In an organization, there are many employment policies in the
company handbook. This handbook is given to employees at the
start of the employer-employee relationship, and although
generally not construed as a binding contract against the company
in a later lawsuit over the policies, it governs the expectations of
employees at the workplace. This Mini Project will have you
analyze a company handbook as it relates to the company’s
disability policy(ies) and provide a written report of your findings.
The report should be at least two pages in length. Please cite your
reference using APA format.
Review the employee handbook at your place of employment. If
you are unemployed, you can review the handbook you might have
handy from a previous employer, or ask to look at one from your
spouse, other family member, or friend.
In your response, discuss what the handbook says about how the
company deals with disability issues and accommodating
employees with disabilities.
Explain what, if any, steps the company provides for an employee
to present a request for accommodation. Use specific examples
within the contract to support your answer.
Do the company policies articulate a difference in how the
company treats workplace injuries as opposed to other disabling
injuries (such as non-work related injuries or congenital or innate
disabling issues)? If so, how? If no, do you think it is effective
and/or wise not to include a written distinction?
Is the policy fair? If yes, why? If no, what could the company do to
improve the policy? Think about the term "fair" from both an
employer and an employee perspective.
