Management Of The Interview And Hiring Function
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing the increasing necessity for absolute honesty in the hiring process as a safeguard against later truth-in-hiring lawsuits. There are lists of guidelines and specific questions allowable for interviewers to ask available from several management and human resources professional organizations, and it is unconscionable in today's business climate that any organization of size operates outside those guidelines in its efforts to attract the best people possible. But it is also more common for candidates to also interview the company in order for them to be assured they are making the best choices for themselves and for their families, and those interviewers now must take as much care in their responses as interviewees have had to maintain for generations. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Management's Influence On Human Resources / Entrepreneurship and Creativity
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page research paper on the effects that a business' Human Resource policies can have on the spirit of creativity and entrepreneurship within the company. Two examples given are Southwest Airlines and Lotus Development Corporation.

Lotus, at least in times past, just wanted happy employees. The fortunes of the two companies reflect what superficially seems to be a minor divergence of attitude. That single point, though, has made a world of difference. Bibliography lists 5 sources. HR-Role.wps

Management's View of the UPS Pilots' Contract Demands
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper. The Independent Pilots Association (IPA) representing UPS' 2039 pilots allowed a by-mail survey of their members last August (1997) following the end of the Teamsters' strike against the company in the same month. Though UPS offered pay raises for their pilots of between 36 and 94%, the pilots nonetheless rejected UPS' contract proposal. The average pilot pay at UPS currently stands at $151,000. Pilots are restricted by law from working a full schedule—they are all essentially part-time employees, and their current hourly rate (without a contract renegotiation) stands at more than $200.

Management, Labor, Unions, & The 1997 UPS Strike
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper examining the relationship between unions and management, using the now-current UPS (United Parcel Service) strike as a paper-long example. The UAW and GM's Saturn Division had enjoyed a symbiotic relationship for years, with each side working for the long-term benefit of the company while protecting workers' rights, as well as their responsibilities. UAW members realize that there are thousands of workers overseas more than willing to eliminate auto maker positions here, and that it is in their best interest to work for increased productivity and efficiency. The Teamsters retain the old-school attitudes of the "evil corporation," glossing over all the benefits that UPS provides its employees. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
