Mr. Moore, the current facts are as follows, you have a female employee that was sexually harassed during several instances. First, she was the subject of various pranks and other forms of workplace bullying by her fellow male colleagues. Second, she was subject to harassment by being spanked by a fellow employee. Third she was subject to verbal harassment by being told to "grow some balls" and also by harassment from male employees putting sings up saying bras optional. Lastly, she was discriminated against by being fired for negligent behavior when there were no repercussions for men acting in similar poor behavior. Since these facts show that Teddy's Supplies' is a culture of hostile working conditions it would be difficult for you, Mr. Moore to show that the company acted prudent to prevent said behavior despite the policies in place and the circumstances. As case law of Teresa Harris v Forklift Systems, Inc. points out a pattern of insulting behavior is a form of sexual discrimination so the fact that a pattern of insulting behavior towards Mrs. Pollard exists does provide evidence that discrimination is present. Given that Mrs. Pollard was the only female in the main warehouse and such an environment was present it is clear Mrs. Pollard was receiving disparate treatment due to the fact she was a female.

My best advice on what to offer for settlement would be two times her salary. Offering two times her salary would pay for the time she had to endure the criticism and harassment she suffered while in the workplace. It would also provide her front pay to make her whole for the time it takes to find another similar job while displaced from the current one. I would also ask her to sign a NDA and also agree that she will not apply for any jobs in the future with Teddy's Supplies'. By providing such a strong offer she will likely desire to settle which will save a lot of money on defense costs and also allow the company to set the terms which will possibly prevent the companies name from being tarnished.

If Mrs. Pollards replacement would have been female the case would not have changed because it doesn't change the facts/circumstances of what Mrs. Pollard faced in her work environment. Since there was a clear pattern of sexual harassment via a hostile work environment it wouldn't have changed the circumstances which Mrs. Pollard had to deal with had a male employee been hired afterwards or not and therefore the damages would also not have changed. Furthermore since the act of discrimination occurred when the company decided to reprimand Mrs. Pollard and not the other male employees hiring a female wouldn't have changed that act of discrimination either. So regardless of who was hired after Mrs. Pollard the acts of hostile work environment and discrimination were carried out before her replacement was hired.

a. As Kobasek explains the EEOC and US Supreme court defines sexual harassment as unwelcome sexual advances, request for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature, which explicitly or implicitly makes submission a term or condition of employment or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment.

Quid pro quo (this for that) sexual harassment occurs when a supervisor makes sexual demands on someone of the opposite sex, and this demand is reasonably perceived as a term of condition of employment. (Kubasek, 568)

Hostile environment sexual harassment is an environment that is one can reasonably deem is abusive and detracts from ones job performance.

b. Based on the facts of the case, Teddy's Supplies' had created a hostile work environment sexual harassment. As our text provides a great case study of Harris v Forklift Systems, Inc. it is clear that continuous, verbal defamation is a form of sexual harassment.

c. As Kobasek explains the three most important defenses to violations of Title VII are bona fide occupational qualification, merit, and seniority. The first defense of BFOQ would not stand scrutiny since Pollard was already working in the job so there is so defense to this position. Merit and seniority both are possible defenses though that are available to Teddy's. As Kobasek explains merit claims must pass a test to be used as a defensible position. Teddy's would argue that Pollard failed content validity in that she failed to properly perform the minimum job standards which is why she was fired. Regarding why only Pollard was fired the defense of seniority systems would be used. (Kobasek, 572) Teddy could argue that the men (who were working in the warehouse before Pollard) were more senior in nature which is why they didn't face the same discipline as Pollard and therefore was the reason for her termination. Kobasek provides a few case examples in regards to this. in Desert Palace v Costa nearly the same circumstances apply as in our case. Costa was the only female but was terminated due to poor conduct with a male employee. The male employee retained his job though.

d. Disparate treatment occurs when one individual is treated less favorably than another because of color, race, religion, sex, or national origin. (Kubasek, 564) I believe the HRC found that disparate treatment had occurred due to the retaliation that Pollard suffered when she was fired for showing her bra. The other employees had clearly also been in the wrong but given that no consequences were given to the men that disparate treatment was present.

There are numerous ways in which the current handbook can be improved. The top 3 ways which to improve the handbook though are as follows:
1) Harassment should be clearly defined as follows: behavior or comments that create a hostile work environment for another person because of race, religion, color, sex, age, pregnancy, national origin, disability, veteran or family status, or any other status or condition protected by applicable federal, state or local laws.
Verbal, physical, sexual or any other form of harassment that belittles or demeans any individual on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age, pregnancy, national origin, disability, veteran or family status, or any other status or condition protected by applicable federal, state or local laws is also strictly prohibited.
Prohibited harassment includes conduct that has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an employee’s work performance or experience or creating an environment that is hostile, intimidating or offensive.
Sexual advances; requests or demands for sexual favors; threats; physical conduct of a harassing nature; jokes; slurs; and other harassing language or conduct that is meant to intimidate or that negatively impacts an employee’s work environment is strictly prohibited. (this is found from my employers own handbook)

2) Discrimination should also be a clearly define term: discrimination against individuals on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age, pregnancy, national origin, disability, veteran or family status, or any other status or condition protected by applicable federal, state or local laws, except where a bona fide occupational qualification applies, is strictly prohibited. (found from my employers handbook)

3) The company should make their reporting guidelines more strict so that harassment doesn't get dragged out and the harassment isn't prolonged: If you do not feel comfortable reporting as listed above or if you did report and are not satisfied with the response, then you should direct your report or dissatisfaction to [e.g., Human Resources Department, Personnel Department, EEO Department, Compliance Department or the President, CEO, owner].

Please note that you are not required to confront the person or persons who have given you reason to report. However, if you experience harassment, you must make a reasonable effort to make it known to those listed above as soon as you experience or discover it. Discussing or reporting acts of harassment to any person not listed above does not constitute a report.

Any employee or workplace participant who harasses another in violation of this policy is subject to discipline, termination, or other appropriate consequences.

(MUST PROVIDE CASE LAW FOR THIS)

...ECON545- Week 6 You Decide Transcript The current rate is at 8 % and is expected to rise further, the inflation rate is -2.4 overall and prices are falling. After consulting with my financial colleagues on how to proceed with the state of our economy, I agree with Raymond Burke, the President does have some control over the fiscal policy but monetary policy is executed by the Federal Reserve Bank. I agree it would be beneficial to lower interest rates which will boost the economy and help individuals get back on their feet. Patricia Lopez suggests the Federal Policy should leave interest rates alone, but should sell bonds and raise bank reserve requirements but I disagree with her because the Federal Reserve normally do not recommend selling bonds and if they do, usually it is not due to monetary policy. I do agree with Allison Tanney which is Congress and the President should work together to lower taxes which will likely stimulate growth and produce sales in the economy. I also disagree with Kathy Lee on recommendations to raise taxes and reduce government spending. Decreasing taxes and increasing government spending will create new jobs opportunities as the government’s consumption of goods and services from our construction industry increases. This will lead to consumer’s confidence, real GDP and marginal profits in the economy. My final recommendation to the President; by lowering rates will encourage consumers to become involved in spending and re-investing in our nation’s...

...You Decide: Whistleblowing Ethics & Legal Issues in the Professions Duane Portwood Wooden, the largest employer in Littlebury, makes wooden objects from shaving and shaping logs. The factory processes about 1,000 logs a day and is open 24 hours, 7 days a week. The entire factory, rafters to floor, is covered by at least an inch of wood dust. The wood dust is not just sitting on everything, but it is also in the air the employees are breathing; they have complained for years, but the owners have not come up with a method to clean the factory on a regular schedule. The airborne wood dust is a definite work hazard, not only because of the possibility of exploding, but also because of the respiratory problem that could arise later in life for those breathing in the dust. In light of the recent incident witnessed by Karen, I believe that I should report this problem to the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and would try to report it anonymously, so that I do not to jeopardize my job. I would call OSHA from a pay phone and start the conversation by saying: “I work at Wooden, and there is at least an inch of wood dust on everything on the factory floor. One of my co-workers saw some quick sparks a few days ago. She reported it to her manager and was told not to worry about it. We are concerned, however, and we would like OSHA to investigate.” I would then inform OSHA that I brought this incident to the attention of the safety coordinator,...

I took over this project a week ago from John, the previous project manager ( DeVry).” 1. Is Bear or is ZAP responsible for the inspections? What is a reasonable course of action given that the project may have to be delayed a week or more? As Project Manager, I believe ZAP responsible, as Bears have managed to handle the refurbishment of the project. ZAP is responsible as no contract was signed regarding any issues. As Bears being a construction company, they are handling all the painting, interior work of the project. They signed a memo with John, the past Project Manager, whose project I have taken over. As the project discusses an issue of doing a quick review of seeing Bear being responsible, I simply believe that does not make sense or prove anything of having them held responsible for the inspections. Bear can’t make efforts to work on the issue as they have already signed the form of contract with John. Bear have told their responsibilities of work in the contract which we should look upon. ZAP shall be held responsible as they are a healthcare industry and doing an inspection is what they should be aware of as they are dealing with medicines which is fragile to human’s health...

Jim mentioned that he is the one who was in charge of providing the grant and that his friend Pat Provedor, who is a sales representative at Timo Manufacturing company and that his services should be utilized. Jim is trying to push me to use Pat’s company and advising that he may be invite me to watch the game in the company’s skybox as an exchange for the business that he will receive. Competitive bidding would be useful in this case because the state would want to go for the cheapest bid but in addition to the most reliable company so that it shows that federal dollars are not being used wastefully. The only impediment that I see is that the Timo Manufacturing Company that was mentioned is not trying to negotiate and it was stated by Jim that they may not be the cheapest but they are good. In this case it poses a problem because there is a small amount of time that I have to make a decision as to the company that I should use.

...Middlefield hospital was once a great hospital that served a variety of patients with the best care. Over the past couple years Middlefield has been having some problem because of the new big hospital in the area. With this new hospital coming to the area Middlefield has been losing many of its patients and getting a lot more uninsured or under insured patients. As CEO of Middlefield hospital I am recommending that do a couple things to improve the current financial performance of the hospital. First I feel like we have to become more competitive with the new hospital. First we need to go in and visit their facility to see what they have over there and what they are doing differently to make all of our patients that have been coming here for years leave and start going over there. First as CEO of Middlefield hospital I would recommend changing their employee’s health plans because with the hospital losing so make money they can’t afford to be paying so much for their health insurance. So by changing to a plan where the employees have a slightly higher co pay and deductible and also a small fee for their prescriptions this would save the hospital a little bit of money but cutting some of that expense. Another way to increase the finances of Middlefield would be to start to advertise in the area that they are the only hospital in the area that has an inpatient mental health department. This is something that a lot of people may not know or maybe just need to be reminded of...

Gm545 Business Economics - You Decide Week 6

...The deep recession, in this example, doesn’t deviate far from our current economic situation we are experiencing as a nation today. With prices falling and unemployment rising, a combination of both monetary and fiscal policy will be needed in order to bring the nation out of this severe recession. Due to falling prices, with the inflationary rate at -2.4%, it is evident that both businesses and individuals are not spending and overall aggregate demand (AD) is falling. The Economic Consultant to the President, Mr. Raymond Burke, has recommended that the President lower interest rates to further help businesses and consumers “get back on their feet.” I agree with lowering interest rates as Raymond Burke said because lowering interest rates should encourage consumption and investment. However, there are some inaccuracies in what Mr. Burke is recommending. The President has neither the ability nor the authority to make adjustments to interest rates. The Federal Reserve (the Fed) is responsible for the discount rate and for setting the reserve requirements. I do not agree with raising taxes as Kathy Lee states because that would mean less money would go to the economy, and as result there would be an increase in prices and/or job cuts. I also do not agree with reducing government spending as Kathy Lee said because this would exacerbate the situation with more contraction in the gross domestic product (GDP). I do not agree with Ms. Patricia Lopez’s, Consultant to the Federal Reserve...
