Module 01 Content Question As the Human Resource Consultant, the CEO is looking to you to creatively solve a complicated problem with employment and labor law by determining the best method(s) based on the current situation and being legally compliant. After all, there are so many laws to consider. You are tasked with answering the following questions about being compliant: As a small business, they are required to offer FMLA? In the past employees have requested FMLA but were denied, citing that the business was a small business. What's the impact? In the warehouse, employees do not wear the company-issued back belts and safety glasses, which has been allowed based on the fact that it is the employees that have been refusing to wear the items. Are they legally allowed to refuse? Is the company legally required to offer health insurance (and how much), can employees work more than 60 hours per week (paid), and does the company have to offer accommodations for employees with disabilities? For this project assignment, you will need to conduct research. Visit the Rasmussen online Library and search for a minimum of four articles covering the topics of FMLA and workplace safety. Conduct academic research using the library's databases, like: Discovery ASP: Human Resource Management Online Business Source Complete via EBSCO Business via ProQuest In the databases use basic search languages (controlled vocabulary/keywords) to determine employment and labor laws specific to this situation.

Using your research, address the following points in your paper. Was the company legally compliant with FMLA? Explain and support with law. How can leadership make decisions that are objective and reflect the ethical treatment of others? Demonstrate how leadership can comply with laws and rules governing FMLA to employees in an ethical and professional manner. Explain who's at risk for legal compliance when workplace safety is not mandated or monitored? What are the ethical and professional implications? Evaluate the impact of laws on the core beliefs or personal ethics from a perspective of the employees. What is the potential impact of ethical issues on the stakeholders of the company? Your paper should be a minimum of 3 pages in length. Include an APA formatted title page and reference page. Remember to integrate citations accurately and appropriately for all resource types; use attribution (credit) as a method to avoid plagiarism.
