ASSESSMENT 1 – SHORT ANSWER
1. What is the role of a roster?
A roster is a planned list of employees and the times they are required to work, on any given
day, week, fortnight or month in a workplace.
A roster is essentially a plan for how you will best use your human resources over a particular
time period.
1. To communicate working hours or shifts effectively to staff. Staff can also see
their rostered days off, when they need to attend training, seminars or other
forms of professional development.
2. To fairly distribute work hours to staff and make the best use of their skills.
3. To ensure you make the best use of staff to meet product and service demands.
4. To better control labour costs.
2. What is an industry award?
Awards are legal documents that set out pay and entitlements for specific industries or
occupations. There are 122 modern awards that cover most jobs and employees in Australia.

as other workplace related conditions.
