Bandag Automotive: The case can be found in the E-Text under Appendix C: Comprehensive Cases.

You should be able to complete this case analysis by utilizing the information presented in the case, the topics and information we have covered in class/in the textbook, and using your own knowledge. While information may be obtained from all of the chapters we have covered, Chapters 2, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 will include the majority of the information you need to effectively answer the questions. 

Questions:

1. Given Bandag Automotive’s size, and anything else you know about it, should we reorganize the human resource management function, and if so, why and how?
2. What, if anything, would you do to change and/or improve upon the current HR systems, forms, and practices that we now use?
3. Do you think that the employee whom Jim fired for creating what the manager called a poisonous relationship has a legitimate claim against us, and if so, why and what should we do about it?
4. Is it true that we really had to put Gavin back into an equivalent position, or was it adequate to just bring him back into a job at the same salary, bonuses, and benefits as he had before his leave?
5. Miriam, the controller, is basically claiming that the company is retaliating against her for being pregnant, and that the fact that we raised performance issues was just a smokescreen. Do you think the EEOC and/or courts would agree with her, and, in any case, what should we do now?
6. An employee who is deaf has asked us to be one of our delivery people and we turned him down. He’s now threatening to sue. What should we do, and why?
7. In the previous 10 years, we’ve had only one equal employment complaint, and now in the last few years we’ve had four or five. What should I do about it? Why?
