i have disccusion board i need you to do and reply for two discussion board as well.

discussion board question;

Are there laws that govern management’s treatment of employees? If so, what are they, what are they suppose to accomplish, and do they accomplish their goals (in your opinion and/or with factual data)?

Should we need laws to govern management’s treatment of employees? Why or why not?

first discussion board need to reply :

There are certainly laws that govern managements treatment of employees on the books. They were created to benefit, as well as protect, the employee subject to the employers governance. They create a stable and safe work environment for all employees, and set clear guidelines for what is, and is not, okay in the workplace. The Fair Labor Standards Act makes it so an employer cannot demand too long of hours from employees, and must pay them to a certain degree. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act prohibits sex discrimination, and protects employees from a hostile work environment. These are all in place, and do a magnanimous job of protecting employees.

Although i think that we very much so shouldn’t need laws to govern management’s treatment of employees, there certainly is a necessity. Discrimination, sexual harassment, as well as quid pro quo and the likes are all situations that one could find themselves in the workplace, and in a position subjugated due to dealing with a superior. These laws allow employees to remain safe and feel more comfortable, and also lend to developing a culture that prioritizes them more.

second discussion board :

There are numerous laws that govern managements treatment over employees. I went on to the U.S Department of labor website and under the Summary of the Major Laws of the Department of Labor, numerous laws were stated.

Three that I thought were very important were the wages and hours law, the family and medical leave act and workplace safety and health. The Fair Labor Standards Act prescribes standards for wages and overtime pay which affects private and public employment. It requires employers to pay covered employees the federal minimum wage and overtime pay of one-and-one-half-times the regular rate of pay. They also have laws that forbids certain ages working during specific times in their life.

The family and medical leave act requires companies to give 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave to eligible employees for the birth or adoption of a child or serious illnesses to immediate family members. Finally, the workplace safety and health law requires companies to adhere to the standards set for workers to be safe and healthy and away from any possible hazards.

I think it is paramount that management have laws put in place for employees. Unfortunately, if they are not put in place some companies would take advantage of the employees as they want to make as much money as they can for themselves. The laws give some power to the workers and keep them safe and secure and not at the mercy of the management with everything.

Module 11: Implementing a Performance Management System

It is important for HR professionals and leaders to understand the steps for before implementing a performance management system for organizational success. Consider your organization or any organization you are familiar with and evaluate how you would implement a new performance management system for this organization. You will need to include the following themes:

1. Brief overview of the background information of the company and its strategic objectives
2. The implementation of a communication plan
3. The appeals process, which will gain system acceptance
4. The specific training programs for raters which will help minimize unintentional errors
5. Pilot testing of the system that will allow revision and changes to be made before actually implementing the performance management system

It is important to present an in-depth analysis and integrate sufficient support from scholarly resources throughout the assignment. Use suitable headings and subheadings to organize the work in an appropriate manner.

Be sure to support your statements with logic and argument, citing any sources referenced.

Embed course material concepts, principles, and theories, which require supporting citations, along with two scholarly peer-reviewed references in supporting your answer. Keep in mind that these scholarly references can be found by conducting an advanced search specific to scholarly references.

Be sure to support your statements with logic and argument, citing all sources referenced. Post your initial response early and check back often to continue the discussion. Be sure to respond to your peers’ posts as well.

Answer all questions posted by students and your professor. These post replies need to be substantial and constructive in nature. They should add to the content of the post and evaluate/analyze that post answer. Normal course dialogue doesn’t fulfill these two peer replies but is expected throughout the course. Answering all course questions is also required.

COMMENTS from me:

* I need please MAX 2 pages, and MIN 1 Page with at least 2 references.

These are two separate discussion posts not one paper. Both discussion posts need to be completed. Any references used should be in APA format and cited in the body of the posts as well as a reference section. There is no word or page requirement, but please provide the fullest answer possible.

Customer Survey (see attached business plan to help with this post)

Develop a one-paragraph overview of your product or service. Then, identify at least five questions to include in a customer survey.

Industry Analysis

Identify two attractive (growth) and two unattractive (dying) industries to enter into as a new entrepreneur. Provide your reasons for the selections.

This assignment provides students with practice in understanding when or why ANOVA and linear regression are identified based on parameters. Students will learn to implement these statistical measures for better business decision-making.

Assignment Steps

Resources: Week 5 Videos; Week 5 Readings; Statistics Lab

Tutorial help on Excel^® and Word functions can be found on the Microsoft^® Office website. There are also additional tutorials via the web offering support for Office products.

Prepare an 11- to 15-slide Microsoft^® PowerPoint^® presentation for the senior management team based on the business problem or opportunity you described in Weeks 3-4.

Include on the slides what you would want the audience to see (include appropriate visual aids/layout) and include in the speaker’s notes section what you would say as you present each slide. If any source material is quoted or paraphrased in the presentation, use APA citations and references.

Draw on material you developed in the Week’s 3 and 4 assignments.

Include the following in your presentation:

• Introduction slide
• Agenda slide
• Describe the organization, with a brief description
• Explain the business problem or opportunity
• Describe the hypothesis
• Analyze why the business problem is important
• Identify what variable would be best to measure for this problem and explain why
• Identify statistical methods used to analyze data
• Apply data analysis techniques to this problem (tell which techniques should be used: descriptive statistics, inferential stats, probability) and explain why
• Apply a possible solution to the problem/opportunity, with rationale
• Evaluate how data could be used to measure the implementation of such a solution
• Conclusion
• Reference slide (if any source material is quoted or paraphrased throughout the presentation)

Format your assignment consistent with APA guidelines.
