Explain the actions that employers must take to verify legal employment in the United States.
In this assignment you evaluate and assess workplace protection legislation, identify the law pursuant to the employment-at-will (EAW) doctrine and legal exceptions and apply this understanding to a business scenario, and explain legal requirements for hiring new employees and your own home state laws as to workers’ compensation and immigration.
Instructions
Respond to the following in 4–6-pages:
Cite two federal laws that you believe are the most important for protecting employees from workplace discrimination. Provide a compelling argument for the effectiveness of the legislation in protecting employees and two case law examples to support your assessment.
Explain the actions that employers must take to verify legal employment in the United States.
Some states do not allow undocumented workers, or those not legally allowed to work in the United States, to receive workers’ compensation benefits. Provide the law in your home state and a compelling and supported (with research) argument advocating for or against your state’s practice of allowing or denying workers’ compensation benefits to undocumented or illegal workers.
Provide a comprehensive summary of the employment-at-will (EAW) doctrine that includes all possible legal exceptions designed to fight wrongful termination.
Cite and support (with research) an appropriate EAW exception that the employee in each of the following scenarios could reasonably argue to save their job.
Scenario 1: JoAnn, a manager, started a blog on the company website for employee grievances and problems. She noticed that a worker was protesting that allegedly no Asian American employees had gotten a raise in two years at the company. Christine, the employee, also criticized how much CEO Elon had made last year and how he was “out of touch” with the realities of his employees. JoAnn reminded Christine that she was an employee-at-will. The next day, Christine talked to her fellow co-workers about forming a union. JoAnn fired Christine and Christine is suing for wrongful termination.
Scenario 2: Steven, a department supervisor, fired his secretary, Ann. Ann, devout Christian, had been putting Right-to-Life flyers in the employee breakroom. Steven talked to Ann twice and reiterated her actions were not appropriate. Ann continued to leave the pamphlets and was also taking time away from work to pray at her desk during the busiest times of the morning. Ann is suing for wrongful termination.

Indicate how any company could apply the concepts around STP, making generic recommendations for best practice.
The Assessment Task
This assessment has been designed to allow students the opportunity to explore the underlying
importance and application of marketing strategy and implementation concepts to produce
recommendations for selected organisations.
“…positioning and segmentation are distinct parts of the strategy process and provide us with some
extremely powerful tools; but ultimately they are linked by the central issue of focusing on satisfying
customer’s needs in ways that are superior to competitors” (Hooley et al, 2017 p159)*.
*Hooley et al (2017) Marketing Strategy & Competitive Positioning. 6 th ed. Harlow Pearson.

Targeting & Positioning (STP) including a consideration of implementation issues. With supporting evidence, use appropriate examples from different industries (plural) to
exemplify how different organisations (plural) have applied STP, to demonstrate your learning
and application of this topic.
Indicate how any company could apply the concepts around STP, making generic
recommendations for best practice.
You are required to produce a report that should have:
• a sound theoretical and conceptual perspective, containing evidence of critical debate
with reference to appropriate academic literature (at least 10 academic journal articles)
30% of the marks
• sound examination of STP and its application in industry, with evidence, showing
effective practical understanding 40% of the marks
• generic management recommendations 10% of the marks
• quality academic sources 10% of the marks
• Harvard referencing, report structure and presentation 10% of the marks

What terms or concepts come to mind when you think about finance?
If you have a strong understanding of financial principles and reports, you’ll have a better chance at success. This is true whether you’re pursuing a career in finance or not. Financial management requires much more than analyzing accounting records. It’s important to note how financial data and calculations are used to support an organization’s work, finances, and decision making.
In this discussion, you’ll introduce yourself to the class and reflect on finance, your experience, and this course.
Create one initial post and follow up with at least two response posts.
For your initial post, address the following:
- Please tell the class about yourself and your educational or professional background.
- Have you ever used financial documents (such as tax returns and financial statements) to make a personal or business decision? Explain.
- What terms or concepts come to mind when you think about finance?
- What concerns or excites you about the course?

At the extreme end, the new systems did not work in any meaningful way or the cost overruns were 100% or more. The article below discusses 16 of the famous cases of ERP implementation failure:
What are some of the factors in ERP implementation failure?
