One of our workers had a breakdown during the work day and had to be hospitalized. In the hospital, he told the doctor that he works 45 hours a week and is barely able to support his wife, children, and in-laws. The doctor reported this and somehow the media got a hold of the story. We are now being accused of overworking and underpaying our employees in Bangalore.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 19px; cursor: auto;\">Under India&#8217;s Factories Act, 1948, adults (over 18 years old) cannot work for more than 48 hours a week or more than 9 hours in a day. We thought we were being generous in establishing a 45-hour work week! And is it really our fault if our employee feels he has to support his extended family?<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 19px; cursor: auto;\">I need an action plan for addressing this with the media and then to determine what kind of policies we can put in place to respond ethically and responsibly without overburdening the organization financially.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 19px; cursor: auto;\">I know this is really last-minute, but can you please write up a brief for me by tomorrow morning?<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1rem; margin-left: 0px; font-size: 19px; cursor: auto;\"><b>Instructions:&nbsp;<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; font-size: 18.999998px; cursor: auto;\">Address all three concepts: leadership, motivation and retention, explain&nbsp; the relationship between the three and apply them to the situation given, provide your action plan, and your draft press release.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; font-size: 18.999998px; cursor: auto;\"><b style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">Mechanics:<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0.5em 0px 1em; font-size: 18.999998px; cursor: auto;\"><b style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto;\">We return to a memo format this week.<span style=\"cursor: auto;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/b>Use in-text citations and a reference page of at least 3 academic or professionally credible sources (not Wikipedia or Indeed), preferably from our course material.
