Case Study

The company operates about 1,500 convenience stores. A sales assistant at one of the companys stores was murdered while on duty on the second shift. The murder was widely publicized, and employees complained of inadequate security measures. As a result of the murder, 15 sales assistants telephoned the union requesting a union organization effort. The union sent representatives to 60 stores in the area where the murder had occurred and left union authorization cards. Two days later the company notified the union that an injunction had been issued during a prior union campaign prohibiting solicitation on company property. [Hint: Keep in mind that there is no date given when this injunction was filed and whether was still valid.]

The next workday, the company had a meeting with the store managers in the area and talked about the need to improve security. The company officials also discussed the unions organization activities and reminded the managers of the no solicitation policy and stated that a union would not necessarily do the employees any good. Later that week, the company had an unprecedented meeting for all sales assistants. Approximately 1,200 sales assistants attended and were paid for their time. The company officials told the employees that they did not need a union and that the employees from the union could retrieve their authorization cards. The employees were asked to voice their complaints. Thus, the employees listed the following:

getting less than 40 hours work per week;

not having breaks;

not being paid for overtime work;

working alone at night; and

poor lighting at the stores.

The next day the company sent a memo to all regional personnel directing that sales assistants should work a 40-hour workweek; canopy lights were installed at all the stores; a policy was adopted that no one would be required to work alone at night; and sales assistants began receiving wages for after-hours overtime work. The company posted no solicitation signs in all stores and directed that those signs be enforced; if the employees did not enforce the signs, they would lose their jobs. Later that month the company held further meetings with sales assistants, who again were paid for their time. They asked to select committee representatives to meet with management to discuss their complaints. Management officials left the room while the employees selected their representatives. The company made a list of the ten most frequently mentioned items from the employees recommended subjects for the committee to discuss.

Meanwhile, the union filed a representation petition with the NLRB seeking an election in a unit of all College Park, MD sales assistants. The company president told the managers to tell the sales assistants that if they joined the union, the company would close those stores. The first meeting of the Employee Management Committee was held and the ten priority items were listed, granting employees a new vacation policy, improved health-care benefits, sick days, change in holiday hours for pay, recognition of seniority ranks, and improved security systems. Not long after that, the company sent an additional memo around announcing other improvements in life, major medical, and accident insurance plans, in addition to death and family benefits and a revised disciplinary appeal system. [Hint: One has to wonder if this is a last-minute effort by Management, or an early Christmas gift for employees but now is your time to consider the possibilities.]

As we have explored, throughout this module, HRM plays a critical role in shaping an organizations success. HR professionals, especially those who are strategic, can help to improve employee engagement, can transform organizational culture, and can work to enhance business outcomes. In this discussion, you need to investigate a real-world example of an organization that has experienced positive outcomes after modifying or improving its HRM practices.

First, locate a recent (2021 to present) online article (from a news outlet, industry publication, or organizational blog) that describes how an organization benefited from updated or enhanced HRM practices.

The selected article does not need to be scholarly in nature; however, it should ideally come from a credible online source (e.g., Forbes, Harvard Business Review, HRCI, SHRM, etc.).

Then, share the article link: Include the direct link to the article in your initial post so your peers can access and review the articles content.

Lastly, summarize the article in your initial post by addressing the following:

• Organization Overview: Briefly describe details about the organization. Then, summarize the main points of the article.
• HRM Practice Changes: Explain what HRM practices were modified, introduced, or enhanced. Provide any information that you can locate (from the article or additional research) about why these changes were implemented (e.g., to address turnover, boost engagement, attract talent, etc.).
• Outcomes Achieved: Explain any measurable or observable results of these HRM changes. For example, due to the changes made, did productivity improve? Did enhanced retention occur? Did morale increase?
• Support with Research: Identify and cite one scholarly source (e.g., an academic journal article published from 2022 to present) that supports why the practice achieved what it was set forth to do. For example, you could explain how the practice resulted in higher retention, improved engagement, etc. Then, locate one popular or professional source (e.g., AIHR, Forbes, HBR, HRCI, SHRM, etc.) that reinforces the value of the HRM practice or strategy used in your example.

Develop each answer to the fullest extent possible, discussing the nuances of each topic and presenting your arguments logically, using at least 3 resources for each topic.
