BUSI530 Week 6 Dropbos Assignment 2

  

For this assignment, you are to select one of the four cases listed below dealing with employment discrimination based on age and religion. Prepare a paper in which you discuss the facts of the case, the relevant provisions of the statute, and how the court interpreted and applied the provisions of the statute to the issues presented in the selected case.

Age Discrimination (Age Discrimination in Employment Act) Cases 

Religious Discrimination (Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964)  Cases

Your paper should begin with a discussion of the essential facts of the case, including a brief summary of the lower court decision(s) which gave rise to the appeal. Your discussion of the facts should be followed by a detailed analysis of the case. Your analysis should indicate what legal issues are presented in the case – in other words, what issues is the Court attempting to address and resolve? Some cases might have only a single issue, while others may have more than one. After you have described the facts and identified the legal issues presented, you should identify the relevant provisions of the law that the Court is interpreting in the case. In other words, what is the rule of law that governs the Court’s analysis of the case? Finally, you should summarize the Court’s decision, or holding, in the case, and discuss how the Court reached its decision. You should also consider and discuss the practical implications of the Court’s decision for both the employer and the employee.

Human Resources Questions (2)

PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS 

 Rhonda is hired by Sandley Vacuum Sales as a door-to-door salesperson without conducting any form of background check. Rhonda has a record of physically assaulting people who displease her. On her first day of work, she physically assaults three women who decline to purchase her products after she spent over an hour trying to convince them to buy her products. If the victims sue Sandley Vacuum Sales, do they have a reasonable chance of prevailing? 

 Kellie was employed with the Western Phone Company as a telephone operator for ten years. Bored with this job, she applied for a job position within the same company as a telephone repairman which paid $10 per hour more than she was currently earning. This position required the employee to be able to climb to the top of a telephone pole wearing a tool belt weighing approximately 15 to 20 lbs to make repairs. The Western Phone Company refused to admit Kellie into the training program for the position claiming that she was incapable of performing the duties of the position because she was female. Discuss this scenario from both Kellie’s and the Western Phone Company’s point of view. Include the basis for the relevant claims and defenses.

You should clearly state your mission and clearly state your vision. VSU has a vision and mission statement.
