Description | This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to develop, administer and communicate staff rosters. | ||
Employability Skills | The required outcomes described in this unit of competency contain applicable facets of employability skills. The Employability Skills Summary of the qualification in which this unit is packaged will assist in identifying employability skills requirements. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit applies to individuals responsible for the development of staff rosters in a tourism or hospitality context, in situations involving potentially large numbers of staff working across a range of different service periods, i.e. in more than a small office environment. Constraints around award provisions, other industrial agreements and wage budgets are a feature of rostering at this level.Depending on the sector or specific organisation, this role may be carried out by dedicated specialist staff or by operational supervisors and managers. | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. |

Evidence Required
List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, the range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package. | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | Evidence of the following is essential: knowledge and understanding of the factors and issues affecting staff rostering familiarity with typical formats for rosters and key information to be included ability to prepare staff rosters that meet wage budgets and provide a level of staffing sufficient to ensure the delivery of high quality customer service project or work activities that allow the candidate to prepare rosters for a workplace and to evaluate their cost efficiency and operational effectiveness against nominated standards project or work activities conducted over an operationally realistic period of time so that the planning, evaluation and monitoring aspects of rostering staff can be assessed preparation of multiple rosters for multiple periods to meet the staffing requirements of more than one operational situation. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | Assessment must ensure: demonstration of skills in a fully operational situation (project or permanent working environment), including a team of people for whom rosters can be developed use of industry-current rostering technology and systems. |
Methods of assessment | A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit: evaluation of the staffing costs and service levels in a workplace or at an event for which the candidate has prepared rosters case studies to develop rosters for typical industry working periods and different operational situations oral or written questions to assess knowledge of specific factors affecting the design of rosters review of portfolios of evidence and third-party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate. Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended. |
Assessing employability skills | Employability skills are integral to effective performance in the workplace and are broadly consistent across industry sectors. How these skills are applied varies between occupations and qualifications due to the different work functions and contexts. Employability skills embedded in this unit should be assessed holistically with other relevant units that make up the skill set or qualification and in the context of the job role. |

Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
This section describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit. |
The following skills must be assessed as part of this unit: organisational skills to plan rosters to meet operational needs literacy skills to develop potentially complex roster documentation communication skills to consult with colleagues, ask questions and confirm requirements, and listen, understand and interpret verbal and non-verbal messages numeracy skills to undertake planning activities involving dates, times and staff ratios. |
The following knowledge must be assessed as part of this unit: role of rosters and their importance in controlling staff costs factors to be considered when developing rosters, including legal or industrial provisions in the relevant work context formats for the presentation of staff rosters and details to be included overview of software programs and other technology available for roster design in-depth knowledge of operational area for which roster is being developed. |
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording in the performance criteria is detailed below. | |
Rosters may be for: | individual department whole organisation specific project. |
Award provisions and organisation agreements may affect rostering in relation to a range of issues, including: | number of hours worked in a given shift overall number of hours allocated to different staff members breaks between shifts nature of duties allocated use of permanent or casual staff. |
Operational efficiency and customer service levels may be affected by: | numbers of staff type of staff balance of skills required demands of different service styles or periods. |
Cultural considerations may relate to: | types of work to be undertaken by individuals dates of cultural or religious festivals family considerations mixing of people from different cultures. |
Broader organisational policies may relate to: | compassionate leave maternity or paternity leave family-friendly workplace initiatives. |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
