PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!!!
For this assignment, Your final product will be a 4-5 page double-spaced paper on your topic. If you are unsure what topic was assigned from those you chose, click back on Chapter 2 and the HRM Issue Topic Paper assignment within that link.
Be sure in your paper you have addressed the topic, addressed how the topic impacts HRM, and addressed any recent updates to the topic. Think of this as the Senior VP of Human Resource Management at your employer asked you to research this current topic to report back to them on the current news related to the topic, its impact on HRM, how HRM may respond to the topic, and any other recent updates on the topic. HR Departments need to stay abreast of current topics and be able to diagnose when and when it is necessary or not necessary to respond to them.
In terms of formatting your paper, text you write yourself should be formatted in red or blue font - text you bring into your paper through summarizing, paraphrasing, or copying needs to be in black font. YOU MUST INCLUDE PARENTHETICAL CITATIONS WITHIN YOUR PAPER anytime you are summarizing, paraphrasing, copying content into your paper that you did not write. As an example, (Murtaugh, 29) denotes Murtaugh is the author and 29 is the page number. You then need a Murtaugh entry in your List of Works Cited. Note: There are no exceptions to this formatting - red or blue is your writing/black is your source writings.
Your paper also needs to include a Cover Page and a List of Works Cited prepared in APA format. Each of your papers should have a minimum of 3 sources - in addition to your textbook if you choose to use that as a source. Any source listed on your List of Works Cited must also be noted in your paper. These pages are in addition to the 4-5 page requirement noted above.
Spell check, proofread your paper. You are analyzing the issues and applying them to the field of Human Resource Management and addressing the impact of this topic on the workplace - while also using the language of the course.
