Study Objectives from Chapter 1 PSY 6430, SP19 1 Unit 1 Gatewood, Feild, & Barrick, Chapters 1 & 4 (note carefully, chapter 4, not chapter 2!). Before beginning to read the chapters, take time to read the dedication of the book as well as “about the authors" on xv. You will enjoy them. They are not typical. Page and paragraph designations. At the beginning of each objective, I have indicated the page number and the paragraph number of the text where the answer can be found. For example, "3,2" at the end of an objective would mean that the answer could be found on page 3, in paragraph 2 counting down from the top of the page. Sometimes I will refer to a section of the text that is at the top of a page but continued from a paragraph that began on the preceding page. I will indicate this as paragraph "0". Thus, "7,0" means that the answer can be found on page 7 at the top of the page. While I will be as accurate as I can be with these page and paragraph numbers, my computer sometimes makes mistakes. Therefore, if you cannot locate an answer in the paragraph that is indicated, look at the paragraphs that immediately precede and follow it. Please tell me if the page and paragraph numbers are wrong so that I can inform the other members of the class. To get an idea of where we are headed in the course, look at Figure 1.2 on page 9. That outlines the steps in the development of a selection program. I am going to start with equal employment opportunity (EEO) and affirmative action (AA) laws, then deal with the professional steps involved in developing a sound selection program that meets both legal and professional requirements, but first, I want you to become a little familiar with basic terms/concepts in personnel selection, hence the study objectives from Chapter 1. Chapter 1 1. 5, point #4. A. The costs of selection become an important factor for the organization when there are large numbers of applicants. What do organizations frequently do at this point and how is this done? B. Based on the following be able to state the benefit/costs of dramatically reducing the number of applicants at the beginning of the selection process. The reduction of the number of applicants contains the cost of the selection (keeps it “reasonable”) which is the benefit. However, it comes at a cost of rejecting a large number of applicants based only on limited information. Hence, the organization may reject quite a few qualified individuals. 2. 7,2. How are selection and training related? This is a very important point to keep in mind. The next part is not for the exam, but just like selection and training, selection and performance management are also related: The better your selection system, the less “intensive” (and costly) your pm systems need to be. 3. 11,2-3. What are the two requirements for choosing the selection devices to be used? 4. 12,2. What is the purpose of validation? This is true whether empirical validation (12,2) or content validation (12,3) is used. Don't worry right now about the differences between the two - later in the course we will be spending a lot of time on different validation procedures. PSY 6430, SP19 2 5. 13,1 Why is it that selection is an uncertain activity? Don’t just say because the essence is “prediction”: include a summary of the last two sentences in the paragraph. 6. 13,3. Not for the exam, but the material in 13,3 is very interesting. And, you no doubt can “relate” to it. We will come back to this when we look at resumes but note that up to 40% of applicants distort or falsify their applications, resumes, and interviews! Most companies are “on to that” by the way. If you are caught doing that, you will not be hired. 7. 15,1-3. Not for the exam but note the important points in the second sentence of 15,1 and in 15,2. The primary purpose of selection is to enhance the probability of making correct employment decisions –selection cannot always predict who will perform better than someone else due to the many factors that influence performance. Go to Chapter 4 8. 105,2 Not for the exam but note the wording of the second objective carefully. The key words are to minimize the chance of a judgment of discrimination against the organization: not to prevent charges of discrimination. A company cannot prevent charges of discrimination but it can decrease the chance that the selection procedures will be ruled as biased by the courts. 9. Before considering the laws/regulations, I am going to add two very important points here - learn them: (1) None of the laws/regulations, EEO or AA, require an organization to hire an unqualified minority; (2) Laws/regulations are only applicable if your selection system has an unequal effect on applicants because of some demographic characteristic - A lousy selection system that affects everyone the same is NOT illegal. 10. STUDY OBJECTIVES FOR THE FOLLOWING MATERIAL. Do not try to answer these until you have read all of the material provided in the study objective. 10A. Be able to state the groups/characteristics covered/protected by each law. 10B. Explain the three major differences between the laws administered by the EEOC and OFCCP (I summarize these for you at the end of the material). On page 107, Table 4.1 lists the major EEO laws and Executive Orders. However, they are not categorized well, so I am going to present these laws/regulations in a different manner. I am also going to skip some of them and only cover the major ones. I am also going to skip the Constitutional Amendments for now and return to those later, since they have quite different provisions than these first two sets of laws. As stated in 106,1 there are two very different categories of laws/regulations - (a) laws passed by Congress – the legislative branch of our government - and administered by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and (b) those passed by the executive branch of the government (the Executive Orders) and administered by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Program which is part of the Department of Labor. PSY 6430, SP19 3 Equal Employment Opportunity Laws - passed by Congress, administered by the EEOC Note that all of the laws administered by the EEOC are relevant for all public and private employers with more than 15 employees including the US Congress but excluding the military, private clubs, religious organizations, corporations owned wholly by the US government, and places of employment connected to Native American reservations. Native American reservations are sovereign nations and thus not subject to these laws. Title VII of the race, color, religion, sex, national origin Civil Rights Act of 1964 And, as amended in 1978, pregnancy, childbirth or related conditions Civil Rights Act of 1991 Same as Title VII This is not actually a separate act - it amends Title VII (I'll explain in lecture) Age Discrimination people over 40 years of age in Employment Act of 1967 Americans with Disabilities Act physically and mentally handicapped 1990 (ADA) ADA Amendments Act, 2008 same as the ADA Again, this is not really a separate act – it amends ADA Genetic Information genetic information, which includes family Nondiscrimination Act, 2008 medical history (not in text, but becoming increasingly important) EEO and Affirmative Action Laws- enacted by the executive branch (the President), administered by the OFCCP in the Dept. of Labor These laws are relevant only to government contractors that have contracts with the government. A "government contractor" is any organization that enters into a work contract with the government OR receives federal funds. WMU, for example, is considered to be a government contractor and thus must abide by these laws. Executive Order 11246 race, color, religion, sex, national origin In 2015, President Obama amended this order to include sexual orientation and gender identity but in 2017, President Trump rescinded the amendment. Rehabilitation Act of 1973 physically and mentally handicapped Vietnam Era Veterans Act of 1974 Any veteran, specifically including as amended March 2014 * disabled veterans *Yes, this is now an odd name for this Act. Prior to March 2014, the act only covered Vietnam era veterans and veterans from any era that were 30% or more disabled. Now it covers all veterans. PSY 6430, SP19 4 WHY THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF LAWS: EEO versus AA Okay, why are there two sets of laws? Well, as indicated above and in the text, the laws administered by the OFCCP are relevant only to government contractors. The government wanted to promote and encourage affirmative action as a social policy. Therefore, the laws administered by the OFCCP require affirmative action while the laws covered by the EEOC do NOT (affirmative action is VERY different than equal employment - we'll get to this a little later). Essentially, AA gives preferential treatment to individuals with certain demographic characteristics. The government realized it was not right to require private/public organizations to give preferential treatment to any citizen, putting other citizens at a disadvantage. The government could, however, require organizations that get money from the government to adhere to their social policy because those organizations have “voluntarily” entered into that relationship with the government. The organizations can decide not to do business with the government and hence not to comply with the AA requirements, but if they take the government’s money then they must abide by these laws/regulations.

  • December 4, 2017 the Hon. Wilbur L. Ross, Jr., Secretary United States Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW Washi
    December 4, 2017 The Hon. Wilbur L. Ross, Jr., Secretary United States Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20230 Re: Uncoated Groundwood Paper from Canada, Inv. Nos. C–122–862 and A-122-861 Dear Secretary Ross: On behalf of the thousands of employees working at the more than 1,100 newspapers that we publish in cities and towns across the United States, we urge you to heavily scrutinize the antidumping and countervailing duty petitions filed by North Pacific Paper Company (NORPAC) regarding uncoated groundwood paper from Canada, the paper used in newspaper production. We believe that these cases do not warrant the imposition of duties, which would have a very severe impact on our industry and many communities across the United States. NORPAC’s petitions are based on incorrect assessments of a changing market, and appear to be driven by the short-term investment strategies of the company’s hedge fund owners. The stated objectives of the petitions are flatly inconsistent with the views of the broader paper industry in the United States. The print newspaper industry has experienced an unprecedented decline for more than a decade as readers switch to digital media. Print subscriptions have declined more than 30 percent in the last ten years. Although newspapers have successfully increased digital readership, online advertising has proven to be much less lucrative than print advertising. As a result, newspapers have struggled to replace print revenue with online revenue, and print advertising continues to be the primary revenue source for local journalism. If Canadian imports of uncoated groundwood paper are subject to duties, prices in the whole newsprint market will be shocked and our supply chains will suffer.
