Implement and Monitor Environmentally Sustainable Work Practices

Investigation of current practices

According to the Australian waste management legislation the environmental protection Act 1990, section 34 every person must be required to have the concern of handling the waste material materials in a concerted manner (Ward et al. 2019). In the case of Roman Cafe, they didn’t maintain this legislation accordingly. As per the Australian legislation of 2011, plastic was banned in Australia.

Therefore, the Roman Cafe must maintain the concerning rules.

The Roman Cafe is utilizing two different waste bins one is a recycling bin and the other is a general waste rubbish bin (Dal Cason, Casini  and Hellemans, 2020). Therefore, the members of Roman Cafe turn off the lights to maintain the sustainability regulations. However, they properly utilized the purpose of the bins.

According to the average estimation, a small business sector can utilize 15,000 to 25,000 kWh of electricity per year. In the case of Roman Cafe, they are consequently using 23,124 kWh and 24,349 kWh energy resources every six months. Therefore, this is one of the greatest issues which is associated with the business of Roman Cafe.

The company must be required to maintain more sustainability practices like they will be required to more effectively utilize the single time use materials. They can organize different sustainability programming. The Roman Cafe can gain 30% from its renewable resources. This will help them to decrease their electricity efficiency.

The utilization of the solar energy system can help Roman Cafe to save electricity resources.

The Roman Cafe must reduce the amount of food waste and minimize the number of waste materials.

Provide sustainable and fresh food to the customers and increase the number of vegetable or vegan items in the menu card offered by Roman Café (Ekins, Domenech and Drummond, 2019).

The Roman Cafe will need to use clear utensils to make the foods.

The utilization of the ERP software supports the Roman Cafe to gather the information that is associated with the business. However, the implementation of the ERP software only supports collecting data associated with the supply chain. However, the Roman Cafe can utilize the social media platform to gather business information. The approval of the high authority will help to implement the entire matter properly.

Following the framework of ISO 14001 supports the quality assurance of Roman Cafe.

The Roman cafe only involves the suppliers certified with ISO 14001 and their warehouses must be within 50 km from the cafeteria. The purchasing orders are applied based on all the previously discussed factors. The involvement of the ERP software, Odoo, enhances the supply chain system of Roman cafe Coffee (Garza-Reyes et al. 2018).

The proper monitoring system will enhance the quality assurance of the Roman Cafe.

The implementation of social networking sites will enhance the purchasing-procurement and supply chain system.

Connecting through the social networking site and implementing enhanced researchable strategies can be considered as the best way to improve business sustainability. This will help the Roman Cafe to gain the trustworthy support of the stakeholders. This will also bring the opportunity to provide more sustainable services with quality materials.

The 12 monthly resources

Resource	Quantity over the past 12 months
Electricity	47473 kWh

• Meeting organization and setting the target of the improvements

The Roman cafe particularly wants to reduce the waste materials from un-recyclable materials.

The meeting will be set up between the Roman Cafe Manager stakeholders.

Sustainability is one of the foremost aspects of today’s world especially in the context of business like operating a cafeteria. Maintaining the hygiene properly will help to prevent the issues with Covid 19. The involvement of different climate changing solutions must be the prior target of the Roman cafe.

As a team leader, I utilized internet-based resources to gather information.

The proper monitoring system will help the Roman cafe overcome issues like improper utilization of waste materials and energy resources. Therefore, utilizing plastic substantial products will help the Roman cafe to maintain more effective sustainable aspects.

The Roman cafe will be required to avoid the utilization of single-use utensils. This will help to reduce the number of waste materials within three months. The Roman cafe must be required to analyze the monthly utility bills to save the electricity resources.

Good morning everyone, I am the team leader of Roman Cafe’s Café.

We have arranged this meeting to discuss the way of improving the sustainability aspects of the Roman Cafe’s Café.

This meeting will continue for the upcoming 30 minutes.

We need all your support to improve our sustainability aspects.

The ERP technology helps to gather the resources of the Roman Cafe.

I think charging for the takeout container will help us to control the level of carbon footprint. The utilization of the inventory management system will help us to reduce the amount of food wastage.

During this meeting, we are going to focus on the sustainability factors of Roman Cafe’s Café

During the last year, we have used 1,066 disposable coffee cups.

• The involvement of the different strategies will help to control the aspects of waste management. The first thing that is required to do is to distinguish all the materials. The Roman Cafe’s Café must reduce the practice of replacing instead of repairing the workplace materials. Reusing and recycling materials is one of the greatest strategies for improving the practices of waste management. The utilizations of the recycling tools like crushers, bag openers and recycling sorting machines will support us to improve the practices of waste management. The estimation of $25,000 might help to successfully implement the entire planning. The implementation of the perfect monitoring tools will support the monitoring practices of the Roman Cafe’s Café.

• Implementation of the strategic improvements

Hello and good morning everyone, I am your team leader and today

I have arranged this meeting to inform you something. Our Roman Cafe is going to introduce some strategies that can help us to enhance the sustainability aspects of our cafeteria. We are hoping this strategy is going to protect us from the evil impact of covid 19 by enhancing our hygiene maintenance.

We will just take 30 minutes from your respective schedule for this meeting.

You can contribute your suggestion if you want to suggest anything more.

We are going to provide some recycling tools to enhance our sustainability such as we are purchasing crushers, bag openers and recycling sorting machines.

I think playing a short drama will help us to understand the whole matter strategically.

Suppose a customer is throwing recyclable material on the non-recyclable waste bin, now what should we do.

Barista: Here’s your coffee, enjoy and please put the waste materials in the right bins after completing your coffee.

Customer: Okay, thank you.

(After finishing the coffee she is going to throw the waste materials on the wrong bin)

Waitress: Mam please throw the waste in the right bin, please check it once before throwing your waste.

We are going to charge a little extra from our customers for managing our environmental assets. After charging it we will provide a badge to our customer for helping us for maintaining environmental sustainability.

If any have any more suggestions, then please don’t hesitate to mention that.
