In Community Services legal and ethical question:

You must assess the legal and ethical compliance requirements and responsibilities that must be followed. This will include identifying and researching information on the various compliance requirements of the business and how this must be applied.

You should also assess and act on the need to gain specialist legal advice for your assessment.

This task is to be conducted over the course of your two-week placement block.

Your assessment should determine the:

• Risks, penalties and consequences of non-compliance
• Regulatory bodies that the business is accountable to
• Processes you would use to monitor and maintain compliance, including any accreditations and certifications that must be in place, and distributing compliance information, policies, and procedures to others in the workplace
• Any specific compliance roles and responsibilities and who these should be given to
• Legal and ethical responsibilities that the business has to its employees, clients/customers and the wider community.

Following on from your assessment and report, develop compliance policies and procedures for five different areas of work (for example, business reporting, employee work checks and client record-keeping). These should be documented separately to your report; these must be written clearly, with purpose and meaning, and be free from spelling and grammar errors. I have some answers myself however would like another view point if possible.
