Module 4 – Case TOTAL REWARDS; EMPLOYEE & LABOR RELATIONS; GLOBAL HR Assignment Overview Read The King Company Background and Total Rewards to review information on the Company. Case Assignment Address the following in a wellintegrated case assignment: Companies often have several policies on time away from work. What are some examples of time away from work policies found in private-sector organizations today? Provide employer names from your research. Click on the video below to learn about “unlimited vacation” jobs where employees could go to work whenever they feel like it. (CBS This Morning 2015) As you see in the CBS video above some employers have work v. vacation policies. Others have one Employee Time-Off Policy. Would it be better for the King Company to have one “time off” policy (e.g. allowing a set number of days missed regardless of reason) instead of individual absenteeism sick-days vacation short-term leave long-term leave policies FMLA and other policies granting time away from work? Or should they implement something similar to the unlimited vacation time policy discussed above or something else? Why? Support your response with research. Bring in information from at least four Trident Online Library sources to help strengthen and validate your discussion. Paper length: 4-5 pages (not counting the cover and reference pages). Provide private-sector employer examples of HRM programs systems processes and/or procedures as you address the assignment requirements. Provide names of the employers. Use different employer examples in this course than what have been used previously in your other papers and courses. Bring in related court case decisions to help augment your discussion if applicable. Make reasonable cost-effective assumptions in your paper. It is not an option however for you to hire additional help (temporary or otherwise). State your assumptions in the beginning of your discussion.
