Creating Ethical Work Environments

Catalog description

This course will explore how companies create and sustain ethical work environments and challenge students to systematically think about ethical dilemmas in human resources. The course will explore ethical practice across four areas of human resources: 1) acquiring employees (employment planning, recruitment, and selection); 2) developing employees (training, mentoring, performance feedback); 3) rewarding employees (salary, incentives, benefits); and 4) managing employment relations (unions, safety). The course will include an emphasis across these areas on diversity, inclusion, and social responsibility.
