For this assignment, you will write an essay that addresses the following:
Imagine that you work for a local chamber of commerce as a research assistant. Your supervisor is concerned about the gendered wage gap your organization is not closing, and the added dimension of race appears to further impact these gaps. You have been charged with conducting research and possible solutions to the issue and your supervisor has asked you to analyze data on educational achievement, income, health statistics, family dynamics, and economic security. A good place to start finding data regarding this issue is the Stanford Center on Poverty and Inequality (Links to an external site.) website. In addition, you have been asked to review data related to the wage gap that can often be attributed to higher paid positions (like CEOs) being occupied by more men than women or more whites than people of color.
Instructions:
Write a 3-4-page report for your imagined supervisor —or about 1500 words—not including the title and reference pages, which are required.
Your paper must be properly cited and formatted according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA (Links to an external site.).
Include a formal References page.
You must support your analysis with at least three scholarly references and can include resources from this course. Sources such as Wikipedia, USA Today, Fox News, or MSNBC news will not be accepted. The CSU-Global Library (Links to an external site.) is a good place to find acceptable sources as well as the Stanford Center on Poverty and Inequality (Links to an external site.).
Turn the paper in via the Module 2 Critical Thinking folder and select the Submit Assignment button.
Institutional Challenges to Equality in The Workplace
Race, class, and gender still create many institutional challenges to equality in the workplace. As a senior manager, it is your responsibility to address these inequalities in the workplace. For this assignment, you will draft a memo to the CEO of your company, or a company with which you are familiar, that discusses the following:
Describe an issue involving race, gender, age or class in the workplace.
Identify a regulation or standard of conduct that is being violated and fully describe the violation.
Provide three solutions to resolve this issue.
Your paper should meet the following requirements:
2-3 pages in length, not including cover and reference pages.
Formatted according to the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA (Links to an external site.).
Cite a minimum of two academic peer-reviewed scholarly sources to support your responses in addition to course material and reading resources. The CSU-Global Library is a great place to find these scholarly sources.
You are expected to convey complex ideas in a clear, concise, and organized fashion, using the required and recommended readings from the course for analytical support.
