Policies and Procedures

Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Policy

PurposeThe purpose of this policy is to outline CoffeeVille’s approach to employment in regards to giving fair opportunity to all people to apply and be selected for job roles at CoffeeVille. CoffeeVille is committed to providing a workplace free from all forms of discrimination.
Relevant legislationWorkplace Gender Equality Act 2012 (Cwlth)Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cwlth)Equal Opportunity Act 2010 (Vic)

Guiding principles

CoffeeVille is guided by the principle of equal opportunity in all of its activities. CoffeeVille aims to create a positive, equitable and productive working environment. This includes providing staff with an environment that is safe, flexible, fair, culturally appropriate, friendly and professional. Equity principles are a core element of the planning, recruitment, interview, selection and appointment of new employees of CoffeeVille.

It is critical to the achievement of our business goals that we have a culture which respects, values and actively pursues the benefits of diversity.

CoffeeVille is committed to an equitable and inclusive work environment that is free from discrimination and harassment. The organisation has implemented policies and procedures to promote a discrimination- and harassment-free work environment for all staff to ensure that they are able to work effectively within the organisation and with its clients and stakeholders.

CoffeeVille will assist staff in meeting these objectives with clear policy, education, training and practice.

Definitions and application

CoffeeVille is responsible for ensuring that equal employment opportunities exist for all current and future employees. Staff will be selected or promoted according to merit irrespective of personal attributes.

In relation to staff, diversity can refer to function, experience, discipline, education, socio-economic background, marital status, personality profile, gender, age, language, ethnicity, culture, sexual orientation, religion, family responsibility, etc.

Managing diversity is about creating an environment in which everyone can achieve his or her full potential.

Employees are happier and more productive if they are appreciated and included, not assimilated or tolerated.

Strategic advantages can result from incorporating a wide variety of approaches and perspectives in the workplace. Improved innovation and creativity are documented benefits of diversity. Teams that are diverse and inclusive find more innovative, feasible and effective ways to overcome challenges. They bring a variety of perspectives to a situation and thus offer a wider range of solutions. Diversity also allows for more flexibility in rostering.

CoffeeVille is committed to identifying and eliminating the barriers that may be encountered by staff, including the elimination of discriminatory selection criteria and providing equal access to training and development, support and mentoring. This may include the provision of reasonable adjustments. For more information on reasonable adjustments, see the anti-discrimination, anti-harassment and anti-bullying policy.

Equal employment opportunity and merit-based management and recruitment requires you to avoid discrimination. For more information on anti-discrimination, see the anti-discrimination, anti-harassment and anti-bullying policy.

2020 – Rufus Belcastran (Owner CoffeeVille)

Anti-Discrimination, Anti-Harassment and Anti-Bullying Policy

PurposeThe purpose of this policy is to provide a workplace free from discrimination, sexual harassment and bullying. Behaviour that constitutes discrimination, sexual harassment or bullying will not be tolerated and will lead to action being taken, which may include dismissal.
Relevant legislationRacial Discrimination Act 1975 (Cwlth)Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cwlth)Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cwlth)Age Discrimination Act 2004 (Cwlth)Racial and Religious Tolerance Act 2001 (Vic).

For the purposes of this policy, the following definitions apply:

  • Direct discrimination occurs when someone is treated unfavourably because of a personal characteristic.
  • Indirect Discrimination occurs when a rule seems neutral, but has a discriminatory impact on certain people. For example a minimum height requirement of 175 cm for a particular job might be applied equally to men and women, but would indirectly discriminate on the basis of sex, as women tend to be shorter than men.
  • Sexual harassment includes unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature in circumstances in which it could reasonably be expected to make a person feel offended, humiliated or intimidated.
  • Workplace bullying may include behaviour that is directed toward an employee, or group of employees, that creates a risk to health and safety, e.g. physical and/or verbal abuse, excluding or isolating individuals; or giving difficult or unpleasant tasks to particular staff members.

Discrimination based on a personal characteristic mentioned under state and federal equal opportunity legislation is strictly forbidden. Under state legislation, characteristics that must not result in discrimination include:

agebreastfeedingcarer statusdisabilityemployment activitygender identityindustrial activitylawful sexual activitymarital statusparental statusphysical featurespolitical activity/beliefpregnancyracereligious activity/beliefsexsexual orientationpersonal association with someone having any of these characteristics.

Any employee found to have contravened this policy will be subject to disciplinary action, which may include dismissal as outlined in the complaint procedure below.

Employees must report any behaviour that constitutes sexual harassment, bullying or discrimination to their manager, or, where the manager is implicated in the inappropriate behaviour, to an owner: Rufus or Emma Belcastran.

Employees will not be victimised or treated unfairly for raising an issue or making a complaint.

Reasonable adjustments

Reasonable adjustments are changes that allow people with a disability to work safely and productively.

CoffeeVille will make reasonable adjustments for a person with a disability who:

  • applies for a job, is offered employment, or is an employee; and
  • requires the adjustments in order to participate in the recruitment process or perform the genuine and reasonable requirements of the job.

Examples of reasonable adjustments can include:

  • reviewing and, if necessary, adjusting the performance requirements of the job
  • arranging flexibility in work hours (see ‘flexible work arrangements’)
  • providing telephone typewriter (TTY) phone access for employees with hearing or speech impairments
  • increasing font sizes on organisational documents or purchasing screen reading software for employees with a vision impairment
  • approving more regular breaks for people with chronic pain or fatigue.

When thinking about reasonable adjustments CoffeeVille will weigh up the need for change with the expense or effort involved in making it. If making the adjustment means a very high cost or great disruption to the workplace, it is not likely to be reasonable.

In some cases CoffeeVille can discriminate on the basis of disability, if:

  • the adjustments needed are not reasonable; or
  • the person with the disability could not perform the genuine and reasonable requirements of the job even if the adjustments were made.

Procedure: To make a complaint

If you believe you are being, or have been, discriminated against, sexually harassed or bullied, you should follow this procedure.

  1. Tell the offender the behaviour is offensive, unwelcome, and against business policy and should stop (only if you feel comfortable enough to approach them directly, otherwise speak to your manager). Keep a written record of the incident(s).
  2. If the unwelcome behaviour continues, contact your supervisor or manager for support.
  3. If this is inappropriate, you feel uncomfortable, or the behaviour persists, contact one of the owners. Employees may also lodge a complaint with the Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission, the Australian Human Rights Commission, or take action under the Fair Work Act 2009.

Employees should feel confident that any complaint they make is to be treated as confidential as far as possible.

Recruitment Policy

PurposeThe purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines for the recruitment and selection of employees. CoffeeVille aims to attract and employ the most suitable person for the position who will support the organisation’s values, culture and goals in order to achieve its strategic directions. Recruitment and selection of employees will comply with all legal requirements, and with relevant equal opportunity, affirmative action and human resource management principles, policies and guidelines adopted by the organisation.
Relevant legislationIncome Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cwlth)Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992 (Cwlth)Fair Work Act 2009 (Cwlth)Racial and Religious Tolerance Act 2001 (Vic)Equal Opportunity Act 2010 (Vic)Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 (Vic).
Updated/

09/2020 – Emma Belcastran

Principles and workforce strategy

The following principles guide decision-making in relation to recruitment and selection of employees.

  • The aim of the recruitment and selection process is to appoint the most suitable person to the position.
  • Recruitment of new employees will only be undertaken after capabilities of existing employees have been taken into account and training options sufficiently explored.
  • Recruitment and selection will be informed by the organisation’s strategic directions and priorities and will take place following an evaluation of the need for the role given the staffing requirements to achieve these directions and priorities.
  • Recruitment and selection will be guided by requirements of relevant legislation and other relevant human resource management policies in use by the organisation such as equal opportunity and anti-discrimination policies.
  • Recruitment and selection processes will be conducted on the basis of fair, equitable and respectful treatment of all applicants.
  • Positions will be advertised using advertising channels of minimal cost: word-of-mouth, social media, referrals, and posting a notice in the café window.
  • All appointments will be made on the basis of careful and consistent application of the principle of merit and adherence to the key selection criteria and requirements of the position as outlined in the position description.
  • All recruitment and selection processes will be conducted so as to ensure the confidentiality of the applicants and to preserve the integrity of the process.

CoffeeVille’s strategy around recruitment involves:

  • striving for diversity: incorporating a wide variety of approaches and perspectives in the workplace
  • expanding hours of operation: hire another manager and train baristas to take on limited supervisory functions to improve CoffeeVille’s ability to provide quality service at all times
  • hire the right person for the job: ensure that job descriptions effectively cover the requirements of the role without incorporating unnecessary exclusions (e.g. only specify qualifications when they are necessary for the role).

To recruit employees

1. New jobs and job vacancies

The job description must always be reviewed and/or developed for a new hire.

Approval for hiring a new employee must be obtained from one of the owners: Rufus or Emma Belcastran.

2. Job description

A job description is a key document in the recruitment process, and must be finalised prior to taking any other steps. It must include:

the job title (which must be gender neutral) the location of the job wage or salary scale for the positionwho the job role reports tothe work type (casual, part-time, full-time ) and hoursmain purpose of the job main duties and responsibilities any special working conditions (e.g. evening or weekend work).

3. Selection criteria

The selection criteria – the knowledge (including necessary qualifications), skills and abilities, experience, aptitudes required to do the job – must be determined prior to advertising and interviewing. The selection criteria should be specific, related to the job, and not unnecessarily restrictive, for example, only qualifications strictly needed to do the job should be specified.

Great care must be taken if physical requirements are specified. Anti-discrimination legislation requires employers to make reasonable adjustments to jobs to make them suitable for people with a disability. It is important that any physical requirement is stated in terms of the job that needs to be done. For example a job may require that the appointee ‘must be able to travel to a number of different locations’. In this instance, it will be necessary to consider if an ability to drive is required, or whether or not reasonable adjustments can be made for non-drivers.

4. Advertising the position

CoffeeVille’s job advertisement template should be used to complete the job advertisement.

The first item of the template requires the writer to identify the advertising channel that will be used to advertise the position. The advertising channel should be a low-cost option.

The advertisement must also include the following details:

job titlelocationsalaryapplication closing datea role descriptionrequired and preferred qualifications, experience, skills and personal traitsdetails on how to apply.

The advertisement should also include a statement about privacy in relation to job applications, such as ‘CoffeeVille will treat your application confidentially, in accordance with our privacy statement which will be made available upon request’.

The job advertisement must support CoffeeVille’s diversity strategy by mentioning in the body of the advertisement that CoffeeVille promotes a culture which respects, values and actively pursues the benefits of diversity at CoffeeVille. The advertisement should also be written in plain English.

5. Processing applications

Staff must be aware that when dealing with enquiries about vacancies that it is unlawful to state or imply that applications from a particular gender, racial group, age group, sexual orientation or religion/belief would be preferred, (unless a genuine occupational qualification or requirement applies) and to do so may lead to a complaint of unlawful discrimination.

Care must also be taken that all applicants are treated in the same way, for example with regard to informal meetings to discuss the vacancy, and provision of information. However, it is acceptable to respond to requests from individual candidates who demonstrate initiative in their preparation.

The confidentiality of applications must be respected by all of those involved in the selection process.

5. Short-listing

After the closing date has passed, applications from candidates may be short-listed. This decision should be based on evidence that the applicant has met the requirements of the selection criteria.

The original applications from all applicants as well as interview notes, must be retained for a minimum of six months from the date that an appointment decision is notified, in case of complaint to an employment tribunal. All photocopies of application forms must be shredded after six months.

6. Arrangements for interviews

Letters, emails or phone calls to short-listed candidates should include:

  • date, time and place of their interview
  • travel directions to the interview venue
  • a request that they contact the author of the letter/message if they have any special requirements in relation to the interview (related to access to the venue or any other special need related to a disability)
  • if appropriate, details of any test or presentation they will be required to do, or anything that they should bring with them (e.g., examples of work or proof of qualifications that are essential to the post).

7. Interviewing

Interviews should be scheduled as soon after the closing date as reasonably possible.

The structure of interviews should be decided in advance by determining what areas of questioning are required to cover all of the selection criteria. The questions should be agreed on by all panel members prior to the interview to avoid overlap or repetition.

The same areas of questioning should be covered with all candidates. Interview questions should be phrased so that they do not favour any one candidate and should be designed to seek evidence of how the interviewee meets the selection criteria. Supplementary questions should be used to probe for further information or clarification where answers are incomplete or ambiguous. Care must be taken to avoid questions that could be construed as discriminatory (e.g., questions about personal circumstances that are unrelated to the job).

Interviewer panels act for the organisation in making selection decisions and are accountable for them. Interview notes must be taken to help make an informed decision based on the content of the interviews. Such notes must relate to how candidates demonstrate their knowledge, skills, experience and abilities in relation to the selection criteria. Applicants can request disclosure of such notes in the event of a complaint. Any inappropriate or personally derogatory comments contained within the notes could be considered discriminatory and are unacceptable.

Disabled applicants

Where the candidate being interviewed has a disability for which adjustments may need to be considered, the candidate’s requirements should be discussed with him/her once the planned questioning is complete. The outcome of these discussions must not influence the consideration of the candidate’s application (unless their disability precludes them from performing essential tasks, even with the addition of reasonable adjustments). If the disabled candidate best meets the selection criteria, consideration must be made regarding what would be ‘reasonable adjustments’ to accommodate the needs of the person in question. If it is considered that the adaptations needed would not be deemed to be ‘reasonable’ under anti-discrimination legislation, the manager will draft a letter to the applicant explaining why the adaptations cannot be made. Reasons for not making adjustments to the working environment must be both material and substantial, and must be documented.

8. Making a decision after interview

The information obtained in the application, the interview, and in any selection tests will allow candidates to be assessed against the selection criteria and allow the panel to make a selection decision. Owners, Rufus and Emma Belcastran, must ensure that a written note of the reasons for selecting the successful candidate and rejecting others is made and placed on the recruitment file, together with the original applications and notes of all panel members, for a minimum of six months after the appointment decision has been notified to the candidates.

The selected applicant will be made a provisional offer subject to satisfactory references and disclosures (if appropriate) being received.

9. Feedback

It is good practice to offer applicants feedback after interviews and it is our policy to respond if requested. Feedback should be specific and honest. Panel members giving feedback must ensure that any feedback they give relates to the selection criteria for the position and that the words that they use could not be taken to infer unlawful discrimination.

10. Pre-employment checks

Reference checks must be undertaken before a formal offer of employment can be made. It must be ensured that any offer of employment given, is a ‘provisional’ one, subject to receipt of documentation as shown below.

References

References should only be used after interview to confirm, but not influence, a decision.

Appropriate referees are those who have direct experience of a candidate’s work, education or training, preferably in a supervisory capacity and a reference must be obtained from the current or previous employer.

References are confidential and must be sought ‘in confidence’. Panel members must return all copies of any references with the application forms and their interview notes to the manager on completion of the recruitment process. References must only be kept in the personal file.

14. Appointment

Offering the job

Applicants are offered a position once they have been approved by either owner and the offer is communicated through a letter of offer.

The offer should clearly indicate:

  • new employee’s name
  • nature of the job e.g. fulltime, part time, casual
  • remuneration
  • annual leave, sick leave, maternity/paternity leave
  • terms and conditions of resignation/termination, including notice period  
  • instructions for returning relevant documentation (employment contract).

To comply with the Fair Work Act 2009, the Fair Work Information Statement is enclosed with the letter of offer. The Fair Work Information sheet can be directly downloaded from www.fairwork.gov.au/fwis or found through the Fair Work Ombudsman website at www.fairwork.gov.au.

In addition to the Fair Work Information Statement, the contract of employment and CoffeeVille’s Privacy Statement (provided in Appendix 1) should also be enclosed with the letter of offer.

Informing staff of the new appointment

Once the selected applicant has confirmed that they will take the position, it is necessary to notify CoffeeVille staff of the new hire.

When advising staff of the new hire, email the staff with the following information:

  • the name of the new hire
  • the job role that they will fill
  • the new hire’s starting date
  • instructions for staff to welcome the new hire

Notifying unsuccessful candidates

All unsuccessful interviewees are sent a letter to inform them that they were not successful in securing the job role. Ensure to:

  • thank the applicant for their application
  • express regret that CoffeeVille is unable to hire them at this time
  • inform them that their application and personal details will be destroyed securely according to the privacy statement (Appendix 1)
  • wish them well in future job searches.

15. Induction and probation

All new staff will undergo a probationary period during which they will be introduced to the main duties and responsibilities of their post. Under the legislation, the staff member must still be provided with at least minimum entitlements and must be given at least 1 week of notice if their employment is to be terminated (provided there has been no serious misconduct).

For each new employee, an induction plan must be prepared before their start date. Use the induction checklist (Appendix 2) to ensure that all necessary tasks are included in the induction plan.

16. Record-keeping

All records relating to the recruitment and selection procedure will be retained only for as long as is necessary (generally six months), and will be securely destroyed thereafter in accordance with CoffeeVille’s privacy statement (Appendix 1).

Remuneration and Performance Appraisal Policy

Policy and Purpose

This policy establishes the framework and guidelines to be used by the organisation in determining remuneration arrangements for its employees and to assist staff in understanding the organisation’s position on staff remuneration.

The purpose of the policy is to:

  • attract and retain employees of the required quality
  • ensure the staff are appropriately compensated for the services they provide to the organisation
  • ensure that remuneration levels are competitive with the external market
  • encourage and motivate staff to achieve the organisation’s strategic business objectives
  • promote and reinforce the organisation’s key values and appropriate employee behaviours
  • ensure a level of equity, consistency and transparency in employee remuneration.

Definitions

Remuneration will comprise base salary and an annual bonus based on performance. The total of these components make up the employee’s remuneration package. 

Underlying Common Rule Award

Staff covered by the relevant underlying award, Restaurant Industry Award 2010, will be paid no less than the rate of pay set out in that award for the relevant position.

Policy Coverage

The staff remuneration policy covers all employees at all levels of the organisation.

Determining Base Salary Levels

Base salary levels will be determined by job evaluation. Job evaluation is the evaluation of the position from the information in the relevant position description, in terms of the level of required skills, competencies and knowledge, and criteria such as the level and impact of decision-making and authority to act. 

Job evaluation will be carried out by the Café owners, Rufus and Emma Belcastran.

The underlying principles of job evaluation include:

  • salary levels will be paid no less than the rate of pay set out in the relevant underlying award, Restaurant Industry Award 2010
  • salary levels are to be benchmarked on an annual basis (as part of the annual budgeting process) against the external market using salary surveys to establish competitiveness with similar positions in the external market
  • if the job changes as determined by a job evaluation, the base level remuneration should be altered to reflect the change in the employee’s role and responsibilities
  • decisions on broad salary increases (those that apply to all employees), such as CPI or cost of living based increases will be made on an annual basis by the owners
  • staff will have the opportunity to raise remuneration issues at six monthly performance review meetings with their manager.

Staff Performance Plans

Staff will be provided with individual performance plans/workplans for the subsequent financial year. For new employees, a performance plan will be provided at the end of the probation period (first three months of employment). In further years, workplans are agreed upon after the July/August performance review has been conducted.

The performance plans/workplans set out the role that the position is expected to play in the organisation achieving its strategic plans and objectives; the actions or activities required to achieve those objectives; and the criteria or standards used to assess the achievement of the objectives. In addition to business plans outcomes, the performance/workplans will include specific project and personal development goals.
