Additional Instructions: Week 6 Assignment Hints
You’re still the HR Leader for your company. What are some types of employee background checks might you consider? You might not consider criminal background checks because of “ban the box”. However, you might need to check driving records, etc.
What federal employment laws govern employee background checks that you need to be mindful about? Pick 2 types of background checks and go into a detailed discussion of each one.
Do some research about them and incorporate your references using APA format. (See the attached sample assignment). Perhaps you recommend social media checks instead of criminal background checks -why?
Make sure you CLEARLY identify 5 types of drug testing procedures and explain how you’d administer each one to avoid any legal problems. Not types of drug tests but types of PROCEDURES an organization must follow to ensure tests are dome legally.
BFOQ – research it -try to find CURRENT BFOQ issues. Is it still relevant in today’s workplace? Where and why? Affirmative action preferences – again consider today’s workplace – not the 1960’s. Where and when might it be relevant in today’s workplace?
Promotions – what legal issues might you have to consider regarding promotions? Identify and discuss 3 actions you’d take to avoid employment law issues with either BFOQ, affirmative action and/or promotion issues.
You could have 3 issues with just promotions or can split up anyway you desire. Identify and discuss the specific employment laws involved (Title VII, ADA, etc.). Be specific. Research – as you conduct your research avoid any research that is more than 5 years old. Focus on today’s environment.
