Grading Rubric: Factor selection and application to work environment above: 2 marks per factor [6 marks) Research summaries: 1 mark per summary [3 marks] Citations: 3 marks Overall quality of work: 3 marks TOTAL: 15 You work for the human resources department of a large auto assembly plant that employs approximately 5,000 workers. The plant runs 24/? with three 3-hour shifts per day. The work can be very strenuous and stressful. Although there are many positions within the plant that are less physically demanding, they still entail a fast pace of work, leaving little time for socialization or personal activities. Employees are required to work all three shifts on a rotating basis, often disrupting family life. While hourly pay and health benets are slightly above industry standards, workers have been increasingly complaining about the routine and repetitive nature of the work, the physical and emotional stress while working, and the negative impact rotating shifts have on achieving a positive work-life balance. Talk of unionization and the need for better work conditions is being openly discussed and has resulted in some questionable rings by management, creating increased friction and poor worker-management relations. Not everyone is suited to this type of work, and human resources are routinely criticized for not screening job applicants properly to ensure a better person-environment t. A recent survey among workers indicated that as many as half of the workforce are dissatised with their job, and one-third would quit if they found work that would at least match compensations and benets. Fearing mass resignations and possible unionization, you have been asked for recommendations to improve job satisfaction and worker happiness. You have been asked to select three of the factors in the gure above and recommend how they can each be developed in a manufacturing setting of the company so that employees may eventually report higher rates of job satisfaction. Each of your three recommendations should be supported by an expert opinion
