    Question.no.1 Discuss what a manager should do in each of the two Michigan cases. Answer: Office Equipment repair technician Although it is risky but the manager should give him a second chance, because by the nature of job (i.e. job of technician) it does not seem that he would be in direct contact with potential victims.

It is also possible that other organizations might have potential victims in their equipment area. If the technician does something wrong, the image of the employer may get harmed. The manager should test the employee’s future intentions through a question answer session, and if he appears to be honest and responsible about his future actions, then he should be give him a second chance.

    The International Civil Service Commission (ICSC) adopted in 2000 a Framework for Human Resources Management. It was developed by members of ICSC and its secretariat, representatives of the organizations of the United Nations common system and representatives of the staff. The purpose of the Framework is to enable the organizations of the United Nations common system to manage their human resources effectively. The philosophy underlying it is grounded in the principles emanating from the provisions of the United Nations Charter, namely, the independence of the international civil service and the need for the organizations to recruit staff with the highest standards of efficiency, competence and integrity, with due regard to the importance of recruiting the staff on as wide a geographical basis as possible and to the equal participation of men and women in the work of the organizations. An overriding concern of human resources managers in the common system is to link human resources management with organizational goals, taking into account the external and internal forces relevant to human resources management. The Framework includes a definition of organizational design and its impact on the human resources management environment. It identifies the diverse yet interrelated elements which make up human resources management in the common system. It has six major components, some of which have a number of sub-components. Definitions, identification of core/non-core elements, underlying principles and the linkages between components are provided for the components and sub-components. The Framework provides the organizations with a holistic conceptual base from which to take action in one or more areas of human resources management reform. As such, it can be used to form the basis of the organizations’ future work on human resources policies and procedures. Mohsen Bel Hadj…
