Ageism in the Global Workplace
For this assignment, you will research an age discrimination case brought against a corporation or public institution anywhere in the world and settled within the past three years (since 2011). As an owner, executive, or manager of an organization of any size, you will be involved in decisions and policies that promote sound leadership and healthy employee relationships at all levels of the corporation.
1. Describe the corporation or public institution you have chosen to study. Include its main business or mission, location(s), size, total number of employees, sales, and S&P or Fortune 500 rating (if applicable).
2. What was the situation leading to the lawsuit? Be sure to cite and reference all sources used.
3. What was the court verdict and penalty? Do you feel that it was appropriate? Why or why not? Support your opinion with research from at least two scholarly sources.
4. In your view, what was the negative impact of the court decision or media coverage on the company's stakeholders?
5. Going forward, what actions should the company's executives and management take to support gender equality and diversity? Provide specific guidelines and support your recommendations with research using at least two scholarly sources in addition to those used in #3 above. You may, in addition, use research from trade organizations, your textbook, and government or non-profit agencies to support your case, but these do not count towards the scholarly source requirement.
6. If the company is a multinational, what adjustments should be made to be in compliance with international gender diversity and antidiscrimination regulations?
