05 Feb Human Resource Management-Hospital Employee Handbook

Order Instructions

For this assignment, you will need to write 2000 to 2500-word essay in which you analyze Human Resource Management (HRM) issues and make recommendations for the employee handbook of a hospital. First, you should perform research on the Internet and select an actual hospital that has its employee handbook published online. Once you’ve selected the hospital, assume that you work for the organization you’ve selected, and that you’ve been given the task of researching ways to improve the employee handbook and reduce HRM risks.

Once you’ve selected the hospital and its employee handbook to use for this project, you will need to do the following:

Identify and explain specific HRM risks that the hospital faces with respect to (a) recruitment and hiring, (b) terms and conditions of employment, (c) compensation and benefits, (d) employee performance and evaluation, and (e) employee discipline and termination.

Identify areas in the employee handbook that can be revised or supplemented to mitigate these HRM risks.

Propose language for five specific revisions to be made to the employee handbook.

When writing your essay be sure to include:

An introduction that identifies the hospital that you’ve chosen, describes the community that it serves, and provides an overview of its employees.

Why HRM risks and the recommendations you are making are important.

Differentiation between peer reviewed research and any other sources of information utilized.

Analysis of specific risks within each of the five topic areas.

A reference page in APA format and APA formatted citations throughout the essay.

Formatting & Sources

Please write your paper in the APA format. As part of your research, you may refer to the course material for supporting evidence, but you must also use at least five credible, outside sources and cite them using APA format as well. Please include a mix of both primary and secondary sources, with at least one source from a scholarly peer-reviewed journal. If you use any Study.com lessons as sources, please also cite them in APA (including the lesson title and instructor’s name).

Primary sources are first-hand accounts such as interviews, advertisements, speeches, company documents, statements, and press releases published by the company in question.

Secondary sources come from peer-reviewed scholarly journals, such as the Journal of Management. You may use like JSTOR, Google Scholar, and Social Science Research Network to find articles from these journals. Secondary sources may also come from reputable websites with .gov, .edu, or .org in the domain. (Wikipedia is not a reputable source, though the sources listed in Wikipedia articles may be acceptable.)
