Talent Turnover and
Ethics
Introduction: Using the appropriate training
and development methods can have significant effects on employee performance
and the success or failure of a company. Similarly, ethics also can impact how
employees and the company are perceived, which can ultimately affect the
success of the organization.
Read the scenario and
address the checklist items regarding employee training, development, and
ethics.
Scenario: The technology company you work
for has had difficulties resulting from expert employees leaving the company
after only 6 months to a year of employment. This turnover has caused client
software projects to not be completed as scheduled. The CEO has turned to you
as the HR director to find out what is wrong and to recommend a remedy. You do
some initial investigations only to find that the salaried, full-time employees
at this level of expertise are working 60 hours a week or more on a regular basis.
You are concerned not only for the business implications of this attrition
problem but the ethical implications.
Checklist:
Describe the company’s problem in
your own words from a business and ethical perspective.
Choosing one of the ethical approaches, describe what ethical approach you would use for
the development of these employees and explain why.
Describe the training and
development methods you would use to improve employee morale, motivation,
and to reduce attrition. Include two specific examples that improve
employee morale, motivation, and reduce attrition.
Submit your minimum
2-page (i.e., 500 words)
Microsoft Word paper in
an original essay with additional title and reference pages in APA format and
citation style.
