Determining the Proper Job ClassificationIntroductionAssume you are an HR Consultant that has been hired to help Comfort Assisted Living with a recent grievance that was filed by one of its employees. You will not be working on the legal aspects of the case, but you will help the company determine if the employees job classification is correct. Comfort Assisted Living has an HR Department but would like to obtain an outside opinion.The employee, Gregory Williams, is currently working as a Senior HR Specialist for Comfort Assisted Living. His current job duties are provided in the Supplemental Information document posted in our classroom. Mr. Williams has been in the position for 5 years and had consistently received outstanding ratings on his performance evaluations until this year when he received a meets expectations rating. A month ago, he saw a job announcement that Comfort Assisted Living placed on Monster.com for a Deputy VP of HR. Mr. Williams was angered by the job announcement because he felt he was already performing the duties stated in the announcement. When he asked his supervisor about the job, he was told that the Deputy position was a new one that was being created and that he would have to apply for the job just like everyone else. Mr. Williams disagreed and felt his current position should be reclassified to that of a Deputy VP of HR. He has filed a grievance with Comfort Assisted Living and you have been hired to determine if Mr. Williams current job is equivalent to the new Deputy position. You have been told upfront that it has been years since the company conducted a job analysis for its HR positions so you might have to begin there before making your determination. Also, you have heard from employees that work with Mr. Williams that he has been slacking on the job lately. According to them, he routinely comes in late, takes extra long lunches, and does not submit all of his work on time. At least one of his coworkers said Mr. Williams was having health issues and that he might have to undergo chemotherapy. Another coworker said the health issues werent with Mr. Williams, they were with his young daughter, who has a mysterious illness that doctors are having difficulty diagnosing. Youve checked his leave records and nothing is on file regarding an FMLA request and there is no documentation regarding possible medical issues.In completing this assignment, you will showcase that you can conduct a job analysis and use the results to develop a job description, which will help address organizational needs/concerns. You will also demonstrate that you have an understanding of the ethical issues involved with job analyses, job evaluation, and job design. Additionally, you will show that you understand the HR context and have mastery of the fundamental student competencies identified by UMUCs Graduate School including: communication and critical thinking.Steps to CompletionResources:* O*Net http://www.onetonline.org* UMUCs Online Library Databases* Course material* YouTube videos on job analysis such as, but not limited to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMThqle0mqYDeliverablesThere are two (2) separate deliverables for this assignment.Files:Written Assignment Rubric.docSupplemental Information for Week 6 Assignment.docxStart DateFeb 28, 2018 12:00 AMDue DateMar 11, 2018 11:59 PMHide RubricsCriteriaABCF0Quality50 pointsStudent directly addresses main question or issue, and adds new insight to the subject not provided in lectures, readings, or class discussions.
