Government Sample Issue Resolution
|
The following is a hypothetical designed to demonstrate the JustUs® process; any reference
to real life names and events is purely coincidental.
Discrimination:
"Jill" has been with the city for two years and there had been no problems in the beginning.
She had good performance reviews and earned every merit pay increase available in her position.
She began experiencing problems after she brought her spouse to the company picnic. Jill is white,
while her spouse is black. Since that time, she has been reprimanded for insignificant issues and
for things she claims are the fault of other workers. Now, she has been denied a merit pay increase
because of these incidents.
An investigation revealed this supervisor was in fact treating her different from other employees
and holding her to more strict requirements. JustUs® recommended Jill be given the merit pay increase
and the supervisor be sent to diversity training.
In this instance, failing to properly or adequately address the problem may have left the involved
employee feeling unhappy and unproductive. Without clear answers, she may have considered taking
some action that could have exposed the city to the risk of bad publicity or litigation, whether
merited or not. By having JustUs® the issues were able to be addressed in a timely, cost-effective
manner that ultimately improved the organization’s bottom line.
