3d585086e You have accepted the position of vice president of human resources for the company A
Wonderful Healthcare Place to Work, Inc. You start your new career by meeting employees throughout
all levels in the organization and by studying policies, procedures, and files held by the organization on
employees, events, and activities surrounding people issues w ith the firm. One common theme you
hear at all levels of employees is the “company does not care about me.” When those same employees
were questioned about this, they cannot give you specific information as to why they feel this way. One
area that you find interesting when you begin to study policy and procedure is that you find no
indication of how people are held accountable for their work. You find no performance measures, no
records that would indicate that labor costs are being tracked to determine efficiency or effectiveness of
people’s work, and no method to determine how and when raises to both hourly and salaried
employees should occur. You cannot find where the company tracks either hourly or salaried
absenteeism or tardiness. You ask to see a breakdown of employees by gender, race, age, disability
accommodation, and by job classification only to find this has never been tracked. One of the things you
notice is that apart from the president, there seem to be no females in the firm. You also notice there
seems to be only white males working there. You see no one who seems to be over 30 years of age.
When you talk to HCM 6100, Health Field Human Resource Management 2
people about their backgrounds, you find very few w ith any education past high school. Most
employees seem to have worked for the firm less than 2 years. You ask for a record of voluntary and
involuntary turnover, and you are told this is not available. You ask for the most recent wage and salary
survey along w ith benefits surveys, and you are told this has never been done. You ask for the previous
year’s goals and objectives for the human resources department, and you are informed the former VP
just told the employees to “do what they were told since things change a lot around here.” You meet w
ith your boss, the president of the firm. She informs you that she expects you to turn the “people” factor
into a strategic weapon that w ill help the firm beat the competition by having better, more engaged
employees who are more in tune w ith the company’s vision, mission, and goals. This is why you were
hired and w ill make the big bucks! As vice president of a firm, it will be necessary that you understand
the strategic implications of your employees. In your response be sure to address the following items: 1.
Define the human resource planning process, and how will you leverage your employee’s value so the
organization gains a competitive advantage over its competitors. 2. What are the HR management roles
in health care, and what will be the issues and challenges you face in order to insure you are working
strategically in HR? How is HR strategy different from organizational strategy? 3. What will your
employees look and act like in the future? Summarize the expected changes from today’s workforce,
and discuss the changes in the condition of work in the healthcare workplace that may need to take
place. 4. Consider how the article’s determinants of horizontal and vertical fit factor of organizational
culture affects your decision in this situation. Your case study paper should be at least two pages in
length. In your response to the case study, be sure to include academic sources to support your
positions/conclusions. You are required to use the textbook, the Wei article, and at least one additional
outside source. Be sure that your analysis is highly relevant, thorough, and remains on topic. Accuracy

and concise with solid sentence structure and should be free of grammar, punctuation, and spelling
