Assignment - Managing Equality and Diversity at Work
The purpose of this assessment is to get you to examine your views, and practice formulating the kinds of precise, persuasive arguments you are likely to find very helpful as you move on to your future careers.
You are required to formulate a 250 word argument for or against each of two of the following controversial statements.
1. Work-life balance is only of importance to mothers
2. The economic benefits of modern slavery outweigh any reputational damage for firms
3. A person's commitment to their job decreases as they age
4. A focus on managing diversity is incompatible with ensuring equality at work.
You will need to familiarise yourself with 'how to argue' using the resources in the 'assessment' section of the unit Moodle site. Briefly summarised, an argument includes:
- An assertion which responds to your chosen statement.
- Reason(s) why this assertion should be accepted; and x Evidence for why the reason(s) are valid/ convincing.
It is not enough to just assert something, say it is important, then add a reference. You will need to explain your reasoning behind your thinking and support that with evidence why that reason should be accepted as a good one. In academic work, evidence is usually in the form of references to high quality research, statistics, or views from other reputable authorities (such as industry bodies or trade unions for example).
You should include one list of references at the end of your two 250 word arguments.
Remember you can complete this assignment to a high standard even if you do not feel sure of your personal position on the issue - think of the number of lawyers who know their client is guilty, but still mount a case for their innocence anyway!
Note - Total word count 500 words excluding references list.
