Assignment 3: Managing a Compliant and Diverse Workplace

Assignment 3: Managing a Compliant and Diverse Workplace

Due Week 8 and worth 190 points

Recall from Assignment 1(Assignment 1 is attach) the company had a
few HR-related lawsuits that were not in the company’s favor. To be more
specific, claims of harassment, not reasonably accommodating
disabilities and work-life balance concerns were all issues brought by
employees forcing the company to answer to, and defend itself. As the
new CHRO you want to enact stronger policies and guidelines to avoid
these types of situations in the future.

Write a five to six (5-6) page paper in which you:

  1. Briefly note how harassment in the workplace affects equal
    employment opportunity and describe at least 4 elements a plaintiff must
    show to go forward with a harassment claim. How might an organization
    avoid these elements from occurring? HINT:

  2. Explain your overall understanding on reasonable accommodation of
    disability (consider reviewing ADA rules). Then, discuss a minimum of 3
    things a plaintiff filing a failure to accommodate claim must show that
    helps to prove they are qualified for the job in question.
  3. Make a connection between religious advocacy/harassment and bona
    fide occupational qualification. Can churches promoting a certain
    religion refuse to hire those who have a different religion? If so or if
    not, why?
  4. Discuss your overall understanding of FMLA and the pregnancy
    discrimination act as it relates to organizations granting leave for
    each. Then, identify 2-3 common FMLA mistakes managers make and what you
    would do to avoid the mistakes. HINT: http://www.kansastag.gov/AdvHTML_Upload/files/FMLA-5-Slip-Ups-White-Paper.pdf
