Your Unit 5 assignment forum is based on the Whitley vs BP, P.L.C. case study found in Chapter 12 of your textbook. The case involved a denial of benefits. At issue was the legality of a stock-drop suit directly in light of the Supreme Court’s recently stated requirements for such cases. The appellate court ultimately found the stockholders’ amended complaint as insufficient, and the district court erred in granting the stockholders’ motion to amend. You will explore the facts leading up to a decision in this case and evaluate the importance of this ruling to human resources practice and your role as a human resources practitioner.  Instructions:  As the Human Resource Manager at GreenTech Ltd., you are ready to prepare your next report. You will review, assess, and analyze a topic, event, or case, and based on your findings, you will share a written report with your supervisor, the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO). Your report will summarize the topic, event, or case and will include a recommendation for improving HR practice at your company.  Unit 5 Topic: Read the Whitley vs BP, P.L.C. case study found in Chapter 12 of your textbook readings this week.

Evaluate how the role of benefits as a compensation strategy impacts your practice as a Human Resources Manager.   Based on your review of the case study, address the role of benefits, in particular retirement benefits, in hiring practices in general and what the employer’s mandatory or discretionary obligations are regarding the structure of those benefits.   Part 1 • Summarize the law or legal principle involved.
