ACTIVITY 1: WHAT ‘PHASE’ ARE YOU IN?

In the ‘Getting on Track’ module, you reviewed the four phases of work. In the table

preparing to work, write one key action in each phase that you think will make you

ACTIVITY 3: WHO CAN HELP YOU?

If you are currently working, think about who you can ask for help in each of the
categories below and write their name(s) and questions you want to ask them.
If you are not preparing for a job or are not working, you can fill in the template by
writing down any questions you might have about starting a future job.
If you don’t know who can help you at work, then you need to find out. If you don’t have
an HR representative, you should ask your manager or a colleague who is responsible
for providing things like health and safety training.
Remember, if you ask family and friends for advice, you should think about the right
questions to ask them. Also seek out those who are good role models and who can
support you to be successful at work.
