QUESTION

This Case Study is on the basis of a work scenario. For this situation pretend that you are an HR representative and you are preparing a memo for the VP of HR. The memorandum will analyze a set of facts that occurred in your company as well as conclude with an assessment as to whether your company is liable. This is a role-play assignment as well as your objective is to develop a unique scenario as well as then play the role of the HR representative all the way through your memo, whilst if you were the HR representative and this really happened!

For this memorandum you may develop any scenario you desire as well as the legal issue can be based upon any of the topics that you have revised during this course. Nevertheless the scenario must comprise that the supervisor of the employee(s) in question is advocating for the end of one or more employees. You may or mayn't agree with the supervisor's sentiment and will address this in your memo to your boss. You will break your memorandum into at least five paragraphs (make sure to assess whether termination will lead to any obligation in paragraph four and include in your endorsement paragraph five whether termination is warranted) as follows-

• Paragraph 1- Recognise the issue that you are dealing with, present the problem to your boss. Is it a concern about discriminatory treatment? Are the employees appealing in concerted activity? Is an employee being sexually stressed? You decide

• Paragraph 2- Summary the facts of the case. Express the story. What did the employee(s) prepare that is of worry to you and prompted the drafting of this memo? In your condition, guide your boss that you believe the employee or ex-employee if the person has quit or has been fired is formulating to sue the company

• Paragraph 3- Recognise the decree that is in question is this a potential FMLA, FLSA, ADA, or some other issue? As well as a legal case from the textbook that seems similar to your scenario. Look up the case on the Internet then read about it. Be sure you recognise the significant facts of the case and why (or why not) the court ruled in favour of the employee/employer. Analyze the case in this paragraph of your memo. Explicate its relevance plus how the facts are similar to the facts involving your scenario. You aren't limited to discussing only one relevant case, but don't discuss more than two so that your memo isn't too long

• Paragraph 4- Define whether or not the company has any legal liability or else exposure based upon your comparison of the facts in your situation with the facts and decision of the court case(s) you analysed

• Paragraph 5- Give your boss a recommendation. Whether you deliberate the company might be accountable or not you must have recommendations to your boss relative to how to deal with the situation (defuse it) and how to guard in contradiction of future situations like this arising

Lastly make sure to comprise at the very end a References section. You must have at least three sources/citations for your memorandum. It is probable that one will be the textbook one will be the court case you reference and a third might be a statute, article, a second case or some other relevant case

The memo shouldn't be longer than three-and-a-half double-spaced pages in length, eliminating the references. Including the references, it shouldn't exceed four pages. You will have to be brief in what you say! But if it is shorter than on and a half single-spaced pages in length, excluding the references, you have probable not done a adequate job analyzing the situation
