HIRING PRACTICES AND LEGAL COMPLIANCE

Another important aspect to finding the best person to hire
is pre-hire assessments. Read the following:

Now imagine you are an HR Professional for a large warehouse
company. You have been asked to prepare a 2- to 3-page memo for your company’s
hiring managers, explaining to them the employment law issues to consider in
preparing pre-employment physical tests or assessments. Many of the warehouse
jobs require physical skills of varying kinds, so pre-hiring physical tests are
appropriate.

In your memo, you should address the key legal concepts
hiring managers should keep in mind when working with medical consultants to
design pre-employment physical tests. Be sure to discuss disparate treatment,
disparate impact and how the EEOC might assess the test, among any other
relevant issues. You should do your own additional research to make sure you
are confident about the contents of your memo.

Turn in this memo by the module due date. Paper length: 2-3
pages, not counting the cover and reference pages.
