CLASS LOG 4 In order to prove that a standard is indeed a bona fide occupational requirement, the employer must demonstrate: 1. that the employer adopted the standard for a purpose rationally connected to the performance of the job 2. that the employer adopted the particular standard an honest and good faith belief that it was necessary to the fulfilment of that legitimate work-related purpose 3. that the standard is reasonably necessary to the accomplishment of that legitimate work-related purpose. This approach is based on the need to develop standards that accommodate the potential contributions of all employees without imposing undue hardship on the employer. Unless no accommodation is possible without imposing undue hardship, the standard at question may not meet the BFOR threshold. 4) Explain Reasonable accommodations with types and examples? As many have previously stated, disability is not inability. A disabled person can perform work if they are given the proper working conditions to do so. However, this does not often happen in all cases. War veterans with disability have previously found hostile working environments or denied employment by some companies based on their disability. Some of the physical challenges that such disabled veterans face includes the lack of proper care in a working environment such as provision of ramps instead of stairs. Emotionally, they have a challenge of dealing with the many stressful conditions of war that still haunt them. Take for example a veteran who shot a child during the war and the conditions under which he did this are lawful and yet it keeps haunting him.
CLASS LOG 5 Some of the reasonable accommodations that such disabled veterans could request for accommodation include physical modifications to the workplace, written materials in accessible formats, modified equipment or devices, interviews, tests, and training held in accessible locations and extra times to complete tests. The ageing workforce is considered under the ADA. However, ADA recognizes that aging is not a disability by itself. However, they need such accommodations that are related to their activities of daily living and job performance. Blind or deaf workers have a disability and thus require special conditions so as to work effectively. They could be accommodated in situations that do not make much use of their disability. For example, a deaf worker could be employed as a gate man in an industry where the work involved only opening and closing the gate. A blind worker could be employed in administration where the work involves telephony services. 5) What is Harassment, explain its types and examples? Harassment is a form of discrimination. It includes any unwanted physical or verbal behaviour that offends or humiliates you. Generally, harassment is a behaviour that persists over time. Serious one-time incidents can also sometimes be considered harassment. Types of harassment with examples: Sexual harassment Examples include unnecessary touching, jokes of a sexual nature, inappropriate use of suggestive visual display unit material, intimidating behaviour such as asking for sexual favours in return for positive academic assessment or promotion.
CLASS LOG 6 Racial harassment Examples of racially motivated actions and behaviour include inappropriate questioning about racial or ethnic origin, offensive graffiti and intimidating behaviour such as threatening gestures. Personal harassment Examples based on lack of tolerance of personal difference include making fun of personal circumstances or appearance. Bullying Examples of this form of psychological and/or physical harassment include unmerited criticism, isolation, gossip, changes to job duties that are detrimental, responsibilities delegated but without authority, essential information withheld, or behaviour that is intimidating or demeaning. Harassment on grounds of sexual orientation: Examples include homophobic remarks or jokes, threats to disclose sexuality and intimate questions about sexual activity. Harassment of disabled people Examples that undermine the dignity of people with disabilities include discussion of the effects of a disability on an individual's personal life, uninvited touching or staring, and inappropriate questioning about the impact of someone’s disability. Age harassment Examples include derogatory age-related remarks and unjustifiable dismissal of suggestions on the grounds of the age of the person. Stalking

It is divided in 8 important steps: Short-Listing: short list the right candidate for the next stage is the first steps which reduce the number of applications to create a list of the best candidates.

CLASS LOG 10 A situation where recruiting internally rather than externally could be when a team is very productive, high achieving and has metrics that hit their target, or exceed that goal, and a high ranking, crucial team member was to unexpectantly leave the team; by choice or by no choice of their own, due to a health issue, or other factor. This would require the position to be filled rather quickly and efficiently, and promoting internally, from one of the lower-level team members would make the best sense because they already have the knowledge and the learning curve would be low. 7) Job analysis For scientific recruitment, attention needs to be given to the nature of the job for which recruitment is required. Scientific recruitment and selection are possible only when they are made in the light of the details available from job analysis. Clear understanding of the job is called job study or job analysis. It is a process of collecting all relevant information relating to the nature of the job and the qualities and the qualifications required for performing the same efficiently. Job analysis is a systematic study/analysis of a job in order to obtain all important facts about the job. It suggests exactly the details of the job to be performed and the human qualities and qualifications required for performing that job efficiently. The purpose of job analysis is to give all necessary details of the job to the management so as to facilitate scientific recruitment. It forms the basis of and creates a proper background for scientific recruitment and selection. Objectives and Process of Job Analysis 1. Determining the time for job analysis 2. Collection of background data
CLASS LOG 11 3. Selecting representative jobs for analysis 4. Collection of job analysis data 5. Developing a job description 6. Preparing a job specification 8) Describe how job description and specification should be made after analyzing recruitment and selection, training and development, performance evaluation? Job Description: Job Description means describing the details of the job to be performed (job contents). It gives various details or facts about the job to be assigned or performed. The details given in job description are: a. Nature and title of the job. b. Duties required to be performed. c. Location of the job. d. Machines, tools and materials required to be used. e. Type of supervision received and given. f. Relation with the other jobs in the organization. g. Working conditions for the job. h. Hazards connected with the job.

It states the minimum acceptable human qualifications and qualities required for performing a job. Such as: a. Educational and professional qualifications. b. Practical experience required (if any). c. Personality and mental qualities required. d. Physical fitness. e. Interpersonal relations skills required. 9) 360 Degree evaluation of our company (GS4): 360-degree feedback is a method and a tool that provides each employee the opportunity to receive   performance feedback   from his or her supervisor or manager and four to eight peers, reporting staff members, co-workers, and customers. Most 360-degree feedback tools are also responded to by each individual in a self-assessment. In our Company GS4 evaluation criteria are divided into two types: 1. Skills:  the integrated use of knowledge, skills and attitudes in order to accomplish tasks with maximum efficiency. 2. Results:  objective numbers and data that prove that the holder of these skills effectively delivers the results the company needs.

CLASS LOG 13 The idea is to determine which employees are the most efficient and productive for the company and which ones need training or mentoring. The ultimate goal is to develop action plans so that each employee can improve their weaknesses and get the most out of their strengths. The Labor Relations Process: Labour relations incorporate the processes involved in between Management & Union or Employers & Workforce for making effective decisions and channelizing an organisation. With the inclusion of right Labor Relations Strategies, an organisation can manage- Employers, Employees, Administrators, and Supervisors Matters related to the union organisations and employee representations Procedure Consultation together with Contract/Agreement/Policy and administration Grievance Administration, Collective Bargaining, Mediation, Investigation, and Arbitration Labour and Management Meetings and Relations Labour and Management informal conflict resolution Information requests of union Management and administrator training, etc. So, all in all, labor relations play a crucial role in offering balanced advocacy between management and individual employees. In this post, we will dive deep into the importance of labour relations, what its purposes are and what kinds of issues Labour Relation resolves. Gamification Onboarding process : The focus of gamification of the   onboarding process   is to make things interesting and   fun,   while giving a great   first impression   of the company. At the same time, gamification can help to increase the rate at which   new hires   retain information so they can apply it to their new role.   Science has shown   that when information is delivered in a gamification mode, it is easier for human minds to absorb and retain information. Some of this comes from the control that the game player (employee) has and some of it is stems from the way the gaming content format stimulates other parts of the brain. Gamification Onboarding process includes: Decide what onboarding elements can be delivered using a learning management system as opposed to   live   speakers and instructors.
CLASS LOG 14 Work closely with an instructional design team to create these learning modules in a corporate learning management system.   Increase the value of your   gamified   onboarding system with things like knowledge checks, stored templates and handbooks,   training materials, and a directory of managers and support staff .
