Assignment 1: Discussion—Laws that Drive Policies, Procedures, and Practices

HR laws—federal, state, and local—drive HR policies, procedures, and practices. This assignment will focus on HR laws. The legal environment greatly influences HR practice.

Using the Argosy University online library resources and applicable government Web sites, conduct research in HR laws that drive HR policies, procedures, and practices.

Then, respond to the following:

• What are some HR laws that organizations can use to develop and implement policies, procedures, and practices?
• Name and describe at least three laws that would drive policies, procedures, and practices.

Support your positions with references from required readings or from other academic sources.

Write your initial response in a minimum of 300 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
