A thorough response is needed for all two discussion questions and response to Erica Woods responses as well. She has to responses to be responded too. A Paragraph or more is needed for each response. Therefore there should be four responses total given, (two responses to the two discussion questions and two responses to Erica Woods responses ) just to be clear.

1) Go to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission website http://www.eeoc.gov/eeoc/litigation/selected/syste… and select one (1) case from the list. Then, assess the major federal provision that was violated. Recommend at least three (3) action steps to avoid making a similar violation as hiring manager.

  • EEOC v. FedEx Freight East, Inc., fka American Freightways, Inc. (E.D. Mo. Oct. 31, 2005)The Commission alleged that American Freightways discriminated against African-American employees at its St. Louis terminal by selecting them for promotion from part-time to full-time dockworker jobs at a slower pace than whites, treating them adversely with respect to work assignments, training, and skill-development opportunities, and failing to promote an African-American employee into a dock foreman job because of his race. Under a consent decree, 20 aggrieved individuals shared $500,000 in monetary relief. Defendant must report quarterly to the Commission for 3 years on promotions to dockworker and city driver positions.It is against the law for any employer to discriminate based on sex, race, religion, ethnic background, age, or disability. Race discrimination means treating individuals differently because of their race or color. According to Workplace Fairness you may be a victim of racial discrimination if “You apply for a job for which you have experience and excellent qualifications. You are not hired because some of the company’s long-time clients are not comfortable working with African-Americans. You are told that you are being laid off due to company cutbacks and reorganization, while white employees with the same job and with less seniority than you keep their jobs. You have worked for your company for several years, receiving excellent reviews and an employee-of-the-year award, yet each of the five times you have applied for promotions, the positions you applied for are instead filled by less qualified people of a different race.”

    1. As a hiring manager I would put in place a points system that determines promotions. This will ensure that everyone is being treated fairly. You will receive points for things such as reaching goals, being on time to work every day of the month, amongst other things. This will ensure that everything that the employees ae doing are being considered as well as documented. I would also make sure employees know where they stand as far as points every 3-6 months.
    2. As a hiring manager I would create a solid promotion policy. This will include an unbiased selection of principles that doesn’t create obstruction to the protected categories.
    3. As a hiring manager I would make sure all employees are achieving their goals and giving their best work. I would offer a path for those wanting to move up in the company and provide training and opportunities to increase knowledge and skills.

Performance

Employees usually produce the largest costs to a company, and measuring performance is imperative to the management process. Tracking employee performance but not including it in the promotion process defeats the purpose of promotions in my eyes. Employee performance is usually measured by evaluating the production amount of each employee as well as how well they work, and how fast they work. Employee production symbolizes the amount of goods or services an employee produces in a certain amount of time. This section should always be considered when doing promotions because it allows you to put your best employee ahead to be able to show others how to succeed.

Communication Skills

Communication leads to growth in overall company performances. Being able to communicate to employees what will be looked at for promotional purposes, this will ensure everyone knows what to do in order to get a promotion. Employees want to feel safe that they are receiving truthful and modernized information from their superiors. As an employee I like knowing that I have the ability to share my ideas, thoughts and concerns within the company.

Profession

There has been many cases where an individual has been working for a company for years and is looking to get a supervisor position and the position was filled by someone new or someone who is more qualified. I think there should be something in place where the current employees aren’t being overlooked due to new people wanting to apply every time and being more qualified.

The quality and length of your responses are important to how effectively they contribute to class discussions. The quality of your responses during discussions is an important way for you to demonstrate your comprehension of course material. “I agree” and “Yes, that’s correct” are NOT quality responses and will NOT count. Quality responses illustrate your level of understanding of the subject by expanding upon the original statement, whether it is a discussion question or a comment made in class. Likewise, if you do not fully understand a particular subject, here is your chance to ask a question about it. Legitimate questions about course subjects usually generate further class discussions. Correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, and sentence structure are expected in all of your assignments. I encourage you to carefully edit all assignments that you post. If any words or ideas are used that do not represent your original words or ideas, you must cite all relevant sources. If your responses are quite short, it shows that you do not have enough knowledge of the subject to converse adequately. This implies that more reading is necessary. The reply should be a paragraph or more. will not tolerate acts of falsification, misrepresentation, or deception. Such acts of intellectual dishonesty include, but are not limited to, cheating or copying, fabricating data or citations, stealing examinations, the unauthorized use of instructor editions of textbooks, taking an exam for another student or having another student take an exam intended for oneself, tampering with the academic work of another student, submitting another’s work as one’s own, facilitating other students’ acts of academic dishonesty, using internet sources without citation and plagiarizing.

Plagiarism Policy: The following actions constitute plagiarism:

Using someone’s words and ideas and presenting them as your own original thoughts

Using someone’s exact words and ideas without placing them inside quotation marks, using in in-text citations, and including a reference page

Using someone’s words or ideas without citing them in in-text references (parenthetical references) and on a reference page

Using someone’s words or ideas, changing the wording (paraphrasing), and failing to cite them in in-text references and on a reference page

Submitting the same assignment for two different classes (self-plagiarism) without the professor’s knowledge

Plagiarism may be intentional (purposely passing over another’s ideas as one’s own) or unintentional (inadvertently failing to cite someone’s ideas and/ or words). Either one MUST be reported to Academic Student Affairs.

Unintentional plagiarism usually occurs because a writer is unfamiliar with the idea that he or she has to give a source credit for his or her ideas by using in-text references and a reference page.
