practises being followed in a organisation then it will have a positive impact on employees

According to view points of (Syed, Ali and Hennekam, 2018), equality & diversity
practises have a critical impact on employee performance. Equality & diversity practises has a
major impact on translation of employee performance in a positive manner. There are various
policies made with regards to equality and diversity in areas such as training of employees. In
various decision such as promotion as a motivational tool if there are no discrimination done
based on caste, race creed or colour then it results in increasing overall satisfaction level of
employees. There are no probability of internal conflicts between employees. In case of jaguar,
this organisation is responding to demographics & working patters. Employers are being more
flexible so that they are able to retain their competent employees according to their specific
requirements.
Importance of equality & diversity practises & policies in enhancing employees performance

P2 Project management plan with details of various aspects such as scope, time, quality, risk,
communication and resources
Project management plan is a document or can be related as a blue print that consist of
detailed description of different activities that has to be performed by a researcher in achieving
their overall objectives (Syed and Ozbilgin, 2019). There are various policies & plans that have
to be considered by management of a company. Various elements such as size, risk, cost, time,
communication & equality. All such element are discussed below:
Cost: Cost is the total monetary amount requited by research to perform various
objectives for accomplishment of research. In present case for completion of the research Jaguar
will require a amount of $ 70,000.
Scope: It is being analysed that this research as a wide scope as it will helps organisation
on performing various functions of business in a more better manner (Zanoni, and Janssens,
2018). In case of jaguar, there will be better understanding of how equality and diversity
practises are affecting overall objectives of organisation.
Time: This is a very essential aspect of every research as it is to be considered by
researcher in completion of all functions in given time frame. In case of Jaguar researcher has
been allotted a time period of six months for completion of research and achievement of various
objectives (Nachmias, Aravopoulou and Caven, , 2019).
Quality: it is not enough to complete a research but maintenance of overall quality is also
very important. Overall quality oaf a research can be maintained of data is collected from
authentic sources only. It leads to achievement of reliable objectives that is further applied by
management of Jaguar in strategy formulation.
Risk: One of major risk associated with research is maintaining confidentiality of
collected information by a researcher (Mahlangu, 2019). It is responsibility of researcher that
they have to provide assurance to respondent that all collected information will be used only for
the purpose of achievement of research objectives and will not be leaked or used for any other
purpose.
Resources: There are various types of resources that are critical for achievement of
research objectives and without without which a research cannot be successfully completed. In
case of Jaguar, researcher will also require resources such as human resources, financial

resources, technological resource in form of internet etc. so that there is effectiveness in
achievement of overall laid objectives (Kelan and Wratil, 2018).
P3 Work break down structure & Gantt chart to understand stages of project completion
Work break down structure: It is a process being implemented by various project
volunteers fir attainment of specific business goals (Iganski and Mason, 2018). Fundamental
concept of this structure is broken down in smaller tasks and then further subdivide in other tasks
for achieving team work. It is related with better understanding and a detail description of a
project (Green, 2019). His structure is used in case of larger projects further divided in smaller
parts. This framework is used in execution of project and all related aspect in a more systematic
manner.
