Additional Notes: 

NOTE: In distinguishing between this Unit group and Minor group 312, Mining, Manufacturing and Construction Supervisors, it should be noted that both managers and supervisors may plan, organize, co-ordinate, control and direct the work done by others. In addition, managers usually have responsibility for and make decisions about: the overall strategic and operational direction of a business or organizational unit (for example about the kinds, quantity and quality of goods to be produced); budgets (how much money is to be spent and for what purposes); and the selection, appointment and dismissal of staff. Supervisors may provide advice and assistance to managers on these matters, but do not have authority to make decisions.
