Policies in Management Diversity at Denny’s

An organization that I admire and would like to work for in the future is Chase Bank. The most admirable quality of this financial institution has to be its leadership during the financial crises of 2008. Through great task delegation and resource management, this company was able to circumvent detrimental events which could have led to bankruptcy. Since, I am interested in working for a financial institution such as Chase Bank and I am following the educational steps that reflect this desire, it would only be appropriate that in the future a joining of interests from Chase Bank and myself would take place. With further education in finance, I see myself developing a strong foundation of knowledge

In this chapter the ROC-NY continues to grow and expand as an organization due to its recognition for its advocacy of immigrant restaurant workers. Mamdouh and Saru plan to broaden ROC-NY to all restaurant workers. Saru proposes to expand to a national level and with Mamdouh’s agreement they organize a national convention. Mamdouh and Saru’s efforts did not go unnoticed as they worked in establishing the Responsible Restaurant Act. This act allowed the Department of Health to withhold license renewals of establishments with a history of labor violations. Additionally, restaurants were now required to disclose their employment violations upon renewal; the city could hold public hearings to inquire about restaurant violations; and the

The policy will entail the laws around discrimination. It will also explain discrimination and types of discrimination. The policy will also detail the difference between fair and unfair discrimination. Organizational policies and practices foster a climate of inclusion where employees and leaders follow the same principles and practices. It may be argued though that in most cases policies are not adhered to therefore it imperative that there is some form of measure put in place to test if the policy is applied accordingly. Policies and practices are insufficient if the leadership behaviour is not demonstrating the non-tolerance of

The U.S. Government could use the Commerce Clause against the restaurant to correct the situation. In 1964 the Civil Rights Act was passed, which prevented discrimination against African-Americans. The restaurant was discriminating African-Americans by only allowing them to take their food to go and not being allowed to eat inside the restaurant. Prior to the 1964 Civil Rights Act nothing could have been done as it was left up to the states to deal with these types of issues. Now his type of issue would fall under an Equal Protection violation. The Commerce allows the federal civil rights legislation to regulate restaurants. Because the restaurant was not treating their customers equally the federal government could press charges against

Many people might say “Do not judge a book by it's cover”, but many people would be surprised about how many people are prejudiced. In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, there are many aspects of prejudice displayed. The main character, Scout, is faced with inequity and prejudice throughout the book. Out of all the possible ways of discrimination, race, sex, and gender was the three main topics focused in To Kill a Mockingbird.

Legislation by state and federal arms of government has made discrimination in workplaces illegal. This piece of legislation goes further to stipulate the rights and responsibilities of both the subordinates and their employers in the workplace. This legislation aims to bring sanity in the workplace by ensuring that both groups are accountable.

The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell is an action-packed story about an eerie survival game. In the beginning of the text, a hunter named Sanger Rainsford is aboard his yacht when he falls into the ocean and swims to an island nearby. He spots a house in the middle of the woods and goes to it to find shelter, food, clothes, and a place to rest. At the house, Rainsford meets General Zaroff, who tells Rainsford that he has brought big game onto the island to hunt. Rainsford soon realizes that the game is human. Zaroff wants Rainsford to hunt humans with him, but Rainsford refuses because he thinks of it as murder. Zaroff makes a deal with Rainsford,which states for him to leave the island he has to be hunted for three days. If Rainsford

The issue of discrimination is very widely discussed, so widely that laws and statutes have been enacted and are continually addressed every day. This may occur in a courtroom, on the legislative floor or at the employer’s offices, but the fact that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) receives around 80,000 discriminatory filings annually, with 99,922 in 2010, there is little wonder the amount of attention to discrimination is warranted (Walsh, 2013). According to the EEOC’s website, the discrimination claims were more than the annual averages, but less than 99,000 in 2010, at 88,788 in 2014 (“EEOC Releases Fiscal”, 2015). These figures reiterate the importance and diligence in which discriminatory acts must be handled by all parties involved.

The problem that Denny’s had with discrimination was that the black individuals were not being treated equally as the white ones. Two different lawsuits were talked about in this unit, one was about an employee that was being harassed by fellow employees and once it was brought forth to the manager they just ignored it, and the other as a group of people that were not being treated equally while being served. Denny’s corrected these issues with having better training for the managers when it comes to having employees harassed under their business. Denny’s also tried to hire a more diverse group of employees to help run the business. These incidents are a model for other companies because they handle their problems right away when it was brought

There are many policies and procedures put in place to make certain that staff follow the law of equality and diversity, staff must follow these and ensure they are not doing something that may discriminate against an individual or a group.

2.1 Identify the main principles of discrimination law in recruitment and selection and in employment.

McDonald’s has extremely strict rules when it comes to awarding franchises. First, it is very costly to open a new location or purchase an existing location, with the median startup cost being $300,000 (Kalnins & Lafontaine, 2004, p. 750). As well, the company does an extensive background check on a variety of issues including credit history, business management experience, and the acceptance of the contractual agreement that the company provides. Because of these strict rules and the large amount of capital needed to purchase a location, “rates for franchise applicants are 1% for McDonald's” (Norton, 1988, p. 204). This is an extremely low acceptance rate and is even lower than McDonald’s chief competitor, Burger King, who accepts 1.5% percent of applicants (Norton, 1988, p. 199). These low numbers are understandable in the context of the business and risk that is involved. Though the franchise purchaser must pay a large amount of money to gain the rights to the restaurant, they truly have nothing to lose besides money because they are simply running another company’s business model as well as using their trademarks and logos. McDonald’s on the other hand, has a great amount at stake because they place the well being of an entire restaurant into the caretaking of an individual who simply purchased the rights for the store. If the store does poorly or if there are issues with customer service, it reflects

This paper will assess my personal experience with prejudice in the workplace, including the implications of the situation to the organization in terms of its stakeholders, reputation, and its legal responsibilities. Furthermore, I will analyze the negative effects the discriminatory behavior had on morale and functioning of coworkers and employees. Lastly, I will recommend three action steps that I would have taken as a manager to avoid the situation, in addition to three steps to render the situation.

Discrimination occurs when an employee suffers from unfavorable or unfair treatment due to their race, religion, national origin, disabled or veteran status, or other legally protected characteristics. Employees who have suffered reprisals for opposing workplace discrimination or for reporting violations to the authorities are also considered to be discriminated against. Federal law prohibits discrimination in work-related areas, such as recruiting, hiring, job evaluations, promotion policies, training, compensation and disciplinary action. (employeeissues.com, 2006)
