Identify, and elaborate upon, four reasons for maintaining accurate and objective employee records.
OverviewOne of the major responsibilities of HR is to, of course, manage human capital. This continues after employee hiring and continues through termination and succession. Having effective policies in place that define these, and other functions in between, is critical to an organizations commitment to ethical, legal, fair, and efficient operating practices. In this assignment, you are asked to share best practices or policies on these topics during a series of brown bag sessions (these are informal lunch time presentations).ScenarioImagine that HR leadership is busy integrating the HR teams from both hospitals and they want to make sure department members are operating in concert with one another on a range of topics. Over the next several weeks, leadership plans to have you conduct threebrown bag sessions (informal lunch-time presentations) that examine the topics of record keeping, ethics and law, and succession planning. They have asked you to write an executive summary of the content planned for each session in advance.Session Descriptions:Session 1: Maintaining Accurate Employee RecordsIn this session, youidentify, and elaborate upon, fourreasons for maintaining accurate and objective employee records.Session 2: Ethical and Legal TerminationIn this session, youexamine the legal and ethical aspects of selecting and terminating an employee out of a group of people with similar performance, behaviors, and jobs as a part of a broad-ranging cost saving initiative. Employee differences:One has a disability.One is paid significantly more than others.One is 60 years of age and older than the others.One is planning on soon taking an extended family leaveSession 3: Succession PlanningIn this session, yourecommend a process to identify and groom an internal candidate to move into a senior-level leadership position in a health care organization such as CEO, COO, and CFO.InstructionsConsider the scenario above and imagine that your audience is a group of departmentmanagers. Writeanexecutive summary that introduces the topics in an introductory paragraph and then describes the content to be delivered in each of the three sessions in detail.Each session description should be twopages in length (sixtotal pages plus cover page).Your work will be measured against the following criteria:Identify, and elaborate upon, fourreasons for maintaining accurate and objective employee records.Analyze the legal implications or requirements of a termination decision.

How can health promotion and wellness programs play a significant role to reduce individual or gang violence?
Global Warming: A Major ConcernAccording to World Health Organization (WHO), global warming is the primary issues for concern. Noise pollution, overcrowding, traffic jams are some factors that have led to this problem. Lack of privacy is another factor in the modern times that is impacting people in ways that havent been examined yet. We also see a wide variance in weather patterns, such as severe hurricanes and drought conditions in the U.S.Source: World Health Organization (WHO). (n.d.).Climate change. Retrieved from http://www.who.int/topics/climate/en/Based on your understanding of the topic, create a report in a Microsoft Word document answering the following questions:Examine one weather condition over the past two years in the U.S. which drastically affected the population. How can the community better prepare their families for such severe conditions?Do you agree with the statement that countries should be held accountable for their contribution to climate change? Why or why not?List some of the issues that might occur as the worlds population increases? Factor in water, food, and hazardous waste into your comments. Suggest ideas to address or avoid these issues.According to the CDC website, violence is attributed for approximately fifty thousand deaths each year and results in over 2.5 million injuries. Homicide and suicide are the second and third leading causes of death, respectively, among US population aged fifteen to thirty four years.Hospital emergency departments treat an average of fifty five people for injuries every minute. The worst after effect of the sudden population explosion across the globe is the rise in violence.How have violent injuries affected a community? What steps have communities taken to decrease overall violent crimes?What steps can the federal or state governments take to help support communities affected from random or consistent violent acts?What can parents do in their homes to help educate children about risks and preventative accidents to help keep them safe? What role should parents take to reduce family violence?How can health promotion and wellness programs play a significant role to reduce individual or gang violence?How can schools and work environments increase safety measures against violent individuals or gangs entering their establishments?What roles should parents, neighbors, friends, health care personnel, and the community take when they observe someone who may exhibit unusual behavior or comments to help prevent potential violence?
