Policies provide standardization and structure to employees.

Policies provide standardization and structure to employees.  The employee handbook is a venue for communicating expectations and can be a resource for employees as they have questions.  In In this assignment, you will present why 4 policies (attached in annotated bibliography) should be included within the employee handbook.   This assignment allows you to apply some of your HR knowledge to a fictional small company of 15-25 employees.

In a research paper, provide researched rationale for the nature and substance of your 4 selected,  distinct policies (workplace benefits. workplace dating, dress code policies, and policies on harassment - can be found in the attached annotated bibliography).  This paper is to be reflective of an academic research paper. The research paper must address the reasoning and/or rationale for the inclusion of the selected policy elements in a policy manual.  The selected policies must correctly address employment legislation pertinent to the stated size of the company (15–25 employees). In elaborating on the rationale, you may want to consider the following questions: Why should these elements be in a policy manual? What laws or principles mandate an organization follow these guidelines? What cases have established precedent for this issue to be addressed clearly in an organization’s employee policy manual?

Support your rationale with (at minimum) 15 reputable (annotated bibliography attached), sources are in addition to the required use of the textbook (attached) and the Bible.  The paper must be at least 2000 words, in addition to the cover page, the abstract, and the references page. It must be written in current APA format. Papers submitted with less than the minimum word count will not receive full credit in this area of the grading rubric (attached).  

Some of these are more procedural and more for one person in a role at the company or for supervisors.   The Code of Conduct is easily confused with the more common Code of Conduct in publicly traded organizations. Keep the company size in mind as you research.  Stay in the US when it comes to laws and try to keep out of specific industries and areas that are not a match.  For example, an article on school dress code is not a good match to researching a dress code at the workplace.  An article on Transyvanian ceramic engineers who experience harassment is going to not have good carryover to a small US coffee shop and the definition of harassment will be not the same as the one in the US.   

This paper is a rationale for the policies and the company is not important other than to keep the small size in mind.   You can write the paper in general terms (policies for a small company, etc.) or adopt a fictional company (ex. ABC Coffee Shop).   Do note this is not a research paper and you are not looking at specific companies and what they have.   This is also not the policies themselves and the tone will not be addressing employees but rather a formal paper about the importance of the policies you pick.   Spend your time and effort on areas that advance the paper and align with the assignment instructions and rubric.

Are there modifiable factors, such as health behaviors that lend themselves to better prevention efforts?

Imagine you are a member of a newly developed diversity team in your workplace Reflection

 Imagine you are a member of a newly developed diversity team in your workplace. Your team is considering how individual identity contributes to cultural diversity. Your team leader has asked each member to take time to reflect on the personal identity and the aspects of cultural diversity you represent and how understanding your own traits affect your perspective of cultural diversity. Keep in mind that identity is more than what people “see” when they look at you. Write a 525- to 700-word reflection, completing the following: Using what you learned in the reading assignments for Weeks 1 and 2, describe what cultural diversity means to you.

(CLINICIANS-END USERS; PATIENTS AND VENDORS)

Before any health information system can be successfully implemented, there must be a team of experts who understand the vision and mission of both the health care organization and its stakeholders. Strategic health care leaders are positioned to propose system upgrades and/or implementations that can withstand inevitable organizational changes. Health information systems’ leaders understand that data is the overall management of the availability, usability, integrity and security of the data. Choose at least three health information systems’ leaders and/or stakeholders, and define their role in the implementation of health information systems (CLINICIANS-END USERS; PATIENTS AND VENDORS). All the following items must be addressed in your paper: • Compare and contrast the limitations and opportunities in enterprise-wide data. Defend your technology infrastructure’s ability to support organizational leadership and end-user needs. • Explain the economic impact of your proposed system acqu...
