10 MS. STEEL: During the day time how many employees went out on
11 the environment/index.html">litter patrols?
12 A. It will be two to three by shift, two to three by
13 shift.
14
15 Q. But on each individual patrol how many would go out on
16 that?
17 A. On individual patrol, there would be one, sometimes it
18 is two depending on how busy. If you have got -- if you
19 are not that busy you would send more.
20
21 Q. If it was very busy they did not go?
22 A. There were occasions when it has been missed out.
23
24 Q. Who kind of supervised the patrols?
25 A. It is done by -- it is checked by the shift manager.
26
27 Q. The shift manager?
28 A. Yes, but the dining area host or hostess organises it.
29
30 Q. When you were there how many people were working in the
31 dining area at any one time?
32 A. At any one time it could be three, four, even five.
33
34 Q. Right. What about when it was quiet?
35 A. When it is quiet, it could be two, it could be three,
36 because what happens is that people on the dining area also
37 cover the front counter sometimes, so it can vary at any
38 point in time. There could be three, four, there could be
39 back to two.
40
41 Q. So they are on the dining area, but if it gets busy on the
42 counter then they get shifted round to the counter?
43 A. Yes, they can be.
44
45 Q. What checks did you make to see whether the patrols were
46 being carried out or not?
47 A. It was the responsibility of the dining area host or
48 hostess to make sure that they were done, and then the
49 shift manager will go, whenever he feels like it, or
50 whenever he thinks he has got time to go out, it could be
51 two times, three times, four times in a shift.
52
53 Q. So, the dining area host is just responsible for saying to
54 them: "You go out and do it now".
55 A. Right.
56
57 Q. They do not actually follow them around or anything like
58 that?
59 A. No, initially, during the training period, they will
60 but she will go out when he comes back, or she comes back,
