You are to prepare a one page handout on an employment law topic covered in the course (but NOT your group project topic). This handout would be something to be given to your employees in the company for which you are an HR manager to educate the employees on that area of the law as it pertains to them as employees. The extra credit needs to be professional, accurate, and informative to meet the overall goal of protecting the company/employer from liability.Our group project was about harassment.

HO/PPP should be written to an audience of general employees
As with any good HO/PPP, it should not be full, solid pages of tiny text but contain some
bulleted or well-spaced, easy to read and understand statements scattered among
paragraphs of text as necessary
HO/PPP should give audience practical advice on how to conduct themselves or how
NOT to conduct themselves, etc.
HO/PPP should encapsulate the major concerns or “no-no’s” of the topic area
Give examples, ‘rules of thumb’, and scenarios as illustrations to properly educate your
audience
HO/PPP should assume reader has NO prior knowledge or understanding of the topic
other than hearing cases on that topic across the news stations, etc. and receiving
incorrect information.
Grading will be based on the quality of the finished product and accuracy of guidance
May be in the form of handout, booklet, etc. but no longer than 5 pages (one side of an
8.5” x 11” piece of paper equals one page) ; If your group chooses to do a PowerPoint
presentation, it should be no more than 12 slides
You may use illustrations that would be appropriate in the workplace
Be creative but the information must be useful as well as accurate
The handout should be of professional quality – what you would be expected to hand out
or present to employees at an actual place of business.

any lawsuits or threats of the same in the future. Your group is the owner and/or HR
manager for the company.
Note that employees will not understand the legal rules and standards as stated in the
book or in the statutes from which they are derived. Your job is to take these legal
rules/standards and break them down into common language, advice, and guidelines to
