identify inadequacies/shortages in existing policies
b. define the organisation’s approach to WHS risk management and commitment to legal compliance
c.
include procedures for: i. identifying hazards
ii. analysing the level of risk for each hazard
iii. using the hierarchy of control 3 to determine appropriate treatment of risks and ensure compliance with WHS legislation
iv. ongoing risk management practices such as risk audits, observations,
performance review and consultation
v. reassessing the identification of hazards at the initial stages of any workplace change to ensure that new hazards are not created by the proposed changes and existing hazards are controlled
d. identify all required resources. Refer to and assist the organisation in complying with consultation requirements under the WHS Act, including where procedures should identify duty holders and their responsibilities.

Note: Policies and procedures may be sourced and adapted, rather than written.

Allow 15–20 minutes to prepare for the role-play. Develop some open-ended questions to ask the workers and HSR during the exercise. For example, questions could start with: ● ‘Tell me about…’

The hierarchy of control is a system for controlling risks in the workplace. The hierarchy of control is a step-by-step approach to eliminating or reducing risks and it ranks risk controls from the highest level of protection and reliability through to the lowest and least reliable protection.

● ‘Can you expand on…?’
● ‘Could you talk to me about…?’
Your task is to discuss and agree on worker participation arrangements in accordance with WHS legislation. The following simulations will apply to your role-play:
a. During the discussion, the HSR raises concerns regarding the procedures for hazard identification within the organisation and effective risk controls5. You discuss this with the workers and the HSR.

b. The workers tell you that they are concerned that no-one speaks to them about hazards and risks in the workplace, and that they do not participate in hazard identification and risk assessments.

Include strategies to make the changes easy to understand and access ii. plan a meeting with the simulation’s store manager to explain the identified areas of concern, along with your proposed plan.

i. an outline of ongoing, regular monitoring (plan for at least three monitoring activities, e.g. scheduled audits)
j. all recordkeeping or reporting actions to assist in compliance and organisational WHS performance review
k. evidence of consultations with expert advisors (for example, from a WorkCover authority for advice on chemical separation or safety zones within warehouses) and include copies of any guidance material they have suggested.
