Employee who is contesting an organization’s policy

This week, we learned about the various laws that apply to human resources. Your assignment will challenge you to put that knowledge into action, by constructing a scenario that exemplifies one of the laws presented in your readings this week. Instructions Construct a scenario involving an employee who is contesting an organization’s policy or decision. This could be a policy they feel is discriminatory, unfair, or a staffing or management decision – but you are not limited to only these options. You will assume the role of the health care manager in this scenario, and will listen and respond to the employee’s concerns. In a concise paragraph, summarize the situation. Clearly state the law the employee believes your organization is violating, and why.

In a second paragraph, provide your analysis of the concern raised by the employee. Your response should include relevant sources, as in-text citations. You will need to confirm or deny a violation. In a third paragraph, state the action steps you and the employee will take. If a violation was present, explain how you will rectify the situation. If no violation was present, explain how you will notify the employee. If other parties should also be notified, or if an edit to a policy is needed, state that as well. This documentation will be placed in the employee’s file. Your writing should be professional, unbiased, and reflect a scholarly tone.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
