3. Standard operating procedures
Standard operating procedures (SOPs) are the documented processes that a company has
in place to ensure services and/or products are delivered consistently every time. When a
company is growing, it is often highly dependent on the owner for all major decisions. As the
company reaches a certain size, this form of decision making can limit its capacity to grow
further since the owner cannot possibly make all decisions properly. Additional management
and documented SOPs are required to allow the company to continue growing, and also
establish a succession plan and train the growing employee base.
4. Standard operating procedures
Task – find a SOP (standard operating procedure in your pairs then explain to the group
what it covers)
5. Emergency operating procedures
Task now find an EAP ( Emergency operating procedures ) and explain the difference
6. Quality Checks
Quality checks are to be carried out on specific items to ensure they meet specific criteria.
An example of this could be a football, before the premier league commit to a particular
football make and design it will be checked repeatedly for its quality – Remember the world
cup in South Africa. Can you come up some equipment that will need to be checked in sport
and say what tests you would complete ?
7. Safety checks
Checking equipment or working areas etc for damage or and potential hazardsA safety
check is carried out by whoever will be using the equipment – would you climb a ladder
without checking it is safe ?Safety checks in sport will relate to any equipment being used or
any facilities being populated. For example afety checks will be carried out on gym
equipment and also on the gym room its self for things such as lighting and air conditioning
8. Staff Training
Staff Training is simple – It is the training of staff in a certain area to learn or improve on a
particular skillStaff training will refer to every employee and they will need to complete, in
some cases specific tasks to be able to work on a particular machine or in a particular
areaExample – bar staff will need to be able to mix and pour drinksGym staff will need to be
able to induct gym membersReceptionists will need to use computer systems
