    **INTRODUCTION**
    Structuring and communicating a total compensation package that meets regulatory requirements and the needs of a global workforce requires a delicate balancing act between what is required and what will contribute to an effective relationship between employer, employee, and the community or country in which the company operates. Communicating benefits programs to employees can be as important as the benefits themselves. Knowing how to leverage all available compensation options is a necessary skill for any HR professional.
    ***PREPARATION**
    Research compensation and benefits for either Java Corp or an organization of your choice. A minimum of four resources are required to support your work.
    ***SCENARIO***
    For this assessment, choose either option 1 or 2. You do not need to do both. You will apply one of these scenarios in the instructions below. Both options will be graded using the same scoring guide.
    Option 1
    You are the new HR manager for Java Corp, a domestic cold coffee and tea company. Java Corp is opening a new office in London, England. You are planning on filling one executive level position with a U.S. citizen. In the scenario, the employee filling the role can either be an existing employee or a new hire. The term of the initial assignment is two years. Design a compensation package for this position as the new HR manager.
    Option 2
    Choose an organization to use for this assessment. It can be where you are currently employed or a company with which you are familiar. It must be an organization that is researchable, as you will need to gather and analyze information to complete the assessment. You may use the same organization you have used in past assessments.
    If you choose the organization where you are currently employed, please keep in mind that the analyses you make must be based on facts that can be documented rather than your personal opinion as an employee.
    Research the compensation and benefits of the chosen organization. The company is opening a new branch office in London, England. You are planning on filling one executive-level position with a U.S. citizen. This employee can be a newly hired or an existing employee. The term of the initial assignment is two years. You are the new HR manager and must design a compensation package for this position.
    ***INSTRUCTIONS/REQUIREMENTS***
    Create a compensation package for a new expatriate position. Include the following:
    Pay or Salary
    In this part:
    Describe key factors and decisions to make regarding base pay.
    Specifically, discuss how base pay would be determined, what factors influence base pay, and in what way.
    Note: You do not need to indicate exact salary figures for this assessment.
    Analyze pay considerations specific to expatriate positions.
    Consider foreign service premiums, incentive pay, hardship allowance, mobility premium, and the like.
    Benefits
    In this part:
    Analyze legally required benefits for an employee.
    Including social security, Medicare, federal and state unemployment, and worker’s compensation.
    Also, discuss any legally required benefits that may be different in England compared to the United States.
    Analyze standard benefit offerings.
    Include health insurance, paid time off, employee assistance programs, et cetera.
    Discuss factors that might influence these offerings such as company size, role of the employee, company location, et cetera.
    Analyze the appropriateness of offering additional benefits or resources to employees facing an overseas work assignment that would ease their transition.
    These types of benefits could include relocation assistance, home leave reimbursement, spousal support for finding work, and cultural or language training, among others.
    Additional Requirements
    Your assessment should also meet the following requirements:
    Length: 4-5 typed, double-spaced pages, plus a reference page.
    Written communication: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly and professional. Your writing should be:
    Concise and logically organized.
    Free of errors in grammar and mechanics.
    Validation and support: Use a minimum of four relevant and credible scholarly or professional resources such as the Wall Street Journal to support your work.
    APA format: Format all citations and references in accordance with current APA guidelines.

    By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment scoring guide criteria.
    Competency 1: Apply human resource strategies to business needs.
    Analyze the appropriateness of offering additional benefits and resources for expatriate employees.

    **Ensure the essay is written using the DISTINGUISHED scoring guide**

  • “Convergence and Divergence: Solving Series and Sequences”

    My assignments include different types of problems related to series and sequences. I need to know if they converge or diverge, and I also need the steps on how I reached the answer based on what I’ve learned in class. I have example notes from my class.

  • “Exploring Earth’s History: Uncovering the Contributions of James Hutton”

    For this project, you will choose one of the topics listed below and present the information you find about that topic. The topics are divided into 3 groups (People, Fossil Deposits, and Rock Units/Events). You only need to pick one topic to present, but it can be from any group. Whatever form your project takes, you will submit it either as attachments through Canvas or you can email the files to me. For essays, make sure it is at least one page, single-spaced, with at least four references including sources less than 1 year old.
    Do some exploratory research before you settle on a topic. I want you to choose something that interests you and that you really want to learn more about. Here are some questions you might consider as you complete this project. Use these as a guide only: you will not be graded explicitly on whether or not you address any or none of these in your presentation. Let your curiosity and interest in the topic lead you to discover more things about it than those ideas given below.
    What was this person’s upbringing? Where were they born and where did they live? What about schooling and family (or lack thereof)? What attributes made this person good at what they did? What was their contribution to science? Perhaps most importantly, what cultural or societal conditions allowed this person to either thrive or be held back from their potential?
    Where are these fossil deposits located (specifically), how old are they, and what fossil organisms do they preserve? Why are these organisms important for paleontology and/or geology? How are these organisms preserved in these localities? What are some recent discoveries that have been made in these areas in the last few years? Who discovered these deposits and what has been their history (conservation, protection, exploitation, etc.) since they were discovered?
    What is the impact that these rock units/events have had on earth history, either geological or biological? Where are they located and what has been the history of study for these topics. How have these studies increase our understanding of earth history? What are some of the unanswered questions surrounding these events, places, or ideas?
