...disable) and young males. Companies are trying to aim towards diversity and equality, and are establishing equal chances for everybody of both sexes. The polish labor market is fully implementing equality, but there is still discrimination against women. In this article they talk about why diversity, including gender diversity is so important. Women in Poland represent over half of the population, which is about 52%. The women are educated on various levels than men. The women that are deployed are better education than the working men. It does not matter in Poland because all of the decision making position in business or politics are taken by men. There have been significant changes in the last few years. Women have increase interest in male jobs, like police, transportation, bus and tram drivers. Women advancement has still been hindered. Another problem is that women are discriminated against when it comes to pay. Even if they are in the same positions the man are paid more. This is observed in the European Union. Gender diversity is happening in Poland as far as employment. Not all companies have introduced equal treatment of women and men. They have mechanisms in place but they are not effective. The attempt to eliminate workplace discrimination and sexual harassment has had little success. We can say that women are definitely being ignored and unappreciated in business; both as employer and consumer. Article:...

...Evidence of Discrimination Introduce material here… Start the first sentence with the purpose statement followed by your introduction. Please post case studies in Turnitin Assignment Drop Box as a MS Word document. Remember, each case study must have the heading listed below and must be answered according to instructions; each heading is worth a percentage of each case grade. This is how I want your paper turned in. The introduction is generally one paragraph. The easiest way to explain this section is to think of it like an abstract or introduction. This section, if written properly, can actually act as the abstract for this paper. It will, in a sense, set up the rest of the paper, which is the review of the case, analysis, recommendations, and the summary and conclusions sections. If there is a second paragraph, it will look like this. An interesting APA fact is that there is only one space after the period. This is difficult for many to get used to and takes practice. The paper should be written in third person narrative. I do not want to see you writing in the first person. Note: I have bolded the required headings that must be present in the paper and please keep bolded. Answer the following questions by applying the concepts learned in Chapter 1. Also, conduct literature reviews on the subject of discussion and use to support your case study answers: (1) Based on the evidence presented, has discrimination occurred? If so, which type of discrimination (i.e., disparate...

...Affirmative Action Assignment Leslie Penwell HSM-240 August 14, 2011 Todd McGonigle Axia College of University of Phoenix Affirmative Action Assignment To the board of directors, in my opinion I believe that it is most important for this organization to implement affirmative action policies. I do believe that in the past the organization has been accused of past discrimination. It is my understanding that the accusation is that the company will not hire people of color or at a certain age they have also been accused of not hiring women. It sounds to me that the organization as a whole needs a major over-haul. It would better for the company to implement this on their own before they receive a court order. This is also against the equal employment policy that the company tries to enforce. The basic steps in developing an effective Affirmative Action Program are as follows. 1. Issue a written equal employment opportunity policy and affirmative action commitment. 2. Appoint a top official with responsibility and authority to direct and implement the program. 3. Publicize the policy and affirmative action commitment. 4. Survey present minority and female employment by department and job classification. 5. Develop goals and timetables to improve utilization of minorities and women in each area where underutilization has been identified. 6. Develop and implement specific programs to achieve goals. 7. Establish an internal audit and reporting system to monitor...

...Employment Law Assignment 1. Define BFOQ and list to which characteristics it applies BFOQ stands for Bona Fide Occupational Qualification which functions as a defense to a suit for discrimination for employers with regards to religion, national origin, gender, and age. Employers may discriminate for the causes mentioned above if they can establish that a "bona fide occupational qualification" exists. This qualification defense does not apply to race and color. Under the ADEA (Age Discrimination in Employment Act), it is unlawful for an agency to discriminate on the basis of age unless the agency can establish that the age limitation is a “Bona Fide Occupational Qualification” necessary to the performance of the duties of the position. 2.

...CapraTek: Workplace Discrimination JacQuetta Mann Professor Robert Bigelow HRM 5118 December 5, 2015 Introduction CapraTek is a successful organization and like all organizations, they have come across some issues dealing with work place discrimination. The company has a potential problem that needs to be looked into and resolved. The issue is that a group of employees were in the lunchroom on a break. They were apparently watching a video of something on someone's tablet and the volume was apparently rather loud. One of CapraTek’s clients was passing through the room, heard at least part of the video and found it extremely inappropriate. Due to this incident CapraTek may have lost a major order because of this. There were several employees who were involved and have issued statements about the incident (CapraTek Media Case). CapraTek’s way of communication their policies and missions could be an explanation on why this type of behavior is happening. An organization has to make sure that their mission and policies are communicated with in the organization. There needs to be an updated discrimination policy that should be communicated to employees. The policy should state that a discrimination policy has been implemented due to concerns of discrimination acts rising. The purpose of the policy is to provide information about ways to prevent and respond to discrimination if it shall happen. This way CapraTek can achieve the...
