Model

You are a former certified education administrator who departed your  former position to become the owner of a small, in-home day care  consisting of you and a part-time assistant where you care for children  from age three (3) to age ten (10). Over the course of time, your  demographic population has increased due to significant business growth  that has resulted in many families relocating to your area. With more  businesses projected to move to the area and the building of new housing  developments, it is projected that this growth could be long term.

You have decided that this is a good opportunity to expand your day  care business as you have received many inquiries for childcare. In  order to comply with your home state regulations, you will require a  larger facility and will need to hire additional staff in order to  sustain the larger demand for day care. This staff will consist of five  (5) Certified Day Care Professionals, one (1) Registered Nurse  Professional, five (5) After-School Assistants, and one (1) Office  Support Paraprofessional. You have secured approval for a bank loan and  qualify for future loans for future expansion if your current endeavor  is successful. Meanwhile, the state in which you operate has requested  that you provide a staffing plan before it will issue licensure for your  expanded capacity.

Assignment:

Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:

1. Identify two (2) types of staffing models that could apply to your  chosen scenario and determine which model would be best suited for  efficiency, productivity, and possible future growth. Examine the  significant effect of each identified staffing model on processes that  may be occurring within the organization (e.g., outsourcing, contingent  workers, consulting firms, etc.). 
2. Predict the major potential legal issues that you may encounter  when establishing equal employment opportunities and diversity within  the workplace while still aiming to acquire employees with the needed  certifications and credentials. Next, explain the method of achieving  transparency within your staffing model. Justify your response. 
3. Specify three (3) tasks that you need to perform to identify,  analyze, and develop job requirements and task statements that you will  include in formalized job descriptions. Next, predict the frequency with  which you would need to review and adjust these job descriptions as  your company progresses. Provide a rationale for your response. 
4. Describe three (3) methods to deal with high employee turnover  and the availability of employees with required knowledge, skills, or  abilities. Next, describe the primary manner in which the described  succession-planning methods would be beneficial to your company. Justify  your response. 
5. Format: 
   • Double space, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.
