The Labor Market Most firms require labor to produce output. The number of workers to hire is often an important decision of the firm because it affects the costs and profits of the firm. Write a 2- to 3-page paper on the following issues: 1. Suppose you are the manager of the firm. What advice would you give the owners to raise the productivity of its labor? Be specific in your proposal. 2. What if the government raised the minimum wage. How would this policy effect your firm? 3. Use the readings from the background page. In general, do you think the government should intervene in the market? SLP Assignment Expectations Use concepts from the modular background readings as well as any good-quality resources you can find. Please be sure to cite all sources within the text and a reference list at the end of the paper. Length: 2–3 pages double-spaced and typed. The following items will be assessed in particular: • Your ability to examine the labor market in a particular firm. • Some in-text references to the modular background readings (APA formatting not required). • The essay should address each element of the assignment. Remember to support your answers with solid references.
