ENG 464 Assignment 3 2
Item 2
Boss,
The neighbours are complaining about the mud all
over the pavement and their driveways during
trenching and cabling works down Bellhouse Drive.
As you can see, it’s a bit of a mess…
Please advise.
Cheers,
Jimmy

Item 3
Mon. 4/7/16
Boss
This fellow’s crew (see photo attached) have not been inducted, no hi-viz, no hard hat, nothing –
they just turned up for the pile testing over the weekend and JK security let them in!
Want me to boot them off site, or are you OK to sort it out?
Catch you back at Head Office for the monthly meeting this arvo,
Jen

The small print
The submission must be set out, on no more than one A4 page, as
ief notes justifying your
action/decision, and the priority order in which you would, as Site Manager, deal with Items 1 to 3.
Internal students must ve
ally role-play the Site Manager (I shall role-play a member of site staff
concerned in each incident) in class during the afternoon session in Week 8.
External students are not expected to attend the role-play exercise, although you are welcome to
attend and participate if available.
This report is worth 10 % of the marks for this unit.
Submissions are due by 1630 (ACST) on the Thursday of Week 8 (see Learnline for details).
