Scenario
The
Sleep Tight! Resort and Conference Center of Albuquerque, N.M. has a
staff of over 300 full time employees and 100 seasonal employees in 10
different job categories. For the past twenty-five years the resort has
been run by the Clause family. The Clause family has had experience in
running several small motels and were very knowledgeable of the
industry. However, while they tried to treat the employees fairly, Mimi
Clause, the Manager, knew nothing of proper HR practices and tended to
make arbitrary decisions. She left many of the HR decisions to the
employment department which consisted of a secretary and an employment
supervisor who had been a secretary for Mimi’s mother. Eighteen months
ago, the family decided to hire Frank Jones as the new Manager of the
resort.
After evaluating the current operations, Frank Jones, decided that
the Resort was in fairly good shape except for the lack of standardized
Human Resource practices. Very little information existed to support any
of the past employment decisions, especially in the area of selection.
Although Jones does not have any direct experience in HR, he had taken
several courses in HRM while in college.
In the last eighteen months, Jones has encountered several problems. He would like you to:
- Evaluate the situation and identify the problem
- Include short bullet point recommendations for each weekly assignment.
QUESTIONS
3a. Ma Clause has been receiving pressure from several local
organizations to develop an affirmative action program. While the resort
does not have any government projects, she feels that an AAP would be
in the best interest of the resort. Mr. Jones wants you to provide a
summary of AAPs along with an audit procedure for evaluating the current
situation and establishing goals.
3b. Recently several disabled individuals applied for jobs at the
resort. Out of panic all were hired by the managers. Mr. Jones now wants
to know the Resorts responsibility under the law and a recommended
course of action.
