Writing Assignment

Topic: Occupational Health and safety regulations, ensuring employee protection.

First step: write a paragraph describing the legal topic that you have chosen using good sentence structure with proper spelling, grammar and punctuation (points will be deducted). Please include a basic description of the facts and a succinct description of the legal issue you plan to write about. Write the paragraph in your own words. Do not quote the article. If you must paraphrase, please cite it properly. Also, you MUST provide a weblink citation to the article or news report that you used to choose your legal topic or there will be an automatic 3-point deduction. Please list the citation at the end of the first paragraph.

Second step: provide a description of what source of law your topic centers upon. If there are multiple sources of law, please provide all of them. For example, if it is statutory law, please give me the name of the law or the citation.

Third step: write one paragraph which describes your opinion of the legal topic or the direction you believe the legal topic will go. I want you to explore your attitudes/thoughts on the legal topic. I do not want the positives and negatives of a particular issue. I want to know what you think about the particular legal issue you have chosen to explore/follow and how you might persuade me to your way of thinking about the subject. If you do not give me your opinion, there will be an automatic 5 point deduction.
