  2. Human Resource Basics • Human resources are the people who work for a business • Major goals of human resources: • Identify personnel needs • Maintain supply of people to fill needs • Match abilities and interest with specific jobs • Provide training and development • Develop compensation plans • Protect the health and well-being of employees • Maintain satisfying work environment

  3. Federal Laws Regulating Discrimination • Equal Pay Act • Civil Rights Act • Americans with Disabilities Act • Family Medical Leave Act

  4. Ethics in the Workplace • Ethics – principles of morality or rules of conduct • Downsizing – planned reduction in workforce • Outsourcing – removing work from one company to another, typically to save cost • Glass Ceiling – artificial limit placed on minority groups • Labor Unions – an organized group of employees who negotiate with employers about issues (e.g. working conditions, wages, etc.) • Hiring/Firing – adding or terminating workforce

  5. Ethical Scenario Class Discussion • Our personnel recruiting firm has presented an applicant to a company to be considered for employment. He gets close to an offer, but our reference checks show that he doesn’t have a degree. Do we tell the company? Furthermore, he has now been unemployed for over six months. • Repercussions The applicant needs a job. The company wants to hire him. Our company wants the commission for our services. • Questions Do we say nothing and hope they will not notice that he doesn’t have a degree? Should the applicant have to explain the situation? Should we explain the situation?

  6. Assignment • Ethical Decision Making in the Workplace • Step 1 – Two scenarios will be distributed to each group • Step 2 – Work cooperatively and complete Team Worksheet and come to a consensus as to what decision is appropriate • Step 3 – Share and compare with the class • Note: each scenario is from an actual situation that has occurred.
