Introduction to Glycolysis
Living cells can process certain sugar molecules, rearranging their atoms and this process can supply energy to the cell to power growth and other functions. This process is called glycolysis. Glycolysis evolved billions of years ago when there was no oxygen in the earth's atmosphere and it was therefore impossible for cells to gain energy from the oxidation of sugar molecules using oxygen. Later when oxygen was produced as a byproduct of photosynthesis cells evolved to utilise oxygen to oxidise
This task is about making contact with people and building good communication channels with them. The learning pack contains information, resources and activities to help you: identify chances to build networks and relationships; and communicate the benefits of networking to the team and your organisation.
Manage remuneration and employee benefits

It is assumed that you will already possess skills in the HR functions of recruitment and selection, performance management and industrial relations, and have knowledge of labour economics. It is not recommended that you undertake this Unit as a first Unit in the Diploma.
Safe handling of sharps
Identifying and minimising sharps risks by proper handling and disposal practices, and responding to sharps injury, particularly in health care settings.
Handle food hygienically
As a food handler it is vital for you to know about and follow safe food handling practices. This is to prevent food safety hazards that may lead to food poisoning or even the spread of disease in your workplace. You will need to understand the key risks to food contamination, and the correct practices that need to be followed at each stage of food production. This learning object contains information, resources and activities to help you: identify food sa
