Sue operated a small fully licensed restaurant that was making a reasonable profit from
the food, but she believed that liquor sales should be higher. Ray, her bar manager,
decided that it would be a good time to take a holiday and it was agreed he would take
three weeks off.
He returned with ten non-alcoholic recipes purchased overseas. He suggested that they
go partners where he would make the drinks and the establishment would sell them and
buy all ingredients. They would split the revenue 80/20 with the large share going to the
business.
All went well for a month until Ray had to leave early and asked Sue to store the
collection of recipe pages in the safe where the evening‟s takings would be stored. At the
end of the night all takings had been by credit card so there was no need to open the
safe.
When she arrived the next morning the recipes were in a different order and in a different
place. They had been read, possibly copied, and the confidential information was now
known by others.
Ray threatened to sue the business.
Work task: As a result of this experience and the resulting costs and embarrassment the
owner of the business has asked you to consider what procedures should be used in the
future to improve the management of information within the business. Write a one page
memo giving your recommendations and your reasons.
