Task 1: You have started working in preparing for the event and the first 2 days went well. Days 3 you were awaiting a large delivery of food and supplies.

The staff on shift with you are, John; Zara, Rahesh and Angelica.

These 4 staff members are close friends and get on very well as a group. However, at times this affects their focus on the tasks at hand.

As the delivery arrives, you ask Zara and Rahesh to assist you in receiving and inspecting the required items.

The delivery is massive for the event as is a 3 day Wedding Celebration for over 200 guests.

You allocate one staff member to each specific delivery for the particular days of the event.

The receiving and confirmation of stock takes over 3 hours.

You note the following when receiving of stock:

Rahesh has stopped to have a cigarette outside of the receiving dock.

Whilst this is not an issue, he fails to wash his hands prior to returning to his duty.

He and Zara are laughing together about something that happened on the weekend when Zara trip and drops a box of eggs (containing 216 eggs) 6 trays of 36. These eggs were a key ingredient in one of the wedding cakes.

On entering the refrigerator to put stock away you note the following:

Raw beef is sitting on the top shelf
2 x 10kg bags of flour sitting on the floor – one is now wet from the condensation
There is a container with a prepared dish that is still hot sitting on the side shelf and is not labelled

Rahesh then calls you back to the receiving dock to advise you that there is an issue.

On returning to the dock he has a bag of raw chicken wings in his hand – and then puts his hand in the hole in the bag to show you the bag is compromised.

He then proceeds to try and check the rest of the bags before you stop him.
