Description
Introduction
Because of the glowing review you received for your job aid, your boss has charged you with assessing a workplace incident involving several CapraTek employees. The incident occurred in the lunchroom and was observed by a valued customer who happened to be onsite. In the aftermath of this incident, there have been complaints of harassment by employees, and the customer has declined to do further business with CapraTek.
Scenario
CapraTek combines years of engineering experience with production that is continually achieving new efficiencies. The company is committed to living its values through initiatives that focus on development of human capital, commitment to being a good corporate neighbor, and support of green technology initiatives. Founded in 1984, CapraTek has been profitable every year since its inception.
With operations centers in Silicon Valley, South Carolina, New Mexico, and Illinois, and partners in Singapore, India, and Taiwan, CapraTek is positioned for continued worldwide growth in the coming years. As the organization has grown, however, the management plan has not always reflected best practices. A recent workplace incident offers an opportunity for analysis and improvements to the HR management plan.
