Labor Issues and Conflict Management
The expectation is that there should be no need for outside sources, so I will be monitoring for duplicated work and copy/paste chunks of text from online sources. You only need your class materials to be successful on this assignment!

I am looking for a memo format wherein you take a 4-step approach to identifying and discussing the issues that appear throughout the story / fact pattern. Each dimension will be graded, so all steps are necessary for full credit.
Issue: state the issue that you see / the potential problem that you have come across
Rule: state the rule / law that provides the answer on how to handle this particular issue, and explain what that rule / law says and requires
Analysis: given the applicable rule / law, discuss the facts of the particular situation and discuss how they apply to that rule / law in this situation.
Conclusion: make a final conclusion / recommendation about whether that rule / law is being violated, and – if so – how it should be remedied.

please keep all parts of the IRAC analysis together for each issue. For example…
Issue: The first issue I identified is X. (statement of the legal question / problem you are going to discuss)
Rule: Under Y law, etc etc etc. (you state the law(s) / rule(s) that apply)
Analysis: Here, we see that employee is doing this and that. (you apply the facts from the story)
Conclusion: based on the above, it seems employee was not paid enough… or employee is entitled to Z… etc.

Keep all those parts in a single paragraph. THEN, move on to paragraph two… Issue 2, Rule 2, Analysis 2, Conclusion 2… in a new paragraph. And so on for each issue. Do not lump all of the issues together, then lump all of the rules together, then all analysis together, then all conclusions together. If you do not follow this format, you will be docked points.

I have to write an appeal to stay on the first shift of my job. I am a Code Enforcement Inspector. I was informed on September 20 that my class (work class) would be moved to second shift and that it was mandatory, to fill the second shift. This would cause a time conflict for me because, I am trying to go back to school. I thought that after a month of being on first shift, that would be my schedule, and I would continue to work first shift. I felt completely blindsided by the last minute notice. I had already begun the process of applying for school.
The classes for school start at 5p.m. The second shift is from 10a.m -6p.m. I’ve already filled out my FAFSA and the enrollment paperwork. My father finally agreed to fund my tuition again if I go back to school.  I feel torn between work and school. I enjoy being a Code Inspector but I would like to go back to school to further my credentials in a different career path to later become an entrepreneur.I don’t want to put one career on hold for another, when I can do both. My Manager asked me to write a paper to appeal the shift change. Please help. I’ve never had to write an appeal.
Hire Date: August 14, 2023
Notified of schedule change: September 21, 2023
New Schedule Starts: September 25, 2023
First Shift: 8a.m-4:30pm
Second Shift: 10a.m.-6:30pm
School Class: 5pm

Can I have someone look at my resume and make adjustments to help me find a job in human resource or another leadership role. I am wanting to start a new career in human resource or payroll as I had a passion for it when I was doing it in my previous job
