300 word discussion must use outside source

The term liberalism, when applied to governments, is very different from the term liberal in America. Where liberalism implies a limited government, here in the United States a liberal is not usually seen as supporting a smaller government. This can be very confusing. In an effort to better understand these various meanings, we need to explore the variations within liberalism itself.

So who would like to explain how modern liberalism varies from classical liberalism? In addition, in what ways is classical liberalism similar to conservatism today? This discussion question focuses on liberalism vs. socialism.

Along with your textbook reading for the week, here’s some additional reading to consider about liberalism vs. socialism:

Adam Kern, “Liberalism v. Socialism,” Harvard Political Review, May 30, 2012.

Remember to use an outside source in the main post. Must be 300 words and must use an outside source.

Performance Management, management homework help

/in /by

Please write an 8 page Memo to the GM upon reading this scenario.

Scenario: You have just started work as the new Human Resources Manager for Acme Manufacturing, a Fortune 1,000 company. The job has been vacant for six months now. You have been wondering about this, especially since reading about employee harassment incidents and fights recently in the news.

The General Manager (GM) calls you into his office the minute you arrive. He shuts the door after saying a quick word of welcome, and begins to tell you about an incident that happened last week that needs your immediate attention. The company’s manufacturing operations runs three shifts of production workers so the plant is operating 24/7. Over the past six months hostilities have arisen between employees on the third and first shifts. What started out as jeering and criticisms by the first shift, claiming they have to clean up the mess and complete all of the work left undone by the third shift, has escalated to physical confrontations and altercations. Although the GM said that aggressive bantering back-and-forth is common for shift workers in manufacturing, he admitted he was worried after seeing a gun on one of the employees last week that was concealed, or so the employee thought, in a shoulder holster under this jacket. The GM said he needs your help. Specifically, he asked that you:

  • Determine and explain the appropriate disciplinary action for the employees involved in this situation and identify motivational alternatives that can help turn the situation around;
  • Draft policies and procedures that could be used in the guidance and performance management of the shift workers; and
  • Develop performance standards for the shift workers, identify appropriate methods of performance appraisal, and develop appropriate training to help get them back on track.

Feeling overwhelmed by the enormity of the situation, you go back to your office and begin devising a plan to help get employee relations back on track, realizing that human resource policies and practices may help avert potentially dangerous situations in the future if implemented correctly.

Persuasion, Minimum Wage, and HR Law SLP

/in /by

Minimum Wage

The major federal law affecting compensation is the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), which was originally passed in 1938. The FLSA sets a minimum wage to be paid to employees in entry-level positions. The minimum wage is calculated to address the cost of living and other basic needs. The federal minimum wage can only be changed by congressional action. It should be mentioned that if a state’s minimum wage is higher than the federal minimum wage, then the state’s minimum wage must be utilized for compensation purposes. As mentioned above, the minimum wage is determined by the United States Congress, but state legislatures have the option to set the wage higher as can be seen in the tables below.

SLP Assignment

Figure out your state’s minimum wage. Next, discuss whether the United States should only use the federal minimum wage in all states or if each state should have its own minimum wage. Justify your response with examples and research. Lastly, if an organization decides to outsource to a developing nation, should the organization be required to pay the employees in the developing nation at least the federal minimum wage in the United States?

SLP Assignment Expectations

Your paper should be short (2–3 pages, not including the cover sheet, references, and assessment sheet) and to the point. You are expected to deal with these issues in an integrated fashion, rather than treating them as a series of individual questions to be answered one by one and left at that.
