• How can we use technology and legislation to prevent workplace discrimination?

Technology and legislation can be used to prevent discrimination by creating apps and other internet platforms to helps explain to candidates based on their experience, education, and job description they can tell you how much you would be making in that position. It can also show users what it would be like to work in these companies the pros and cons. It also helps to find a wider diverse set of candidates for the positions they are looking to hire.

• How should the HR professional approach privacy issues in the workplace?

When it comes to Privacy issues HR professionals need to make sure that they do not step over bound with what information can be tracked or obtained and what information cannot. The reason for this is because there is a privacy act that in place to help keep individuals safe from information being misused by employers or employees. HR professionals need to ensure that they monitor customer privacy, employee privacy, internet security, emails, computers, information on the cloud, health and personal information just to name a few. If HR professionals do not communicate correctly the privacy laws and the company’s privacy laws, there can be lawsuits or even loss of revenue. It is imperative that they know how important it is to communicate the importance of privacy at the business to employees and explain what is covered under the privacy laws. For example if you are working at an elementary school with students with IEP’s their information at the meeting is held to confidential and if you speak with someone about it that is not supposed to know you could be fired for breach of confidentiality. 

• Why are clear expectations important?

Clear expectations ae important because you know exactly what is expected of you. When you explain what the privacy laws of the company and the state is to the employees they understand what can be said what cannot, what can be posted on social media and what can not especially if it is going against the company you can loose your job. If you do something illegal and it was posted on social media and it goes against the company’s policy, you can lose your job. Being aware of what is expected of you and keeping with the privacy laws can save you and the company lawsuits in the long run. It also helps employees to stay on task and stay on the goals that the company has laid out. It also helps them to reach their goals that the company has for them.

• What added considerations might HR have in the health care field?

The health care field is very demanding for the HR professional on top of the basic duties of hiring, firing, training, continued development of job duties and training, evaluations, billing, and the making sure the customers are taken care of.  Some challenges are finding the right candidates for the right positions and shortages in the healthcare field. Wages are always something that most jobs have challenges with because some do not pay well enough for the job they are asking to do. Another thing would be retention keeping employees working for you and being compensated correctly. 

The job characteristics model has five components that enhance employee jobs – skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy and feedback. Give an example illustrating how each component can be used to improve the organization and the job of the employee.

This is a Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) assignment.

The major responsibilities of human resources management (HRM) are attracting, developing, and maintaining a quality workforce. Research an organization, with which you are familiar, that is in need of a change and present how you will manage the change process by incorporating the three essential duties of HRM. Throughout this assignment, teammates will need to demonstrate skills for effective collaboration, negotiation, and teamwork.

Each CLC group will choose one subsystem to change and create a PowerPoint presentation of 12-15 slides (including title and reference slides) addressing the following questions that pertain to the major human resource management responsibilities and to change management. Strengthen your recommendations by showing how your proposed changes are working in another similar organization that is successful.

Address following in your presentation:

1. Provide an overview of the organization you have chosen including three subsystems of the organization, three stakeholders of the organization, and the reason for selecting this organization.
2. What one major organizational subsystem needs to be changed in the organization? Justify your choice. How does it compare to a similar successful organization?
3. How will the subsystem change affect the two other subsystems within the organization that you have identified and how will you realign the total system?
4. Identify and explain how you would ensure that the proposed change will satisfy any three stakeholders of the organization?
5. How should the organization attract, develop, and maintain the workforce required to bring about your proposed change?
   1. Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about attracting a quality workforce to support the change in Questions 2 and 3 above: human resource planning, recruitment, or selection.
   2. Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about developing a quality workforce to support the change in Questions 2 and 3 above: (and this must tie in to 5a too): employee orientation, training and development, or performance appraisal.
   3. Choose at least one of the following in your discussion about maintaining a quality workforce to support the change in Questions 2 and 3 above (and must relate to 5a and 5b): career development, work-life balance, compensation and benefits, employee retention and turnover, or labor-management relations.

Integrate a faith-based or worldview-based component in the presentation and make a clear connection on how it informs the groups’ management practices. (NOTE: Individuals all have a worldview, and that worldview influences their decisions, values, and perceptions. It also affects how they manage people, or think they should be managed. For this assignment, this requirement relates to the worldview of the presenters.)

Students must submit their Peer Evaluations before midnight on the due date of this assignment.

Include at least four academic references to support your position. One of them should directly relate to the company discussed in your presentation and another to the organization to which you are comparing it. These needed to be cited within your presentation not just as references at the end of the presentation.

Include slide notes with your presentation.
