Report Writing Assignment:

Task:

Assume that you are employed by a consumer watch group (CHOSEN) to assess sustainability performance of organisations. You have been assigned by your General Manager, Teresa Green, to assess Wesfarmers Limited. Wesfarmers Limited is an Australian conglomerate, headquartered in Perth, Western Australia, with interests predominantly in Australian and New Zealand retail, as well as in chemicals, fertilisers, coal mining and industrial and safety products.

The sustainability reports for 2014 and 2015 are accessible through the two links below:
2014 report: http://www.wesresources.com.au/sustainability_report_2014/
2015 report: http://www.wesresources.com.au/sustainability_report_2015/

Requirement for Part A
Provide an internal report to Teresa so she can combine it with reports about other companies that she will present to the board of directors. In your internal report (under a section named “Wesfamers Comparison”) assess and compare the 2014 sustainability report to the 2015 sustainability report in relation to the G4 GRI Guidelines. You should note areas of improved sustainability performance for the three aspects; economics, environmental and social (also considering the four (4) sub-categories of the social aspect) between the 2014 and the 2015 report. Try to
think which of the guidelines would be most relevant to this business. Does the report contain targets? How detailed (well specified) are these targets?

PART B Company’s Sustainability reports comparison written in two countries
Secondly, as an employee of a consumer watch group, you are asked to make a comparison on the sustainability reporting by Fuji Xerox Australia Pty Limited. You note that Fuji Xerox Australia Pty Limited sustainability did release a 2014 report available on the websites http://Www.Fxasustainability.Com.Au/2014/ but not a 2015 report. You find that the 2015 sustainability report was produced by Fuji Xerox Head Office in Japan. (available on https://www.fujixerox.com/eng/company/sr/2015/booklet.html).

You notice some differences in the guidelines used for reporting and disclosure in its Japan 2015 sustainability report compared to the 2014 report produced in Australia.

Requirement for Part B
Provide in your internal report the following information under a separate section named “Fuji Xerox comparison”
1. What different guidelines were used in the 2015 report compared to the 2014 report?
2. What factors would cause the different influences in these reports produced in Australia (2014) and Japan (2015)?
3. Assess and compare the 2014 sustainability report to the 2015 sustainability report in relation to the G4 GRI Guidelines.

PART C Professional Writing style, Conclusions, and Recommendations

You are required to develop separate conclusions based solely on your analysis under
(1) Part A for Wesfamers and (2) Part B for Fuji Xerox. Your recommendations you formulate must be then based on your conclusions (that is, no new discussion or analysis can be introduced into either your conclusions or your recommendations). Your report writing, sentence structure, and grammar must be prepared in a highly
professional manner and format.

PART D Reflective journal of personal development
Your reflective personal journal should be completed separately to the internal report BUT in the same Word document under the heading “PART D Reflective journal of personal development”. Your writing should reflect on how your personal development has been aided by your completion of the two assessment tasks.

An example of a reflective journal will be provided on the ACC8801 study desk. When completing your reflection journal on personal development, you should consider what you have learned by completing the various topics of the five (5) modules.
1. The concepts, essential principles, and stakeholders of corporate governance, ethical and moral obligations, and social responsibility;
2. Corporate governance in Australia and the impact on board and committee functions and structures and company officers’ training, induction, and behaviour to protect the interests of diverse stakeholders in the corporation;
3. Principles of good corporate governance and corporate disclosure requirements;
4. The main theories and elements of Corporate social responsibility (CSR);
5. Current and future directions Sustainability accounting and integrated reporting of environmental, social, and governance (ESG).

You also should reflect on how you could apply these learning outcomes to your current employment situation or to a real world situation that you are likely to experience in the near future. Specific prompts to help you through your reflective journal are provided in the marking criteria at the end of this document.
