Case
Assignment

You
are an HR Manager for a large sheet metal manufacturing company. One of your
largest customers has just secured a major office furniture contract with the
federal government. Your customer wants your company to become a subcontractor
for the project, making all of the plastic parts required. There is uncertainty
among your organization’s top officials about whether or not to become part of
this project, even thought it would be very lucrative. The top officials’
concerns center around the need to prepare an affirmative action plan and to
formulate the goal achievement requirements that would be imposed to correct
underutilization.

Your
paper of 4 to 5 pages (not including title page nor reference page) should
address the following questions:

1 What are the EEO compliance
requirements that impact a federal subcontractor?

2 What are the important components
of an affirmative action plan (expand on the goal-setting process)?

3 How should affirmative action
goals relate to an organization’s strategic human resources plan?

4 What would you recommend to your
organization’s top officials about becoming part of this project?

Use
at least 5 library resources to help support and strengthen your discussion.
Please upload your paper by the module due date.

Recruitment
of Females and Veterans of the U.S. Military

Before
you begin this assignment, be sure to review the Module 2 Background readings.

You
are a newly hired HR staffing specialist for MEGATRANSPORT, a private-sector
employer in the business of manufacturing large transport equipment, primarily
for the U.S. government. Because of shortages in the hiring of several
protected categories that could appear discriminatory, your supervisor has
instructed that you immediately prepare a 2- to 3-page noticeable and
attention-grabbing news release that includes discussion of best practices for
the recruitment of females as well as male and female military veterans.

Make
sure that your news release focuses on the fact that you are targeting
applicants specifically for the large transport equipment industry and likewise
identify (by name) real-life, private-sector employers who have used some of
the recruitment techniques that you propose.

Use
at least 2 Trident Online Library sources plus any applicable background
readings to help strengthen your discussion.
