Human Resource Paper

For this week’s Weekly Assignment you are asked to draft an outline and create a reference list due Monday April 6 at 10 pm. Create an outline of your paper with main topics and sub topics clearly organized. You must list at least 6 sources in APA format as well in this submission (See the Outline worksheet posted on iLearn for more information)

a. 1 source should be the class textbook b. 1 source should be the popular press article you found c. 4 sources should be from scholarly sources or academic journals (see the list of scholarly

sources for some options of where to look for articles)

Make sure your outline addresses all the required parts of the paper including:

a. An introduction and conclusion b. A clear description of the issue or topic. Explain why the topic is a something worth

investigating (you can reference your popular press article here). Present a review of the issue/topic and inform the reader of how it came to be. Describe how the issue/topic matters. Why is it an issue or concern?

c. Compare and contrast the issue using specific information or details (with appropriate sources) from both the manager side and the employee side of the issue. Why would this issue/concern matter to a business? To an employee? What impact would this issue have on the business or on the employee?

d. How should companies manage or act regarding this issue/topic? Use sources throughout this section to justify your thoughts. This section needs to be VERY detailed and thoroughly discussed.

REMEMBER – this paper is supposed to allow you to demonstrate that you can use HUMAN RESOURCES strategies to solve issues in the real workplace. Think about your issue and how it relates to the material we have covered to this point (or the material that is in the textbook) and think through HUMAN RESOURCE solutions that can help.

You can see a sample outline on the next page.
