Employment Legislation

In spite of the existence of legislation for the past 40 years, there is still evidence that the average salary paid to a man is greater than that paid to a woman. There are some factors underlying this (such as women taking career breaks for child care) but overall there still seems to be a difference.

Explore the reasons for this difference in pay. If the legislation to date has not solved this problem what do you think can be done to improve the situation?

You should justify your arguments with reference to relevant legislation, academic theory and examples of case law.

Correct referencing and bibliography should be used to support your arguments.

This can either be in a report or essay format

Question 2 Robert is a computer programmer with substantial experience in programming. He was offered a job at another company with a 15% increase in pay. However, he needs to join the new company next month and his minimum notice period of resignation is two months. He is also engaged in a project that is highly valuable to his current company. The project is 20% from completion and Robert is the lead programmer. If he resigns with less than two months of notice, he will lose his year end bonus of $30,000/- , 10 days of sick leave worth of $1,500/- and $300 worth of travel incentive vouchers. His current company’s managing director, Ray, hired Robert when he was fresh out of school 5 years ago. Robert feels he is indebted to Ray for giving him a head start in life so to speak. He is concerned with the potential disappointment that Ray may have especially, given the fact the turn-key project is close to completion. He is also concerned how Ray would perceive his immediate departure. Robert heard that you have just completed a course in business negotiation and requested your help. Appraise the negotiation process Robert can adopt, and formulate the optimal strategy for Robert.

Question 4 African Oranges and Pears sent a cargo of fruits to European Supermarket Ltd. However due to a chicken pox outbreak in Africa, all ships were forbidden by the Government to enter any European port. A dispute broke out as what was previously agreed between the parties in such a situation on compensation. Part of the dispute was due to a misunderstanding from the belief that the other party was out to cheat them and therefore one was entitled to use unethical tactics in negotiating with them. In addition, both parties came from different cultural backgrounds. Both sides decided that their negotiators must undergo a quick training before commencing the negotiation to ensure a better chance of success and appointed you as their expert trainer. Critique the role of culture in negotiation and describe the areas you need to include in your training syllabus for this training project. (20 marks)
