Industrial/Commercial Practices Practices in Industrial/Commercial Setting Practices used in my MDP Research In an Industry/Commercial setting the four main types of research would be practiced.  Descriptive Research: explains and describes the current situation, this may be carried out by interviews, surveys and analysis of data.  Historical Research: carried out to reconstruct events that happened in the past, this may be carried out by diaries, past records and autobiographies.  Experimental Research: is research that occurs as a result of planned experiments.  Operational Research: involves evaluating the performance of an operating system ie. The environmental impact as a result on a product. In an Industry/Commercial setting the source research data collected can be divided into two sections. Primary and Secondary data. Primary data is research conducted first hand, ie. Interviews and surveys. Secondary data is data obtained as a result of other people’s research, ie. Mass media(newspapers, radio etc), published materials(textbooks and journals), other resources(Internet, diaries and photographs) Research can be classified as either quantitative research, or as Add your content here

Industrial/Commercial Practices Qualitative research. Quantitative research is research that gathers data that can be expressed in statistical or numerical form. Where as Qualitative research examines people's feelings about a particular issue or event. In an Industrial/Commercial setting testing and experimentation must be carried out. The basic experimental procedure includes:  Establishing the aim  Working out the most appropriate method  Conduct the experiment  Collating the results  Drawing a conclusion Development In an Industrial/Commercial setting after the research has been conducted the industry would gain a statistical analysis, which involves classifying and interpreting numerical facts. These conclusions that are drawn from the statistics prove or disprove the hypothesis. In an Industrial setting the researcher needs to be constantly aware of where the data came from and what they hope to learn from it if they are to make valid conclusions. Once the research has been conducted, along with the testing and experimentation the interpretation and presentation of the data found has to be carried out. The interpretation of data should point out the significance of the information in relation to the research composed. This involves clarifying significant aspects, common elements, tendencies, trends, unexpected results and relationships between data. Enter your content here

Industrial/Commercial Practices When presenting, the data should be presented in a way that is appropriate to the information, and the results should be clear and easy to read. Qualitative data is reported in text, with properly structured sentences etc. Quantitative data is usually reported in table, chart or graph format. These can include pie charts, histograms, and a range of graphs including pyramid, line, column, or bar and would be generated using computer spreadsheets. The ethics involved within the Industrial/Commercial setting would include:  Invasion of Privacy  Confidentiality  Misleading Information  Intellectual Property, including - patents - trademarks - designs - copyright - trade secrets Enter your content here

Occupational Health & Safety Issues Practices in Industrial/Commercial SettingPractices used in my MDP Hazards are anything that can potentially cause harm to anyone working within an organisation. To reduce injury due to hazards there are a set of guidelines called Risk Management. These guidelines are:  Identifying Hazards  Assessing the risks  Eliminating or controlling hazards  Ongoing monitoring and reviewing of hazards. Hazards may be identified through various techniques such as:  Workplace inspections  Injury and incident investigation  Safety reviews  Day to day observations In an Industrial/Commercial setting there are Legislative requirements; this refers to what must be done to satisfy the law. There are a multitude of Federal and State laws and regulations in relation to health and safety and there are penalties for organisations and individuals that are found guilty of breaching these laws. The Occupational Health and Safety Act 2000 This Act aims to reduce the high level of workplace injury and to ensure employers consult with their employees to make certain the workplace is safe and without risk. The purpose of the OH&S Act is to protect employees and the general public but its primary aim is to protect the health, safety and welfare of people in the workplace environment.

Occupational Health & Safety Issues Practices in Industrial/Commercial SettingPractices used in my MDP The Act aims to:  Ensure the health, safety and welfare of all employees  Protect other people at the workplace, such as visitors  Promote a working environment that suits employees’ physical and psychological needs.  Provide a framework of protection that uses regulations, codes of practice, standards and joint consultation. In an Industrial setting Occupational Health and Safety work best when the principles of health and safety are incorporated into the organisation’s overall plans and strategies. This is achieved when both the employee and employer participate in the process. In a Commercial setting some key organisations are:  The National OH&S Commission  Standards Australia International Limited.  NSW WorkCover Authority  The Worker’s Compensation Advisory Council of NSW  The OH&S Council of NSW  The National Safety Council of Australia.  The NSW Department of Fair Trading.  The Fair Trading Tribunal.
