Brief Report
King Edward VII College currently employs 24 staff members including the CEO, a Marketing Manager
and Marketing Assistant, Human Resources Manager, Finance Manager, Administration Manager, Office
Assistant, Receptionist, Academic Manager, Student Services Officer, and approximately 14 trainers.
Because of the great achievement and success, two new campuses are going to be established, one in
Sydney and one in Brisbane. Therefore, fresh and new human resources are needed to fill that space. No
staff have been employed as yet, but it is anticipated that each campus will need a receptionist, student
services officer, and 4 trainers minimum. However, lack of skilled trainers and assessors is a key issue.
Key skills required are high level knowledge and skills in adult learning and the design and development
of assessment tools.
The current condition being faced by King Edward VII College is the emergence of new technologies
related to human resources in an organization. A company must be innovative and always be reactive to
changes, especially when it is an opportunity to grow. Nowadays, almost all organizations and companies
use fingerprint or ID card tapping for attendance, and the data is automatically stored in the system.
Australian companies also have used less paper and migrate on electronically stored data. Implementation
of Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS) is getting more common and massive because in the
long run it will help the company to be sustainable and operate more effectively. Human Resource
Information Systems or HRIS offer a lot of benefits, some of them are,
● Record-keeping. An HRIS is a record-keeping system that keeps track of changes to anything
related to employees. The HRIS can be seen as the one source of truth when it comes to personnel
data.
● Compliance. Some data is collected and stored for compliance reasons. This includes material for
identification for employees in case of theft, fraud, or other misbehaviors, first contact
information in case of accidents, citizens identification information for the tax office, and
expiration dates for mandatory certification. All this information can be stored in the HRIS.
● Efficiency. Having all this information in one place not only benefits accuracy but also saves
time.
● HR strategy. The HRIS enables the tracking of data required to advance the HR and business
strategy. Depending on the priorities of the organization, different data will be essential to track.
This is where the HRIS comes in.
● Self-Service HR. A final benefit is the ability to offer self-service HR to employees and
managers. This enables employees to manage their own affairs. When done right, the HRIS can
offer a good employee experience.
King Edward VII College could implement the payroll systems, performance management, and also time
and attendance. Even though initially a large amount of cost is required, in the end it will create benefit
and a more effective working procedure.
Every year, there are both major and minor changes to Australia’s employment regulatory landscape.
Some changes only affect certain businesses and industries, and there are others that affect every
workplace regardless of the industry. The minimum wage is also reviewed and updated every year.
Moreover, there are also several regulations that force the organization to shift and change the reporting
scheme. These regulation changes both could benefit and become disadvantages for the company. It will
impact the workforce’s daily job, appraisal system, and also the need for a new workforce.

It is anticipated that each campus will have 50 students. So, two training and assessment staff and one
administration and support staff is needed to fill the space. The method of recruiting trainees and/or
graduates and recruitment consultants could be implemented. Recruiting trainees or graduates have
several downsides, but it is one of the best methods because someone who has a sense of belonging
towards the university is needed to make the university grow faster. The potential candidates should be
marked by the trainer. Moreover, using a recruitment consultant is costly, but the end result would be
satisfying.
Sustainability is needed not just in the business aspect, the workforce needs to be sustainable, the process,
the external parts of the company also have to be sustainable. Sustainability is needed in almost all
business phases and stages. The value of continuous innovation and workforce diversity that has been
implemented by the organization is a good start. The values to deliver the best education for giving back
to the community is also great to be implemented, because education is really important and the
organization needs to strive for the best and offer the best education system. Continuous innovation is not
enough, continuous learning and improvement is also important. Learning and improvement is important
for the workforce, the aspects of who is physically contacting the customers, student.
Strategies have to be aligned with the company's main objectives. Therefore, the strategic plan for the
company are,
● Conducting recruitment and retention of high quality staff. Recruitment needs to be stricter to
eliminate candidates that are not suitable for the company. Moreover, the best human resource
which contributes for growth in the company needs to be retained. The objective is of course to
find the best person to do the job, and also to keep the best person’s working motivation and
welfare.
● Working on and developing people. Finding someone with the highest intellectual level, and the
highest skill is hard. Rather than finding that someone, it is better to train and develop the ones
with great attitude and willingness to learn. Training and development will boost workforce’s
skill and knowledge, or even managerial skills. In the end, the return will be earned by the
company because of the increasing performance.
● Creating a healthy, safe, and supportive workplace culture. Healthy and safe workplace should
follow the Australian WHS law. Safe, healthy, and supportive workplace will lift up the working
environment and employee’s mood. By having a better working environment and mood, the
workplace will become more harmonic and effortlessly performance will be affected.
