About this Assignment
In this course you learned that employment law is applicable even when there is no intent to harm or discriminate. For this assignment, you will be composing a 1200-1500 word paper based on the real-world example below that describes a workplace fact pattern and claim of alleged discrimination and how such a complaint would be filed with the EEOC. The paper will also articulate the value of diversity in the workplace.
Workplace Scenario:
You are wanting to apply for a position at a medium-sized Midwest manufacturer (600 workers, $130 million sales). One thing you have noticed every day is a sign taped to the entry door to the front office: ‘We are not accepting employment application today.’ After doing some preliminary investigation, you find that the company has NEVER accepted applications from the general public. Any openings are posted each Friday on the bulletin boards in each department. With this, openings have always been filled with applicants referred by current employees. Wages are above market, labor problems are few, worker morale is good, and the company is financially strong. However, you have also found evidence that the company is essentially homogenous in terms of ethnicity and religious affiliation in its workforce, as well as rigid in assignments by gender (women work in the office, while only men are hired for the workshop floor).
Please be sure to include each of the following in your paper:
An explanation of the steps the individual would take to file a complaint with the EEOC. Include a description of the EEOC’s process and how the individual’s claim might ultimately move through the United States court system. Analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the individual’s claim under U.S. anti-discrimination laws.
A discussion of the steps an organization should take in order to minimize the likelihood of discrimination in the workplace.
Identify two current issues or events (in the news within the past two years) raising potential claims of discrimination in the workplace. These issues or events should either be similar or relevant to the issues raised by the hypothetical scenario. You should articulate why these events raise potential discrimination claims and explore how the EEOC and the U.S. court system might respond (or did respond) to these issues or events.
A clear and well-articulated description of the value of diversity in the workplace.
Using Sources
You may refer to the course material for supporting evidence, but you must also use at least two credible, outside sources and cite them using APA format. Please include at least one source from a scholarly peer-reviewed journal. Any laws and legal cases that are cited in the body of your paper must also be included in the References page. If you use any Study.com lessons as sources, please also cite them in APA (including the lesson title and instructor’s name).
Primary sources are first-hand accounts such as interviews, advertisements, speeches, company documents, statements, and press releases published by the company in question.
Secondary sources come from peer-reviewed scholarly journals, such as the American Business Law Journal. You may use resources like JSTOR, Google Scholar, Cornell University Law School’s Legal Information Institute and/or FindLaw to find articles from these journals and related case law. Secondary sources may also come from reputable websites with .gov, .edu, or .org in the domain. (Wikipedia is not a reputable source, though the sources listed in Wikipedia articles may be acceptable.)
