Answer sheet

A. Legislation and sources of information for resources and initiatives

1. Identify the environmental regulations which apply in your local government


area relevant to your workplace activities and provide details what is covered by
these regulations and bylaws.

Environmental regulation in Australia

Under Australia’s federal system of government, responsibility for environmental regulation is carried by the
Commonwealth Government and state/territory governments concurrently.

The Commonwealth’s responsibilities are principally established as a result of the foreign affairs power
under the Constitution and the Commonwealth Government implementing Australia’s responsibilities under
international agreements on environmental protection. The residual powers of the states under the
Constitution allow for the concurrent regulation of environmental matters that lay outside of the
Commonwealth’s responsibilities.

Whilst this system is often labelled a ‘dual regulatory approach’ there are, in practice, three tiers of
environmental regulation as state and territory governments frequently devolve many environmental
decisions and regulatory functions to local governments.

This complex system of environmental regulation is the principal concern of this chapter. It will first examine
environmental regulation at the Commonwealth level, and subsequently provide a brief and general overview
of the regulatory responsibilities of the states and territories as well as local governments.

Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997

1. to enable clean-up notices to be given to owners of premises as well as occupiers


2. to clarify the obligations of occupiers of premises from which point source emissions or non-point
source emissions occur in connection with the prevention or minimisation of such emissions
3. to enable court orders to require offenders to undertake restorative justice activities
4. to enable the EPA to require persons who transport waste to ensure that approved GPS tracking
devices are installed, used and maintained on motor vehicles used to transport waste
5. to remove the requirement to provide a notice of intent to suspend or revoke a licence and provide
that an appeal against a decision to suspend or revoke a licence does not operate to stay the
decision
6. to provide that material harm pollution incidents involving only odour are required to be notified to the
EPA in the same manner as other environmental incidents

The Protection of the Environment Legislation Amendment Act 2014 also

1. amends the Protection of the Environment Administration Act 1991 to provide for certain fees and
charges under legislation administered by the EPA to be paid into the Environment Protection
Authority Fund
2. makes consequential amendments to the Land and Environment Court Act 1979 and Protection of
the Environment Operations (General) Regulation 2009

2. Identify any resources and initiatives which are in place or available in your
state to help business to reduce their waste and use resources more efficiently.

If your business produces waste, then there is a good chance you are wasting money!

EPA has assembled a range of hints and tips aimed at assisting you to improve the resource efficiency in
your business.

These tips will help identify ways to improve business environmental performance while increasing
productivity and reducing costs of production. Resource efficiency is often a cheap and fast way to solve
problems as reducing waste will reduce the size and cost of any subsequent treatment process and/or
disposal costs.

Your business can look forward to:

 increased cost saving


 process efficiency
 improved occupational health and safety management
 enhanced shareholder relations
 improved reputation.

The hints and tips have been grouped for ease of reference and the broad categories are listed below. They
are intended to help you focus on specific areas in your business and guide your subsequent actions.

 Waste assessment
 Improve purchasing
 Improve storage
 Conserve energy
 Conserve water
 Preserve waterways
 Reduce waste
 Reduce risk
 Improve information
 Improve systems
 Reduce odour and air emissions

3. List 1 initiative that is relevant to your sector within the Tourism, Hospitality and
Events Industry and list all resources which are available through these
initiative(s). Outline how these would be used.
Delivery and assessment of Employability Skills2 Employability Skills are integral to workplace competency,
and, as such, must be considered in the design, customisation, delivery and assessment of vocational
education and training programs in an integrated and holistic way, as represented diagrammatically below.

Competency Standards
Learning Outcomes
Reflection

Workplace Activities
Assessment Strategies
Learning Strategies
Integration of Employability Skills

This diagram describes factors to consider when integrating employability skills. These factors are:
competency standards, learning outcomes, assessment strategies, learning strategies, workplace activities
and reflection. These factors are of equal importance.

Training providers must analyse the Employability Skills information contained in units of competency in
order to design valid and reliable training and assessment strategies. This analysis includes:  reviewing
unit(s) of competency to determine how each relevant Employability Skill is found and applied within the unit
 analysing the Employability Skills Summary for the qualification in which the unit(s) is/are packaged to help
clarify relevant industry/workplace contexts with regard to the application of Employability Skills at that
qualification level  designing learning and assessment activities that address Employability Skills
requirements.

The Employability Skills Summaries for the qualifications available in the Framework are included on pp 7–
11.

The Department of Education, Science and Training (DEST) developed a resource to assist trainers and
assessors ‘unpack’ the Employability Skills requirements contained in units of competency and integrate
them into training and assessment practice.

Employability Skills Summaries

B. Measuring current consumption and identifying existing procedures of work practices and
purchasing:

Conduct a practical assessment of your organisation’s resources and practices. You may use the
forms
attached below to collect your data or any software available to you (for example you may
create a
spreadsheet using Microsoft Excel).

For this purpose you need to complete the following activities:

1. Take the current meter reading for gas, electricity and water.

2. Create a table or list and enter:


all equipment and appliances used in one specific department (for example Kitchen, F&B
etc.), and measure the consumption of electricity as listed on the appliance labels.

3. Measure the flow rate for water of various taps using the formula “Flow rate
= Volume/Time (L/min)”

4. Inspect the type of lighting used and determine the KW/H (1000 Watt = 1 KWH) used in
that department based on typical or given workplace practices during operation.

5. Inspect the provisions for recycling.

6. Determine the intervals of waste collection and determine the size of the cubicle(s) used.

Canterbury Business College
CRICOS Code – 01899K RTO Code – 6554

7. This task is performed outside: Wearing gloves and using tongs, physically inspect the
contents of garbage bins from your department and inspect the approximate waste for
each category (Glass, paper, card board, green waste etc) and express these in percent
(approximately).

8. Determine the energy consumption ratings, use and settings of air conditioners and
heaters where applicable and document the potential KWH usage for these units.

9. Determine the resources required for any plants, landscaping or outside areas as relevant.

10. List the purchasing strategies which are currently in place including environmentally
sustainable approaches; carbon foot print considerations (for example use local
supplies from growers etc.)

11. Identify any workplace environmental and occupational hazards you may encounter during
your resource analysis.

12. Identify any breaches or potential breaches for environmental practices you
have encountered in the audited area during your project and outline the issues.

C. Setting efficiency targets

1. Analyse the results you have obtained for usage of resources and compare these
results against:

• Work and workflow processes: – which improvements could be made?


• Industry Schemes: – How do your results compare?
• Technology: – Are you using efficient technology?
• Resources: – Is there a benefit of switching e.g. from electricity to gas in some areas
or using other measures?
• Best Practice: – Are there recommendations from manufacturers or bodies that
recommend particular practices?

2. Set your targets in a table or spreadsheet based on your findings of the analysis.

3. Outline the provisions for communication this would require with key stakeholders
relevant to your position and workplace and how this will be achieved. Include a template
for an agenda and table for entering actions.

Canterbury Business College
CRICOS Code – 01899K RTO Code - 6554
Part B

For this part of the assessment project you are required to write and environmental
resource efficiency improvement plan which details the following:

1. The purpose of the plan

2. An overview what has been undertaken and why

3. The resource areas and targets you have established based on Section 3, Part A;
4. The measures and tools you will implement to achieve these targets;
5. Strategies that can be used to ensure staff compliance with environmental requirements and
to achieve new targets;
6. Strategies you will use for purchasing and selection of supply chains;
7. A calculation which will provide information as to the potential savings that can be achieved
over time, given the investment;
For example:

Use of e.g. 10 light bulbs rated at 0.060 KWH in Kitchen area could be replaced with 10
energy saving bulbs rated at 0.012 KWH which would represent an energy saving of (10 *
48 = 0.480KWH) 0.480 KW per hour x $ 0.28 = $ 0. 1344 per hour or at 10 hours per day: $
0.1344 x 10 = $1.35/ Day.
For a 7 day operation this then equates to a potential saving of $ 492.75 minus the
proportion of the cost of the energy saving bulb @ $ 7.50 /5000 hours ($1.50 per 1000
hours use)versus an ordinary bulb @ $ 0.75 /1000 hours lifespan.

10 Showerheads in guest rooms rated A could be replaced by ones rated AAA with a
potential saving of (10 * 55 L = 550 L ) 550 Litres per day etc. (0.55 x 1.80 = $ 0.99/day x
365 = $ 361.35/year) minus the initial cost for purchasing the more efficient showerheads
(for the first year only)

8. The provisions for communication to periodically discuss and network with colleagues
to make adjustments and identify progress;
9. A spreadsheet or set of tools which can be used to record and monitor periodic results from
readings and invoices/ statements for utilities;
10. Examples how you will evaluate strategies and make adjustments to the improvement plan.
