Jessica, I disagree with you regarding Shania working with family. Once the roles are clearly identified, it shouldn’t be a problem for Kelsey and Shania to work together. Some families can work together in business relationships. They are sisters, however, once they begin working together, they will enter into an employer-employee relationship. According to Kubasek, Brennan, and Browne, it is one in which the employee is subject to control of the employer (Kubasek, Brennan, & Browne, 2009, pp. 396-397). Kelsey will enter into a contractual relationship with Shania and Shania will have authority over her as an employer. Kelsey is married to an unbeliever who doesn’t approve of his wife working. He wants her to continue to be a stay-at-home mom for their 13 and 15 year old children. Kelsey’s husband should love her enough to compromise with her work schedule. Since, her boss would be her own sister, there shouldn’t be a problem getting a work-life balance schedule. Ephesians 5:25 -26 says “For …show more content…
She wants to promote someone of racial or ethnic minority. However, it is illegal and unethical to promote based on race or ethical background. According to Malcom Sargeant, the principle of equal treatment means that there shall be no direct or indirect discrimination on the grounds of race or ethnic origin (Sargeant, 2013). A promotion should be based on performance, not race, age, sex, or ethnicity. Shania should evaluate each employee and promote the person which meets or succeeds her expectations as a supervisor. The Civil Rights Act of 1866 and 1871 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race and ethnicity (Kubasek, Brennan, & Browne, 2009, p. 550). Unequal treatment of employees based on race, age, religion, sex, or age is illegal and if Shania promotes a staff member by discriminating, she could face a lawsuit and risk jeopardizing her
The administrative structure for the program I am interning for in treatment foster care. The program is structure is that of a traditional hierarchical pyramid.

Charles Mitchell (2013) went on to say, “by not promoting the more successful White employees, was this an act of illegal disparate treatment under Title VII (p. 43)? The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that it was illegal disparate treatment. Assisting the U.S. Supreme Court in their ruling is the established Uniform Guidelines on Employment Selection Procedures (UGESP). The guidelines state, when an employer determines that adverse impact was evident in its testing process, they shall (1) valid the procedures (test), (2) confirm the linkage to its job, (3) consider alternative testing procedures (Mitchell, p. 45).
It is not an ideal situation for either party involved. I understand the family values and if her story becomes public knowledge it was impact the image of the organization due to the nature of whom she decided to stay in a relationship with. On the other hand, is this fair to the employee? Her decisions did not affect the quality of work, she continued to give excellence while she going through the situation. Can employers determine who one will be in a relationship with?
The general argument made by author Nathan Place and Erin Durkin in their work, “Because you’re black’: Queens Bakery fined in discrimination case”, is that people continue to discriminate against colored people. More specifically, they argue that the Meimetea’s are racist and discriminate people based on their race and won’t hire them to work for them due to that. Patty Meimetea wouldn’t hire Jamilah DaCosta because she was black and claimed that the only thing she will bring is problem. The article starts, “She was telling me all this negative stuff – she couldn’t hire me because I was black, and I would scare away her customers.”
When the Civil Rights Act was written in 1964, its impact was widespread to say the least. Although it covered protection from discrimination based on religion and race, it did not cover the prevention of discrimination within federally funded programs. This is where Bernice Sandler steps in. Sandler, a well-qualified candidate for this position, was seeking employment as a faculty member at the University of Maryland. She was denied the position because she came across as “too strong for a woman” (Sandler). Sandler complained to the Department of Labor’s Office for Federal Fair Contracts Compliance and offered university statistics that female employment at the university had decreased because males had replaced more qualified female
With the many cases that transpired over the years Black women have been discriminated against time after time. One for example “DeGraffenreid v General Motors”, per text states that “five black women brought suit against General Motors, alleging that the employer’s seniority system perpetuated the effects of
I also recommend that the employer take corrective and/or preventive actions to identify the source of the discrimination and minimize the chance of its recurrence, as well as they should discontinue the specific discriminatory actions involved in the
Discrimination is nearly universally accepted as unethical, whether done on a conscious or unconscious level. By prejudging a person’s ability to perform a given task based on incorrect or irrelevant information. In my opinion, conducting criminal background check is unethical. Despite the fact that at first glance this practice is useful and beneficial for the society, these checks have far-reaching negative consequences.
The show “The Office” is a sitcom about the daily lives of people that work in a fictional paper company. Throughout the show the characters often face ethical dilemmas like dating other co-workers because it creates awkward situations. For example, the boss of the company, Michael Scott, fell in love with a fellow co-worker, Holly Flax. The have an amazing connection, but due to the ethics of the company, Michael’s boss had to transfer Holly away to another district. They ended up having to break up because they couldn’t handle the long distance relationship.

Winter was just around the corner. It was my first time in the biggest coffee shop in town. I could see the cheerful and brilliant lighting of the shop as I walked across the vast parking lot. There were tables outside the shop each with a brown vintage style umbrella. This particular coffee shop is not a cafe, it’s a coffee shop literally.
