Conference 2 (WK2-3)   After reviewing each of the laws relevant to staffing, and based on your experiences, determine which law (you can use state or local laws if you choose) will have the most impact on the field of HRM (and specifically the area of staffing) in the next 5–10 years

Conference 2 (WK2-3)

1. After reviewing each of the laws relevant to staffing, and based on your experiences, determine which law (you can use state or local laws if you choose) will have the most impact on the field of HRM (and specifically the area of staffing) in the next 5–10 years. Defend your position using references as needed. (2 pages, plus in-text citation and 2 references)

2. In Unit 2, you learned about a number of legal issues that impact the field of staffing. In this unit, you have seen that one critical tool for maintaining a legal staffing system is the job analysis. Using a job you have had in the past (or one you might like to have in the future), describe why a job analysis should have been done before recruiting for that job and what value that job analysis would add to the employer and candidate alike. Defend your answers by referencing at least one non-textbook resource. (2 pages, plus in-text citation and 2 references)

Conference 3( Wk4)

1. There are many evident trends that impact workforce planning (for example, growth in Hispanic population, aging population, geographic growth in some place and decline in others, and possible changes in government economic policy). Select a trend, and using at least two sources to back your recommendation, describe how you believe this trend will impact an organization's ability to forecast its workforce needs.

2. While the Bureau of Labor Statistics Web site has a vast array of data about almost everywhere in the United States, it can be daunting to try to find specific data because of its size and scope. There are many other sources for similar information regarding demographics and employment. Two national sources include United States Census Bureau and City-Data. There are many others sites available on a local, state, or regional basis (chambers of commerce, state governments, et cetera). Which site would you use to locate demographic and employment data on a location in the state in which you live? State your source, explain why you selected this site, and provide a sample of the demographic data from this site. Briefly describe how user friendly this site was.
