Plagiarism

You are expected to write primarily in your own voice, using paraphrase, summary, and synthesis techniques when integrating information from class and outside sources. Use an author’s exact words only when the language is especially vivid, unique, or needed for technical accuracy. Failure to do so may result in charges of Academic Dishonesty.

Overusing an author’s exact words, such as including block quotations to meet word counts, may lead your readers to conclude that you lack appropriate comprehension of the subject matter or that you are neither an original thinker nor a skillful writer.

If you choose to accept this assignment , i expect it to be plagiarism free!! If you can’t and won’t deliver quality work, don’t accept . Period!!

1.Effective managers can successfully locate and apply relevant human resources laws and regulations. The United States Department of Labor website is an excellent source of reliable information.

Access the search box of the U.S. Dept. of Labor website located at www.dol.gov.

Choose three laws from the list below to research:

·  Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)

·  Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPPA)

·  Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act (COBRA)

·  Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)

·  Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN)

·  Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)

·  National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)

·  Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA)

·  Sarbanes-Oxley Act (see whistleblower protection provisions)

For each of your three chosen laws, provide a bulleted list of five or six relevant facts that you believe have significance for line managers.

2.Should executives receive bonuses if the organization is underperforming? The response may seem apparent, but if you think they should not, would you apply the same standard to your position (assuming you are not an executive)? That is, should you receive a bonus or pay increase only when your company is doing well, even though you do not have a direct impact on the company’s bottom line? Provide an explanation for your response. Support your response with an APA citation and reference.

How Is Policy Formulated?

How policy is formulated is the focus of this discussion. In particular, from the human services perspective, how would policy be formulated on the specific social change problem in the government example Simon offers in Chapter 6 of Public Policy?

1. Briefly describe how policy is formulated in a government situation, knowing that the process is very similar in a for-profit or a non-profit organization.
2. Identify the principal actors in the process (consult the Ryser “Elements of a Standard Policy Statement” reading from your Social Policy Toolbox).
3. Discuss policy development group theory, as applied to your analysis.

You have presented your argument for raises and benefit increases to the management negotiations team. They reply with a proposal of their own during your next meeting. Their proposal offers no increase in wages or benefits. They also ask that employees arrive 15 minutes early to work every day to attend a safety meeting and to review goals. Employees will not be paid for these extra 15 minutes. 

How will you respond to this “offer” from management?  Are there things you are willing to do to entice management into offering a raise? What is your leverage in this situation?

Write 4 pages with 5 references 

Respond to peer

Must be a substantive response and further the conversation.

Hello Class,

With the onset of COVID-19, one side of the family decided to create a Marco Polo group for just the family. Marco Polo is a practical and private communication tool unlike typical social media. It is Video communication with anyone at anytime just like a text. Though most of the family lives in Georgia, we visit with each other often and vacation together yearly. Through Marco polo we can communicate and see each other while still safely quarantining. A social group provides feelings of love, appreciation, and caring by and for others (Stangor, 2016). Thankfully, technology has provided a way to maintain our family social group. In our family Marco polo group we share our feelings of the current situation while providing advice or clarity on specific topics without judgement. We have celebrated birthdays, worked on projects and shared stories as our way to stay connected at any time of the day. As the far away cousin, I was the organizer of the group and am grateful to chat with the family more than ever. Our common goal is to stay connected and continue to interact as we always have. A wine fairy delivers wine every week to each household and we have wine tastings together. Bingo cards have been delivered to everyone in our group and we have family bingo night. At least with Marco polo only one conversation happens at a time, which is never the case when we are together.

Assessment 3 

Use activities, interests, and opinions (AIO) measures to create a psychographic profile for a product of your choice.

• Questions to Consider 

To deepen your understanding, you are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of the business community

• Every business encounters situations where decisions made by another party—or changes in consumer demand—affect the livelihood of the company. Consider how a decision made by another party could affect the company for which you work: o Consider how the company for which you work may respond if the demand for its products or services were to suddenly decrease. What would be the effects of the decrease in demand?o If a dramatic decrease in demand did occur, and you were in charge of addressing the situation, what would you do?o How would the decision of the other party, and your proposal to improve the situation, affect consumer behavior?• Find the consumer segments of the area where you live. You can do this by doing an Internet search; many Web sites allow you to search for demographics by zip code. Once you have located the information you need, consider the following: o What are the consumer segments in the area where you live? What are the characteristics of these segments?o What is your reaction to this information? Is it what you expected? Why or why not?o How might enterprises use this information to their advantage when it comes to marketing their products and services?• Assessment Instructions

Psychographics is an area of market research concerned with measures of consumer activities, interests, and opinions (AIO). Utilize AIO measures to create a psychographic profile for a product of your choice.

Complete the following:

• Select a product that is readily available and describe what it is and how it is used by consumers.• Using the concept of AIO measures (determining how well a particular consumer fits AIO statements), create a psychographic profile for a typical consumer of the chosen product. Note that the profile you outline may be one of many different profiles that are appropriate for the product.• Identify at least two probable items within each of the areas (activity, interest, and opinion) for the profile that you create. As an example, an activity might be “I frequently listen to country music”; an interest might be “I am interested in the latest consumer electronics”; and an opinion might be “International travel is educational for my children.”

Use proper APA style and formatting. The content of your assessment should determine its length.
