Participate in the Work Place

Hi Shae,

I would like to help you.
could you please become familiar with the sites posting guidelines http://www.aussiechildcarenetwork.com/certificate3-assignments/forum-rules-for-assignment-questions-t1146.html

Please post the module number and what you understand so far about the question.
thanks

What I understand so far of the question is that the relevance of the OHS Act is that it provides guidelines on what is acceptable and what is not in the workplace. For example if there is a puddle of water on the floor that is a hazard and it is my duty and role to clean it up before anyone could slip and hurt themselves.

The Childcare Act provides guidelines for the rights of Staff and Families. It also provides childcare centres with guidelines on how the centre is to be run, policies and procedures for all staff to follow and abide by when in the work environment.

I feel that it impacts on my work role by giving me the information I need to perform my job properly. If there is something I am unsure of I can look at the Act and find the answer, e.g policies on confidentiality. Knowing what guidelines I have to follow to make sure I do my job to the best of my ability.

Thank you

Shae
