For this assignment, you will conduct two separate case studies. You should include both in a single document to upload in Blackboard.

Case studies are an essential learning strategy in business classes; they provide an opportunity for you to critically analyze events that have taken place in real-life businesses. This develops your critical thinking and research skills as you research the competition and industry in which your business resides with an end goal of formulating a recommendation for the challenges faced by the company.

Part I: For your first case study, review PAC Resources, Inc.: A Case Study in HR Practices. This assignment should be at least two pages in length. You must use at least two credible sources (other than the case study source) to support your analysis.

Evaluate this case, and respond to each of the following prompts using both theory and practical managerial thinking as well as supporting research.

• Identify the human capital problems that PAC Resources is facing specific to its functional area, as classified by the SHRM BoCK.
• Generate solutions to the problems you identified, and apply HR best practices.
• Develop a plan for implementation that increases overall organizational effectiveness.
• Anticipate and address legal and ethical problems that may occur with implementation.

Part 2: For your second case study, you will review Religious Discrimination and Racial Harassment: What Ever Happened to MarShawn DeMur?  This assignment should be at least three pages in length. You must use at least three credible sources (other than the case study source) to support your analysis.

Evaluate this case by responding to each of the following prompts. Use both theory and practical managerial thinking as well as supporting research.

• Describe specific discriminatory situations Maalick encountered in the workplace.
• Explain the broader ethical and legal implications of the situation for Treton.
• Locate three peer-reviewed empirical research studies (quantitative) published within the past 5 years focused on the two discriminatory situations identified in the previous prompt. Identify the author(s), and paraphrase the purpose of the study, research design and methodology, theoretical framework, research findings, and future research recommendations. Synthesize the research findings of the implications on the organization, teams, or individual employees.
• Create a plan of action to reduce or prevent discrimination in the workplace.
• Develop a Nondiscrimination/Equal Employment Opportunity Policy for Treton.

Do not use the question-and-answer format; rather, use the essay format demonstrated in the sample case study. Use section headings to delineate topic transitions. Cite to support conjecture.
