In the medical field or especially, in the health care administration RIF is defined as Reduction in force. Reduction in force is separation from employment due to lack of funds, lack of work, redesign or elimination of a position or reorganization because employee itself is eliminated. Losing your job because of RIF or budget cuts can be extremely demoralizing. RIF may be necessary or appropriate when there is redundancy in roles, or excess capacity within a work group or across work groups. As it is the 10% RIF these might be very minor reduction in the organization which we can take an example of a case where I have to redesign my organization.

Here I use RIF, such that, first I ask to reduce the female employees after sorting them based on their work and recruit the male workers and also I inform earlier these females. So through this way I can get the much better male workers than my less-skilled female employees. RIF is necessary in organization for many reasons like for economy, sale of company and mergers, to prevent from over staffing, bankruptcy and relocations. The ultimate goal of the RIF is that to cut costs, increase production, increase efficiency and quality and also improve better services.
Focusing on the second question like laws so there are many laws for the RIF and also as an administrator should know all these things in a proper way . Talking about the first law, it is worker adjustment and retraining notification act( WARN act). WARN is a federal law requiring employees of more than 100employees to give written layoff notice at least 60 days before any plant closing or " Mass layoff". It is designed to provide protection to workers, their families and communities. For instance, as I mentioned above example that if we apply this law in that if I remove the female workers so I
In an office setting, RBRVS determines overall cost of visit. The Relative Value Unit (RVU) is a created value to measure resource consumption by assigning numeric values. RVUs are divided into three domains, each with different weight. This metric sums the salary of provider, facility/practice expense (inclusive of utilized resources), and malpractice adjustment (exposure level to account for). This determines the overall Relative Value Unit (RVU) which is then multiplied by the GPCI (geographic index specific for each factor) which adjusts for cost differences in different areas. The total RVU is multiplied by conversion factor to equal reimbursement. Doctors working more and producing more RVUs are making more
The recruitment plan will be communicated to the employees as soon as possible. The goal is to identify the employees (mostly women) who have the skills, knowledge, and attitude to perform future jobs. Increasing the percentage of women in key positions such as the executive board and management will increase diversity. Communication will be achieved through different channels. Human Resources will send information by email, company websites, social media such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Employees such as those who work in warehouses or customer service may not have access to computers. Therefore, the information will be posted in break rooms, paycheck envelopes, or any areas that employees have access to before external recruitment
Another major problem the R.R.C. is facing is an issue experienced by many government offices. Job security is basically ensured at the R.R.C. and the process to terminate an employee is extensive and time consuming. All efforts must be taken to first make a reasonable effort to assist the employee in improving their performance. If the employee can't perform the duties of their position, an effort must be made to move them to a position they are capable of performing. If the employee is incompetent for any available position, only then can an employee be terminated. The biggest issue comes when the employer needs to

The effect of mismanaged LAYOFFs on the remaining workforce and the effects, lack of management preparation, the human condition, and lack of mitigation strategies. We think that the problem with this article is that not enough managers or HR personal, know how to let a person go from their employment effectively. They sometimes don't realize the impact that it has on the other employees morals. Also, that sometimes companies don't take a closer look to make sure downsizing will be the answer to cutting costs like they think that it will.

Resource based relative value scale (RBRVS) was designed to determine the cost of the medical providers and the amounts they should be paid. It is ususally used and created by the medicare in the US and by nearlly all HMOs. It assigns procedures performed by the physician or the medical providers.

•Gender Discrimination-Diane is female and has been with the company for some time. Diane would have to prove that we are terminating her because she is female. This would be very hard to prove because we have not discriminated based on gender and there are two other employees male and one of them is minority in the process of being terminated. Another fact is that the HR department has two other female employees. Diane is also aware that she had a minor attendance performance where we worked with her and still kept her with the company. The company also has other females working in the stores and this indicates that we do not discriminate against gender.

RBVS stands for "resource-based relative value scale", which is a physician based payment schedule. This was implemented by the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act in 1989 to fairly represent the resources used to perform a procedure and/or surgery. The three elements composed of the RBRVS are:
During the time that an organization is downsizing the supervisor and the managers has to be compassionate, respectful, and honest. They also have to be organized and continue to talk about the progress they are making (Quast, 2014). The regulatory guideline states that if there would be more than 50 employees that were being laid off all at the same time, the Federal Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act has to be performed. Under the WARN Act, it “protects workers, their families, and communities by requiring employers to provide notification 60 calendar days in advance of plant closings and mass layoffs”(United States Department of Labor, 2009). If the organization does not give the workers the 60 days notice then
The Moore Beer Incorporation is a brewing company that was profiting 25 million dollar a year. The company opened two online marketing and direct distribution channels and soon after the websites went live, technology problems along with slow moving sales killed the company’s profits. As an effect of the company’s slow sales they have decided to abandon its new direct marketing plan and to reduce its employees. The President of the company was given a list to terminate some employees. Some employees may be given an option to transfer into existing openings in other areas of the company. In 1978, Congress enacted the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Act (WARN ACT) to deal with plant closings and mass layoffs. It requires employers that have 100 or more employees to give a 60-day notice of a plant closing if 50 or more workers at one site lose their jobs. A mass-layoff provision of the law requires a 60-day notice of layoffs to affected workers if the affected workers make up at least 33 percent of the workforce at the site (with a minimum of 50 affected workers). If 500 or more employees are to be laid off, notice is required regardless of the percentage of the workforce to be laid off at the site (Twomey, David, p.689, 2013). During a layoff or reduction process the selection should be based on measurable and unbiased job-related factors such as:
According to Hussain, Wallace and Cornelius (2006), “recruitment and selection is the process of finding, attracting and hiring or choosing the best-qualified individual from the available applicants to the right job”. The recruitment can be either internal or external, i.e., to either fill a job vacancy from within the existing employees in the company or to hire someone from outside the company. As Microsoft aims at reorganizing the sales team, certain positions are being considered for elimination. Therefore, the HR department of Microsoft would perform job analysis and evaluation in order to see what skills are required for that particular job and then recruit and select the employees. This could also be done by repositioning the existing employees after evaluating their skills and efficiency. Furthermore, the HRM of Microsoft would help the employees to adapt to the changes made to their positions or face elimination in order to “align the workforce with that of the company and to be an excellent contributor to the company” (Edward L.
