Importance Of Understanding Your Level Of Responsibility

Post by hsidaros » Sat Dec 19, 2015 11:05 pm

Q : Within an early childhood education and care service, different members have different responsibilities.
Explain in your words why it is important to understand your level of responsibility; Guidance : consider the legal aspect of your job

My answer is :
As an educator in, I must have a clear understanding of my role, responsibilities and level of authority, and how I work with others. is helps me provide children-focused care within a supportive team environment. I have a duty of care to work in an ethical way and in accordance with my employer’s policies and procedures.

I must have a clear understanding of the legal framework relevant to my role. This knowledge helps me work safely in a community services environment while supporting clients’ rights.
My responsibilities are documented in my job description, which is provided when I am first employed. This outlines the role, duties and line of reporting for that position. It briefly describes what the organisation expects from me and how this links to the organisation’s goals and objectives. It also describes the interrelationships with others and the resources, training and experience necessary for success. As an employee, I am accountable to my employer for the duties outlined in my position description.

In every organisation, whether it is public or private, small or large, everyone has rights and responsibilities. For example, an employer has a right to expect certain levels and standards of performance from employees; and employees have a right to expect certain conditions from employers. The employer is responsible for the successful operation of the organisation; employees must complete their work tasks to ensure the operation runs efficiently .


Please if anyone can give advice/opinion, thank you

I think your response is good! You could mention that it's important to follow the laws and regulations that you must adhere to as you work within the service setting and it's importance.

Other than that I think is a well thought out response!
