Legal and Regulatory Issues in Human Resources Management by Ronald R. Sims,William I. Sauser Pdf

This edited book is intended to address the need for an updated look at the HRM legal and regulatory environment. Contrary to existing books which address legal issues in HRM from a narrower focus or specific issue (like sexual harassment, performance appraisal or employment termination), this book provides a comprehensive and in-depth look at legal issues, regulations and laws which govern all aspects of human resource management—recruitment, selection, placement, performance management (i.e., employee training and development), benefits and compensation—and specific issues such as job analysis, sexual harassment, and the like. The contributors to this book offer their insight derived from their own research and practical experience with the HRM legal and regulatory environment/world of work. More specifically, the contributors examine, analyze and discuss challenges, issues and opportunities related to HRM legal and regulatory issues and the implications for employees and their organizations while emphasizing the importance of navigating such laws and regulations to the employment cycle and toward sustainable competitive advantage in today’s and tomorrow’s organizations.

Human Resources Management and Ethics by Ronald R. Sims,Sheri K. Bias Pdf

Human Resources Management and Ethics: Responsibilities, Actions, Issues, and Experiences, explores and provides an in-depth look at the responsibilities, actions, issues and experiences related to HRM and ethics for individual employees, organizations and the broader society. Like other departments in the broader organization HRM professionals will need to increasingly demonstrate how they contribute to an organization’s ethical orientation and overall performance or success. While the ethical challenges, trends, and issues impacting employees, organizations and HRM professionals will continue to change over the years (consider the recent ethical challenges related cybersecurity and data breaches) the bottom-line of organization success is the clear reality that doing the right thing or institutionalizing an ethical culture or character is just as important to various stakeholders. The chapters in this book provide an updated, current and future look at the relationship between HRM and ethics and across various sectors or organizations (i.e. public, private, not-for-profit, academic, etc.). That is, this book discusses the ever evolving role of HRM professionals to include discussion of how the profession continues to take on more responsibility for developing and institutionalizing an ethical culture in their organizations, industries and the broader society. The book also contributes to the need for ongoing dialogue, discussion or insights offered by HRM experts on what HRM professionals and their organizations can do in the face of ethical expectations, challenges and scandals. In the end, the book is intended to increase our understanding of the ethical responsibilities, actions, issues and experiences that arise both within HRM and in HRM’s interactions with individuals and organizations.

Managing Human Resources with A Legal Framework by Dr. Komal,Dr. Shweta Tiwari Pdf

Law applies to almost every aspect of an organization's work, so it's imperative for organizations to become knowledgeable about the law to handle situations that may lead to serious legal ramifications. Human resources laws are governed by legislation framed by the central government and each state accordingly. Therefore, the company's objectives and strategy must align with the employment laws. The human resources policies that organizations adopt affect the entire organization, and they must comply with legal requirements to protect employees and employers. It is crucial that companies comply with a variety of laws/ policies, as non-compliance can also result in stiff penalties and sometimes disciplinary actions. Legal-minded human resources departments can eliminate lawsuits, financial losses, and reputational damage, and add credibility to the decisions made by the department. To ensure that an organization and its employees follow the laws, human resources professionals should have a sound understanding of the available and applicable laws before creating their human resources policies for the organization. This edited book focuses on providing a refreshed perspective on HRM legal and regulatory issues with their strategic application to firms and organizations operating in an everchanging global environment. Unlike existing HRM books which focus on employment laws, this book provides a comprehensive and detailed analysis of contemporary legal issues in organizations. By providing you with a variety of concepts and approaches, this book will help you to understand human resources management, as well as provide you with additional legal knowledge that will be of interest to employers at the local, national, and international levels. In conclusion, this work sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of the angle between Human resources and Industrial and Labour Laws. It invites readers to delve into the complexities, debates, and transformative potential of this field, and to actively contribute to the ongoing quest for a more just and peaceful employment environment.

The Legal Context of Staffing by Jean Phillips,Stanley Morris Gully Pdf

The Legal Context of Staffing discusses the reasons employment laws and regulations exist and the benefits and obligations of complying with them. The purpose of this book is to provide an overview of some of the key laws and legal issues surrounding staffing -- including recruitment and hiring -- and to identify resources for additional information. It also offers readers a better understanding of how to prevent discriminatory or illegal staffing practices. The book covers the primary laws and regulations regarding staffing, different enforcement agencies, and different types of staffing-related lawsuits. As the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit wrote, "Leaving managers with hiring authority in ignorance of the basic features of the discrimination laws is an 'extraordinary mistake' for a company to make."

Human Resource Management and Change by Lanny Entrekin,Brenda D. Scott-Ladd Pdf

This exciting new book has grown from a need to provide practical advice to managers who deal with contemporary human resource and change issues. A crucial role of a manager is to respond in the best interests of the organisation and at the same time retain talent. Skill shortages and ageing populations in developed economies and the need for emerging economies to develop their workforce coincide to present managers with unique challenges. Human Resource Management and Change: A practising managers guide offers a timely overview of recent environmental and economic changes as depicted by the DELTA forces of change. These include demographic, environmental, legal, technical and attitudinal changes that are in part the product of globalization, and the Global Financial Crisis (GFC). The fundamental strategies for managing change and implementing human resource practices are clearly explained. End of chapter study guides further explain the topics of the chapters by providing case studies and review and discussion questions as well as further reading. The text reflects the everyday challenge managers face in a turbulent environment and focuses on providing practical guidelines to managers who may not have higher academic qualifications to help them manage people and change.
