Part 1 Chapter 4 What are the national      trends growing in many countries?       What are the ramifications in the international populations? Chapter 5 What are the implications of Diversity of Gender, Disability, and      Sexual Orientation?  Why should your      company or you care about this topic?       Explain Part 2 DISCUSSION FORUM AND RESPOND TO TWO CLASSMATE  What is your definition of prejudice and discrimination?  Give examples POST 1 When a person is biased against another from a different background with no actual experience is prejudice. Prejudice does not necessarily apply to race, gender, or sexual orientation, but is often negative and baseless. Prejudice can also apply to social status and patriotism. A most recent event, the 2020 election is an example. Prejudice is often silent in my workplace. We have a strict code of ethics. However, stereotypes are unavoidable and occur frequently. I have one example from work. Each day a woman from facilities would come by to clean the area and take out the trash. Some employees were quite rude while some acted as if she did not exist. Finally, one day I said, ‘Her name is Ann, and she likes to travel’. It was unfortunate how prejudiced the employees were. Discrimination differs because it goes beyond prejudice and can be classified as institutional or individual. Discrimination is the unfair treatment of people with different personal characteristics like race, gender, age, or sexual orientation (Barak, 2018). Discrimination can come in different forms. Discrimination can include jokes about someone’s personal characteristics. Another is paying a lower wage for a woman doing similar work as a man. Discrimination can also occur during the hiring process, asking if the individual is a parent or disabilities. A significant difference between prejudice and discrimination in the workplace is that antidiscrimination laws apply. Organizations that do not apply are subject to lawsuits, regulation fees, and a tarnished brand. Chapter 5: Socioeconomic Transitions: The New Realities of the Global Workforce Worker Migration • Migrations tend to be geographically and occupationally patterned. • European Union (EU) countries—traditionally immigrant receivers; in these countries the proportion of foreign or foreign—born workers has grown Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 2 Worker Migration • Former Communist economies of Eastern Europe—beginning to diversify workplaces due to immigration Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 3 Worker Migration • The Gulf States—international worker migration includes those with very low and very high skill levels and with ethnic and cultural diversity • Central America (e.g. Mexico) and the Caribbean—a major source of worker migrants, particularly to the United States Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 4 Occupational Diversity • Two trends dominate the role of immigrant workers in national economies, with different effects on workplace diversity Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 5 Occupational Diversity • Trend #1: Advanced economies are experiencing a need for workers to perform unskilled tasks (70% of recent migrant flows according to the World Bank). • Impact: This increases the overall diversity of the workforce in the receiving country, but not necessarily the diversity of its workplaces. Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 6 Occupational Diversity • Trend #2: Highly skilled people from developing countries often migrate in search of better opportunities than their home economies can offer. • Impact: This migration spreads workforce diversity to a variety of workplaces in receiving countries. Yet migrant workers are often completely disenfranchised. Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 7 Occupational Diversity • Whether high or low skilled, large numbers of migrants work abroad for a limited period and then return home Circular Migration Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 8 Migration of Employers Globalization and liberalized world markets Need for jobs in developing countries Multinational firms Skilled and unskilled workers willing to work for low wages Employers export capital to reduce labor costs Economic gains and new markets in developing countries Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 Loss of jobs in developed countries 9 Migration of Employers Branches and subsidiaries in other countries Tensions between the foreign management and local employees Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 10 Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) • Defined: the net amount of investment by nonresidents in enterprises in which nonresidents exercise significant management control Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 11 Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) • It’s a useful measurement because it is directly tied to production • FDI’s span virtually all countries and economic activities Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 12 FDI • FDI flows intensify among developing countries in the global South • FDI can support the development of the host economy • Bhopal Disaster Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 13 Implications for Gender, Disability, and Sexual Orientation Diversity • Employee and Employer migration imports cultural dispositions • Sexual orientation diversity • Infosys Technologies Limited sexual harassment litigation Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 14 Implications for Diversity • Managing all these forms of diversity requires an understanding of cultural differences • What can managers do? — Where migrant workers are involved, employers need to effectively communicate the host country’s workplace norms. — Where migrant employers are involved, managers may have to address multiple constituencies, at home as well as in the host country. Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 15 Diversity Management • The voluntary organizational actions that are designed to create greater inclusion of employees from various backgrounds into the formal and informal organizational structures through deliberate policies and programs Educational Trends and Workforce Diversity • In the developed regions, secondary education has become virtually universal for both men and women. Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 17 Educational Trends and Workforce Diversity • Enrollment rates in secondary education are increasing in developing countries, although more slowly for women than for men. • Enrollment in higher education is also increasing around the world. Mor Barak, Managing Diversity. SAGE Publications, 2017 18 Educational Trends and Workforce Diversity • In developed regions, highly educated immigrants have lower employment rates then similarly educated natives. • In some of these developed regions, immigrants with lower levels of education have higher employment rates than similarly situated natives. • May stem from strong demand for low-skilled workers.

MLA In-Text Citations: The Basics

Guidelines for referring to the works of others in your text using MLA style are covered throughout the MLA Handbook and in chapter 7 of the MLA Style Manual. Both books provide extensive examples, so it’s a good idea to consult them if you want to become even more familiar with MLA guidelines or if you have a particular reference question.

BASIC IN-TEXT CITATION RULES

In MLA Style, referring to the works of others in your text is done using parenthetical citations. This method involves providing relevant source information in parentheses whenever a sentence uses a quotation or paraphrase. Usually, the simplest way to do this is to put all of the source information in parentheses at the end of the sentence (i.e., just before the period). However, as the examples below will illustrate, there are situations where it makes sense to put the parenthetical elsewhere in the sentence, or even to leave information out.

General Guidelines

• The source information required in a parenthetical citation depends (1) upon the source medium (e.g. print, web, DVD) and (2) upon the source’s entry on the Works Cited page.
• Any source information that you provide in-text must correspond to the source information on the Works Cited page. More specifically, whatever signal word or phrase you provide to your readers in the text must be the first thing that appears on the left-hand margin of the corresponding entry on the Works Cited page.

IN-TEXT CITATIONS: AUTHOR-PAGE STYLE

MLA format follows the author-page method of in-text citation. This means that the author’s last name and the page number(s) from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken must appear in the text, and a complete reference should appear on your Works Cited page. The author’s name may appear either in the sentence itself or in parentheses following the quotation or paraphrase, but the page number(s) should always appear in the parentheses, not in the text of your sentence. For example:

Wordsworth stated that Romantic poetry was marked by a “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (263).

Romantic poetry is characterized by the “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (Wordsworth 263).

Wordsworth extensively explored the role of emotion in the creative process (263).

Both citations in the examples above, (263) and (Wordsworth 263), tell readers that the information in the sentence can be located on page 263 of a work by an author named Wordsworth. If readers want more information about this source, they can turn to the Works Cited page, where, under the name of Wordsworth, they would find the following information:

Wordsworth, William. Lyrical Ballads. Oxford UP, 1967.

IN-TEXT CITATIONS FOR PRINT SOURCES WITH KNOWN AUTHOR

For print sources like books, magazines, scholarly journal articles, and newspapers, provide a signal word or phrase (usually the author’s last name) and a page number. If you provide the signal word/phrase in the sentence, you do not need to include it in the parenthetical citation.

Human beings have been described by Kenneth Burke as “symbol-using animals” (3).

Human beings have been described as “symbol-using animals” (Burke 3).

These examples must correspond to an entry that begins with Burke, which will be the first thing that appears on the left-hand margin of an entry on the Works Cited page:

Burke, Kenneth. Language as Symbolic Action: Essays on Life, Literature, and Method. University of California Press, 1966.
