This course taught me about the legal framework for employment law in Canada; employment equity; creating policies; and self-identification questionnaires.
​
The three assignments in this section are all regarding the same fictional organization that I created, Surge Media.
ASSIGNMENT: EMPLOYMENT EQUITY COMMUNICATION TOOL
Assignment Type: Individual
Skills: Writing, Critical Thinking, Analytical Thinking, Editing and Formating, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Power Point
​
Developed an Employment Equity communication tool for a fictional organization. The understanding was that this would be the first communication of any kind on Employment Equity/Diversity in the organization. The type of tool was restricted to only my creativity;therefore, I chose to create a presentation. Because my organization was fictional, I provided background on the size and structure of Surge Media.
ASSIGNMENT: EMPLOYMENT EQUITY POLICY
Assignment Type: Pair
Skills: Writing, Critical Thinking, Policy Development, Analytical Thinking, Teamwork, Leadership, Microsoft Word
​
Continuing with my fictional organization, Surge Media, in pairs we drafted an Employment Equity/Diversity Policy.
ASSIGNMENT: SELF-IDENTIFICATION QUESTIONNAIRE
Assignment Type: Pair
Skills: Writing, Critical Thinking, Teamwork, Leadership, Microsoft Word
In the same pair, we developed a Self-Identification Questionnaire (SIQ) for the fictional organization, Surge Media. We were to make reference to special accommodations anddescribe the communication techniques and follow-up methods that would be used.
