This business scenario will apply for your staffing plan in both Week 6 and Week 10. Note: You may create and / or make all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of these assignments. Use this Worksheet outline to write your notes or to paste relevant points/facts from your references. Be sure to add the appropriate citation for all of your notes and any copied information. Conduct your research of the main topics (see bold type below) and extract key topics, ideas, facts to support the development of your plan. Place your notes below each section and include the citation with each note. Finally, arrange your notes in a logical, supporting order. When you have completed your research, you can simply use your notes to write out your plan. Whenever you use information from your notes, you will already have the appropriate citation available. Rather than copying and pasting, use the main concepts of your research and then paraphrase those concepts in your own words based on how those principles will apply to your specific business scenario. Using a scenario from Assignment 1, write a six to seven (4-5) page paper in which you: 1) Identify two (2) types of staffing models that could apply to your chosen scenario and determine which model would be best suited for efficiency, productivity, and possible future growth. Examine the significant effect of each identified staffing model on processes that may be occurring within the organization (e.g., outsourcing, contingent workers, consulting firms, etc.). i) Staffing Models (write one or two paragraphs describing staffing model options for your business; research possible staffing models). ii) Model One (describe the first model, which you feel is a viable option for your specific business and explain why this is a possible option. How will this model increase efficiency, productivity, and growth in your business? iii) Model Two (describe the second model, which you feel is a viable option for your specific business and explain why you feel this is the best option.) How will this model increase efficiency, productivity, and growth in your business? 2) Predict the major potential legal issues that you may encounter when establishing equal employment opportunities and diversity within the workplace while still aiming to acquire employees with the needed certifications and credentials. Next, explain the method of achieving transparency within your staffing model. Justify your response. i) Legal Issues (discuss potential legal issues related to EEO and diversity; next, in a new paragraph.) ii) Explain how you will achieve transparency in your staffing plan. 3) Specify three (3) tasks that you need to perform to identify, analyze, and develop job requirements and task statements that you will include in formalized job descriptions. Next, predict the frequency with which you would need to review and adjust these job descriptions as your company progresses. Provide a rationale for your response. i) Job Descriptions: Job Requirements and Task Statements (identify and discuss three tasks you must do to identify, analyze, and develop your job requirements/task statements). ii) Rationale: Make sure you discuss how these apply to your scenario. 4. Describe three (3) methods to deal with high employee turnover and the availability of employees with required knowledge, skills, or abilities. Next, describe the primary manner in which the described succession-planning methods would be beneficial to your company. Justify your response. iii) Describe three (3) methods to deal with high employee turnover iv) Discuss how you will ensure the availability of employees with required knowledge, skills, or abilities. v) How will you manage succession planning to meet unexpected losses in key positions? 5. Use at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources. (one of these can be our text; any listed references must be cited within your plan where information from each reference was used. List each reference you located here in SWS format: References should be written IAW SWS; use the number one (1) for the first source used in your paper (the numbers indicate the order you used them within your paper). Use the same number for a source if it is used multiple times. General rules for references: Author’s first and last name(s). date or n.d.. Title. Publication data if applicable. Retrieval data if electronic – publication data if in hard copy. Ex. 1. Herbert Heneman III, Timothy Judge, & John Kammeyer-Muller. 2019. Staffing Organizations (9th ed.). Middleton, WI: Mendota House/McGraw-Hill. When citing a source, generally list the numerical sequence in which it appears within the paper. This will correspond with the number or sequence in which the source is listed on the Source page. Ex. (1). Remember, if the citation is at the end of the sentence, the punctuation follows the citation. Sources 1. Herbert Heneman III, Timothy Judge, & John Kammeyer-Muller. 2019.

Over the past two (2) years, a research group formed, designed, and built prototypes of small remote surveillance cameras used for security. Recently, your company won a contract to build and provide these remote surveillance cameras to various government agencies. The contract will begin with your company supplying these cameras to agencies within your home state. If all orders are fulfilled sufficiently, the contract will be expanded to supplying agencies outside of your home state. For the immediate future, you will need to secure a larger facility and hire more staff to sustain the first part of the contract. This staff will consist of ten (10) Assembly Technicians, one (1) Certified Quality Control Engineer, one (1) Contract Administrator, and one (1) Office Support Paraprofessional. Meanwhile, there is a contract clause requiring that you provide a staffing plan in order to ensure future product deliveries and sustain the possible future growth. write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you: 1. Identify two (2) types of staffing models that could apply to your chosen scenario and determine which model would be best suited for efficiency, productivity, and possible future growth. Examine the significant effect of each identified staffing model on processes that may be occurring within the organization (e.g., outsourcing, contingent workers, consulting firms, etc.). 2. Predict the major potential legal issues that you may encounter when establishing equal employment opportunities and diversity within the workplace while still aiming to acquire employees with the needed certifications and credentials. Next, explain the method of achieving transparency within your staffing model. Justify your response. 3. Specify three (3) tasks that you need to perform to identify, analyze, and develop job requirements and task statements that you will include in formalized job descriptions. Next, predict the frequency with which you would need to review and adjust these job descriptions as your company progresses. Provide a rationale for your response. 4. Describe three (3) methods to deal with high employee turnover and the availability of employees with required knowledge, skills, or abilities. Next, describe the primary manner in which the described succession-planning methods would be beneficial to your company. Justify your response. 1. 1. Identify (and briefly discuss) two (2) types of staffing models that could apply to your chosen scenario and determine, which model would be best suited for efficiency, productivity, and possible future growth. Examine the significant effect of each identified staffing model on processes that may be occurring within the organization (e.g., outsourcing, contingent workers, consulting firms, etc.). Review Ch. 1 in our textbook to locate the section titled, Staffing Models. The chapter outline preceding the first page of the chapter will help you to locate this section. Review each of these models to determine which two you want to apply to your staffing plan. Take notes about how the specifics of each model should be applied to the scenario you selected. Next, research each staffing model by conducting Internet searches. Apply these principles to your scenario. Remember that your focus in organizing your solution for this part is the model that provides you with the greatest efficiency, productivity, and is best for your business scenario to accommodate future growth. 2. Predict the major potential legal issues that you may encounter when establishing equal employment opportunities and diversity within the workplace, while still aiming to acquire employees with the needed certifications and credentials. Next, explain the method of achieving transparency within your staffing model. Justify your response. This question relates to Chapter 2 of our text, which we will be covering next week. Don’t just discuss random legal issues; instead, focus on EEO and diversity to explain how your staffing model will allow you to avoid problems in these areas. Again, start with Ch. 2 of our text, but then conduct Internet searches for specific topics identified in our text. Your research will be used to justify your comments. Remember, comments without quality references are simply statements of opinion, and in business, this will not suffice. You need to demonstrate that your plan represents accepted staffing principles and your use of quality references is the way this will be accomplished. Requirements 3 & 4 for Assignment 1: 3. Specify three (3) tasks that you need to perform to identify, analyze, and develop job requirements and task statements that you will include in formalized job descriptions. This requirement focuses on how you will develop accurate job descriptions. This requirement is not about tasks or duties workers will perform, but about the tasks you will undertake in HR to ensure you develop accurate job descriptions. How will you ensure your job descriptions are accurate and up-to-date. Next, predict the frequency with which you would need to review and adjust these job descriptions as your company progresses. Provide a rationale for your response. In the second part of this requirement, what general guidance will you include on revising existing job descriptions? How often will they be revised? Are there certain actions which will trigger a revisions or review? Ex. turnover or promotion, etc. Review Ch 3, focusing on the Human Resource Planning section, and Ch. 4, focusing on the Job Requirements Job Analysis section. Consider how these principles should be applied to your specific scenario. Remember, this requirement is not focused on duties of a job but on the types of tasks you must perform to accurately identify the requirements of open positions. In other words, you are discussing at least three tasks you must perform in HR to identify the qualifications most needed for your staffing needs. 4. Describe three (3) methods to deal with high employee turnover and the availability of employees with required knowledge, skills, or abilities. Identify at least three methods you will adopt to help reduce turnover and discuss the expected effect of these methods on retention. Do you expect any labor shortages of applicants with needed skills, etc.? Next, describe the primary manner in which the described succession-planning methods would be beneficial to your company. Justify your response. In the second part of this requirement, briefly discuss succession planning and how you will use this planning process to ensure current employees are prepared and developed to fill vacancies of key positions when vacancies occur. 2. To use the Template, open the document and save it to your computer in MS Word using the following file name: Assign1 James Doe (obviously, substitute your own name for James Doe). 3. Use your notes on your Worksheet you obtained from your research to develop your solution to each of the four requirements, then type your solutions directly into the downloaded Template. You should not try to recreate the Template. The purpose of this Template is to allow you to see a properly formatted SWS paper and to free you to concentrate on the content, rather than spending an excessive amount of time on formatting. 4. Next, insert the current date and your name in the appropriate location on the Title Page. Do not change the header information or the heading used throughout the paper. 5. In SWS, the entire document is written in size 12 font and I want it to be double-spaced. The template is already formatted for this but be careful in using any type of automatic formatting as this may change your tabs, margins, or spacing between lines. The Spacing between lines is the same as that between paragraphs – all doublespaced; all margins are already set at 1”. 6. On the first page of the body of your paper, start with an introductory paragraph, indented 0.5", a normal tab setting. This should already be set on the Template, so all you have to do is to click on the first line and verify it is indented. 7. Prepare an introductory paragraph to introduce the reader to what will follow. This should be limited to one or two paragraphs to introduce the reader to your paper and the organization you have chosen to analyze. Briefly describe what the reader should expect as they proceed through your paper. 8. The main topic of each question has already been included and formatted in SWS as a heading since these are required to be included in your paper for clarity. These are written in bold font to identify them as headings. These do not need to be altered and these reflect the major requirements you will be answering. 9. To enter your solution for each requirement, simply click on the line immediately below the heading. Review the instructions for each question included on the template and develop a draft solution. The body of your paper is written in normal font. The first word of each new paragraph is indented one-half inch (.5") from the left and the entire document is double-spaced (this setting is in the “Paragraph” section of the tool bar 10. Remember to analyze each question in light of the principles of staffing we have been studying thus far and use our text. 11. Do not use your return key at the end of a section or it will add additional spacing (blank lines) between the end of a paragraph and the next heading.
