Scenarios
Scenario 1
You are the Operations General Manager at Max Lionel Realty (MLR). You are
responsible for the day-to-day running of the company. You oversee the coordination
of activities that occur within the Residential, Commercial, and Investments branches
of the company. You are responsible for overseeing projects which affect operations of
the organisation as a whole. You work with the HR manager to coordinate systems
and projects to achieve cooperation and coordination across the company.

implemented WHS management system you must:

Scenario 1 (continued)
One of the agents heard calls for help, managed to open the exit and help the

client.
Not realising what had happened, or the seriousness of the accident, the agent

criticised the clients high heels, implying that such a thing would never happen
to a man. Any sensible woman would take the lift.
The client was humiliated.
The client was taken to the Royal Womens Hospital by ambulance.
She is threatening to sue MLR for injuries, loss of income and mental trauma.
Another agent noticed a strange odour and an oily substance on the stairwell.
This agent reported the incident verbally to the Commercial Realty Manager.
This incident has only just become known to the HR manager, who has been

contacted by both the clients lawyer and the Office of the Human Rights
Ombudsman.
Several incidents in which managers have failed to undertake WHS management

system responsibilities have occurred recently. For example, record-keeping has

been incomplete.
Consultation with agents, WHS committee meetings not occurred.
The organisations original target was to reduce the number of WHS incidents by

25%; however, after initial success, enthusiasm for the system has worn off and
incident rates are only just lower than they were when the system was initiated.

Scenario 2
You are the Operations General Manager at Max Lionel Realty. You have recently
investigated a serious WHS incident.
You have determined that the incident may represent a systemic breakdown in
compliance with the organisations WHS management system. This system has
only recently been implemented and clearly the requisite practices have not been
embedded.
Your legal and ethical responsibility is clear. You have a legal and ethical
responsibility as a manager to minimise workplace hazards. Moreover, in
accordance with organisational change management processes, you need to
ensure organisational support by regularly reviewing compliance and acting
immediately to intervene to ensure organisational objectives and minimise risk.
You need to ensure managers are aware of and comply with the following
responsibilities under the WHS management system and WHS legislation:
consult with agents on WHS issues to continually identify any potential risks
regularly conduct WHS committee meetings to address risk across the

organisation
regularly assess potential workplace hazards
act proactively to reduce risk
update the risk register.

You have decided to prepare a presentation to managers to ensure compliance.

Your objective is to ensure a smooth implementation of the WHS management
system. Accordingly, you dont want to single out or embarrass any one manager.
Rather, you want to ensure enthusiastic support by underscoring the importance
of implementation of the WHS management system with respect to Max Lionels
mission and organisational goals.
You will need to ensure you demonstrate and support ethical attitudes and
practices.
