Company name : Shake Shack
assignment is to write a 6-8 page (minimum) research paper analyzing the HRM concepts, policies, practices and procedures we learn in this class for an organization of your choice.
This paper will focus on:?
- Chapter 11: Employee Benefits
- Chapter 12: Promoting Safety & Health
- Chapter 13: Employee Rights and Discipline
- Chapter 14: The Dynamics of Labor Relations
- Chapter 15: International Human Resources Management
This paper should examine how your company of choice provides benefits and what benefits they offer. What benefits must be provided by the organization? How do these benefits differ between full and part time employees? Do employees like the benefits they are provided? How does the company try to manage benefit costs?
The paper will also examine the role of health and safety within the organization. What role does HR play in providing health and safety policies to employees. What consequences could result in poor health and safety practices? What are the employee responsibilities when it comes to safety? How does OSHA or other governmental agencies provide oversight for health and safety to the organization? Can you find examples of safety accidents, workplace violence or other incidents of concern? What impact did these incidents or violations have?
The paper will also explore employee rights and how management makes disciplinary decisions. Can you find examples or violations that have resulted in these decisions? Have employees been wrongfully terminated or have other employee rights been violated? What outcome did this have on the employee and/or organization? Is the company (or industry) unionized? How would a union relationship impact how the organization is managed? How has the organization tried to promote or avoid unionization?
Finally discuss if the company operates internationally and how this process is different than in the US. If the company is not an international organization, what laws or differences should they consider if moving into a global market place?
Conclude with your key takeaways or suggestions on improvement.
