Devry HRM410 Week 7 Assignment – Strategic Staffing Latest 2023

Week 7
HRM410: Strategic Staffing
Application Form Assignment
YOUR NAME:
You are the new HR manager for this fictitious (private sector) company, which has hundreds of employees and is clearly obligated under Title VII and other major employment regulations. Rather than starting over from scratch with a brand new application form, many HR managers would likely take a look at the existing form first.
Using the table located at the very bottom of this document, identify the ten (10) items that are legally problematic* on this employment application form, why they are problematic, and what could possibly be in their place, if applicable. Use of the table is required.
When you are done “save” or “save as” this document with your last name, then first initialand assignment name (e.g. SmithLApplForm.docx) and place your name in the table box above. Then load it to your Dropbox by end of Week 6.
Please email your instructor if you have any questions.
*By problematic we are looking for possible violations of various employment regulations. Note that some may not be blatantly illegal, but, rather problematic and best to avoid as a best practice.
One final tip: Do not focus on stylist elements such as the layout of the application form or questions you do not “like.” Focus only on the legally problematic items.

“Do you own a car?”
This answer is excellent. It addresses specifically why the item is problematic (possible Title VII violation) and provides appropriate replacement verbiage. It is also cited properly to the text since the wording was taken verbatim. The next example is also perfectly fine as the answer is in the student’s own words (no citation required), and still addresses the specifics of the possible violation and appropriate replacement verbiage.
“Use of credit rating questions tend to have an adverse impact on minority group applicants and women and has been found unlawful in some cases. Unless shown to be job-related, questions on car ownership . . . may violate Title VII” (Gatewood, Feild, Barrick, 2008, p. 373).
“’Do you have the use of a reliable car?” (if car travel is required by the job’” (Gatewood, Feild, Barrick, 2008, p. 373).
5
The question about car ownership
This can violate Title VII since it can have an adverse impact on those in a protected class.
We can ask if they have access to a reliable vehicle if it is job related, meaning driving for the job is required.
