Discussion 1 Topic:
Chapter 3 covers Equal Employment Opportunity and HRM. This
chapter focuses on equal employment opportunities and the laws that govern
this. A
human resource professional needs to have a solid understanding of the concept
and applicability of employment laws in order to be effective. Of most
importance is how they read, interpret, and apply the law in the employment
setting.
Given that understanding, answer the following:
·
Choose one employment law that you have addressed/managed in the
workplace. If you do not have that experience, choose an employment law with
which you are familiar.
·
Clearly define the law in a succinct manner.
·
Finally, assess the positive and negative impacts that the law has
had for both the employee AND the employer, and how best a human resource professional
can both follow that law AND ensure they remain effective and efficient as an
organization.

Why is accounting for employee motivation such
an important aspect of designing today’s jobs? The job characteristic 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.
