How does Title VII of the Civil Rights Act protect you?

 

This assignment explores two key areas of employment law—Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA). Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 created the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) establishes guidelines related to minimum wage, overtime pay, record keeping, and child labor. Some companies find themselves facing legal challenges when they do not adhere to these key employment laws.

In your assignment, please address the following questions:

  • How does Title VII of the Civil Rights Act protect you?
  • Research and analyze a case where a company violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. What did the EEOC do?
  • How does the FLSA help to determine an employee’s pay?
  • The FLSA has had a number of amendments over the years. How would you change it to fit today’s business world?

How could your ethical standpoint clash with the ethical standpoints of others concerning this issue?

500 words
For your Position Paper, as part of the final project, you are picking an issue that has political or social relevance to populations of people (not just yourself). You likely already have a side of this issue that you think is correct. But is it ethical? Because ethics are often (and mistakenly) tied to only religious ideals, people tend to think they are being ethical in their arguments without considering the standpoint of the people they are arguing with. Using the resources for this week, answer the following:
For this discussion, subject your topic to the three frameworks of ethical decision-making (The Consequentialist Framework; The Duty Framework; and the Virtue Framework.)
Does your stance on this issue have a place in any or all of the frameworks? Explain, using supporting materials.
How could your ethical standpoint clash with the ethical standpoints of others concerning this issue? Be specific.
How can you craft your position paper argument to include ethical decision-making elements that expand beyond your original values and beliefs?
It should go without saying, but all of your discussions should include supporting materials, using APA formatting for BOTH in-text citations and a reference section.

Why do you think that there are more participants in Defined Benefit plans?

DISCUSSION 1
Now with a better working knowledge of mutual funds and exchange traded funds, it’s your chance to create your own mutual fund or exchange traded fund. Using various financial websites (i.e., Yahoo Finance, Google Finance, etc.), design your own mutual fund or exchange traded fund.
In your fund, pick at least five (5) investments that will make up your fund. Importantly, please identify the reason(s) you are picking each investment. For example, in short, I would pick Live Nation (NYSE: LYV) because it owns Ticketmaster, and I believe discretionary income for concerts is on the rise. Be thorough in your analysis.
Be sure to rely on sources and cite your references in APA format.

DISCUSSION 2
The book discusses Defined Benefit and Defined Contribution Pension plans (401k & 403b) and says that there are more Defined Contribution plans than Defined Benefit plans, but that there are more participants in Defined Benefit plans. This is a relatively recent (over the last 20 years) phenomenon. Companies have been moving away from Defined Benefit plans in favor of Defined Contribution plans.
Why has this shift been taking place? Why do you think that there are more participants in Defined Benefit plans?
Be sure to rely on sources and cite your references in APA format.
