There are so many different reasons that are arguable for female expatriates and especially in this case, Aline Jacques to be a part of any international assignment. Since Aline Jacque would be someone that is new to the job assigned, having a mentor will definitely help her to develop herself into becoming the right candidate. As stated by Crocitto, Sullivan and Carraher ( 2005) since protégé is considered as employee that have lack of experience, they will definitely benefit from the mentor relationship as it will help them in terms of career advancement, visibility and ability to achieve goals. If Aline Jacques and any other male or female employee are taken as a protégé in HLE, all of them should have the same amount of opportunity to be an expatriate for the job. Therefore, it can be concluded that as long as female have the right skills and capabilities required for the international assignment, they should have the same amount of opportunity as male. …show more content…
It would be logical if Aline Jacque or any other female employee not to be selected if the assignment involves health and safety risk. As an example, since it is recognized that reproductive toxic chemicals may cause injury to the child that women are carrying and exclusion is the only way to protect the fetal health, it will be fine for women to not to be selected for the assignment. Nevertheless, it would be nicer if employer choose to remove the risk instead of excluding or removing the employees (Howard, 1981). In the case of Aline Jacque, being a technical analyst does not involve any of those risk, thus this point out that Robert Plant were being discriminative and there is no viable reason why he should not pick Aline Jacque for this
After reviewing the data it is apparent the promotional rate of women in managerial positions when compared to the men is disproportional to the size of the population. This shows disparate treatment, the company hires women, but women do not promote at the same pace as men. This shows strong evidence of discrimination and if not resolved will lead to a violation of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

The case of Calibuso et al. v. Bank of America Corp. et al. began in 2010, when female financial analysts (FAs) filed charges in in several states and with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) claiming that the Bank of America (BoA) used discriminatory pay practices against them in violation of state laws and the U.S. Equal Pay Act of 1963 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (DiMarco, 2014; Calibuso, 2012). These laws forbid inequalities in pay (Schrimsher & Fretwell, 2012) and discriminating employment practices based on gender and other protected classes (42 U.S.C.A in Webber, 2015). The case was settled in favor of the plaintiffs (DiMarco, 2014). However, legal and scholarly advice suggests that these kinds of cases can be avoided through organizational efforts in training in diversity (Bendick, Egan & Lofhjelm, 2001) and legal understanding along with professional validation of practices, and managerial accountability (Arthur & Doverspike in Malos, 2015). This writer agrees; the case of Calibuso et al. v. Bank of America Corp. et al, which involved discriminatory practices related to compensation and other employment-related acts may have been avoided by observing the advice aimed at organizational efforts in anti-discrimination in the workplace.

She uses an example of a receptionist and a nurse to further the idea, that again, the work of women is made invisible through our ideas about technology and careers relating to it. According to The United States Department of Labor, 92 percent of nurse positions are held by women. This position is now associated with work which is often seen as less dempanding and a undereducated position. The behind the scenes work of measuring, recording, and entering data needs to be very specific and carefully monitored because this work is nowhere near mindless. Jobs that many women hold are very powerful and important contrary to societal beliefs. The same stereotype goes against men as well. About 8 percent of the nurse population is male. Many male students who are planning to follow a medical career often become doctors because of the negative views male nurses have. One cannot only focus on one group of people, women, but need to look at the larger audience of women and

Shipwreck at the Bottom of the World is a fictional book, written by Jennifer Armstrong. It tells the true and extraordinary tale of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition, led by Sir Ernest Shackleton 1914-17. All of the men worked extremely hard to get back home alive, but three men stood out the most. Those three men are: Sir Ernest Shackleton, Frank Worsley, and Tom Crean.

The case study about the solution for adverse impact is about a federal government agency that had to deal with complaints from job applicants regarding its selection procedure. The specialists in the agency did not pay attention to the discrimination of minorities and gender applicants in previous recruitment process. Bob Santos who is a specialist in the staffing division of the agency knew it was time to evaluate the staffing process, after attending a seminar on the Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures. Bob Santos and a team of specialists decided to use the four fifths rule to assess the
Women are one of the most groups being discriminated against today. They try very hard to fit in and be successful in their careers. Discrimination against women is found in many workplaces. Some managers try to fix this problem, but others just ignore it. Companies that pretend that gender discrimination doesn’t exist are usually the ones that get sued for it more often. Other companies try to avoid law suits by dealing with gender discrimination and resolving conflicts before it gets to the law suits.
In this section, there are two different case studies which is Lloyds Bank Group and the Deloitte. These two cases indicated that how the companies have been confronting the gender issues, while carrying the employee selection function and to what extent the female has been successful in ensuring the desired objectivity.
Functions provided by a mentor include both career oriented and psychosocial. Career oriented functions are done to “enhance career advancement” of the protégé (Greenhaus et al 2010). Career functions include sponsorship, increased exposure and visibility, coaching, protection, and challenging but doable assignments. Psychosocial functions are done to “enhance sense of competence and effectiveness” of the protégé (Greenhaus, 2010, p 212). These functions involve being a role model, providing acceptance and confirmation, being a counselor, and providing

The most common forms of selection methods are resumes and applications but testing, interviews, reference checks, honesty tests, medical exam and drug
