Solving Employment Relationship Problems Task
This is where you get to practise your problem solving skills. You will analyse and suggest resolutions for a grievance and a dispute at Naturally Baking Ltd. The issues are presented in the video scenarios. You may need to revise the information from this section.
You will work within your forum teams to research the resources and answer the task questions. You need to organise your forum team. You can nominate yourself for positions or suggest other team members. Your forum team needs to:
- Split into two groups: the ‘personal grievance’ group and the ‘dispute’ group
- Choose a facilitator to direct discussion within the two groups
- Choose a reporter to collate and write up the findings of both groups.
Each group needs to:
- Decide how the members will work together to research the task questions and deliver feedback
