Case Assignment

For this Case Assignment you will be focusing on a, b, and c listed above and how they impact the private sector workplace. (Be sure to focus on the private sector, and not the public sector in your answer.) Discuss the following in an integrated essay, backing up your statements with research:

• Provide a half-page summary of each. Include these summaries together in one Appendix at the end of your paper.
• Examine employment at will and its exceptions and explain the exception that has had the greatest impact on the private sector workplace.
• Examine USERRA and detail its positive and negative impacts on the private sector workplace.
• What is the one most important change you see is needed to IRCA? Why? Discuss. (Note: repealing the law is not an option.)

Provide cited reference information (from valid sources) to back up your discussion.

Consider the major HRM functions in your answer.

Use at least 5 Trident Online Library sources, plus any applicable background readings to help strengthen your discussion.

Upload your paper by the module due date. The paper should be at least 5 pages (not counting the cover page, References section, and Appendix).
