Compensation Management
Â
The textbook Compensation Management in a Knowledge-Based World spends several pages defining important legislation that affects employment in the U.S. (see pp. 81-105). Choose 1 piece of legislation (Act or Amendment) from one of the following sections:
Wage & Hour Legislation
- Pension & Benefits Legislation
- Antidiscrimination Legislation
- Legislation for Public Employees
Briefly explain the legislation in your own words, discuss whether it has achieved the intended effect on employee’s rights and compensation, and explain how you might recommend strengthening this legislation. Incorporate applicable current events into your discussion. Be sure to cite your sources, if any.
Specifically:
- What points would you add to your peers’ discussions to support their positions?
- Where do you and your peers disagree?
- How practical were your peers’ discussions of how to strengthen the laws? Would these plans be difficult to implement in the “real world?â€
HRA 498
How do the major activities and systems of HR workers (e.g., Strategic HR, Selection, Recruitment, Retention, Training, Performance Appraisals, Compensation, Benefits, Risk Management and Union/Management Relations) intersect with the major business systems of organizations (Marketing, Management, Accounting, Economics, Legal, Information Systems, International Business, the Quantitative areas, and the Finance area)? Do they cross paths? How? Are HR workers informed about other areas of the business? Cite the opinions of some experts (journals, etc.) who talk about the issue of how HR can be better integrated with the other actual business areas of an organization.
Your initial response should not consist solely of opinion statements, but be supported by factual information. As references, you may use your textbook or other articles and resources. Remember to use APA format for in-text reference citations.
PSY 338
Having read about psychology’s entrepreneurs and the marketing of industrial psychology, post a considered opinion of why psychology’s testing technology was widely accepted but scientific management was widely criticized. What differences existed between the two that resulted in their having different experiences? What was it about the zeitgeist of the times that resulted in these outcomes? If both were introduced (as brand new) to society tomorrow, would the outcome be any different? How would they be accepted if they were introduced tomorrow?
