It has been suggested that the use of staffing technology and software is wrong because it dehumanizes the staffing experience, making it nothing but a mechanical process that treats applicants like digital widgets. Evaluate this assertion.
Since there are no standard ways of creating staffing process results and cost metrics, is there a need for some sort of oversight of how these data are calculated, reported, and used within an organization? Explain.
1. What are the advantages of having a centralized staffing function, as opposed to letting each manager be totally responsible for all staffing activities in his or her unit?

3. What would be the advantages and disadvantages of outsourcing the entire staffing system to a vendor?
4. In developing a report on the effectiveness of the staffing process being conducted for entry-level jobs, what factors would you address in such a report and why?
5. How would you try to get individual managers to be more aware of the legal requirements of staffing systems and to take steps to ensure that they themselves engage in legal staffing actions?
1. Determine the yield ratios (offer receivers/applicants, new hires/applicants), time lapse or cycle times (days-to-offer, days-to-start), and retention rates associated with each recruitment source.
2. What is the relative effectiveness of the three sources in terms of yield ratios, cycle times, and retention rates?
3. What are possible reasons for the fact that the three sources differ in their relative effectiveness?

Please work with your classmates to construct a high-quality, extended academic discussion of the following questions. As always in our class, please work together to clarify concepts, explore questions, and analyze specific passages from our excerpt of Mill’s Utilitarianism.
What, according to Mill, is greatest happiness principle? Exactly how does he think that principle can be used to determine whether a proposed course of action would be the right or the wrong thing to do? How easy or hard is to to apply the utilitarian “hedonistic calculus”? Does performing these calculations require us to know exactly what will happen in the future? If not, how can we be confident that we understand what the consequences of a proposed action will be? NOTE: The Meaning of UTILITY British English and American English can look the same but have very different meanings. For Mill, “utility” means “usefulness”–just like if you had a “utility room” or “utility closet” in your home or place or business, that would be where you stored your “useful” things (like brooms, mops, and so forth).
So, when Mill talks about the Principle of Utility, it might help to read it as the “Principle of Usefulness.” The most “useful” ethical decision will be the one that results in the greatest amount of happiness for the majority of the people. And, if we add Bentham’s Hedonic Calculus, the Calculus becomes a sort of “costs and benefits” analysis for ethical decision-making for determing the action which would produce the most useful results for the majority of the people who would be affected by that decision (since that would make them happier).
PL201 Introduction to Philosophy Assignments and Discussions
Allocating Public Health Resources
Imagine that you are standing on the bank of a river and injured people start floating down the river towards you. There is no end to the floating people…they just keep coming and coming. You are alone and you do not have cell service to phone for back up. What do you do? In your discussion post, discuss what type of assistance you would want to provide. Explain where you think it would be best to focus your energy assisting (ie. should you stay where you are and pull people out of the river, or should you go upstream to find out why injured people are ending up in the river?) Determine what proportion of assistance should go to aiding injured people versus preventing the cause of the injuries in the first place. Justify your reasoning for why you would allocate your resources that way. (There is no right or wrong answer to this; it is a matter of determining the priorities between treatment vs. prevention.)
First Guided Response Due on Day 5: Compare your response to that of your classmate. Assess how your classmate’s response would relate to public health issues more broadly. Determine whether your classmate’s justification for allocating resources is appropriate when considering public health issues more broadly. Pose at least one follow-up question to your classmate’s discussion response. Please make sure your questions are open-ended and not one-word response questions to enhance critical thinking skills. Respond to at least two of your classmates.
Second Guided Response Due on Day 7: Students must respond to the questions posed to them.
THIS TUTORIAL INCLUDES TWO ANSWERS FOR THIS DISCUSSION QUESTION TO HELP YOU SCORE BETTER
I need answer for those 20 multiple choices questions for philosophy into ethics:
Question 1 What is David Barash defining when he says, “the total of [living things’] reproductive success through their offspring plus that of their relatives”?
| inclusive fitness | |
| natural selection |
| adaptation by sociable behavior | |
| Darwin’s theory of kin mutation |
Question 2
When discussing whether two individuals will reciprocate altruism, Barash points out three important factors: benefit to the recipient of the act, cost to the altruist of the act, and what?
| Whether the act is against any moral rules. | |
| Whether the act is against the law. |
| Whether the recipient and the altruist are related or not. | |

| Soldiers on both sides would often violate direct orders in refraining from engaging with the enemy. |
| French and German soldiers extended empathy to each other in their exchanges. | |
| Unofficial truces were a kind of reciprocal altruism. |
Question 4
Does Malinowski’s report on “The Kula Ring” confirm the idea of reciprocal altruism?
| No, because the New Guineans who take part in it are possessive, and only want to accumulate the necklaces and bracelets. | |
| No, because the the Kula Ring has actually fragmented New Guinena society. |
| Yes, because the New Guineans sacrifice their youngest child when they receive the wrong kinds of bracelets. | |
| Yes, because the Kula Ring has social, linguistic and cultural benefits beyond the trade in necklaces and bracelets. |
Which of the following ancient sources of ethics teaches “An eye for an eye?”
| Jesus | |
| Hillel |
| The Law of Hammurabi | |
| Confucius |
Question 6
Robert Trivers theorizes that early humans (hominids) evolved reciprocal altruistic behaviors because of their long lifespan and degree of mutual dependence. What do these two factors have in common?
| They are both likely to help hominids survive during glacial periods. | |
| They increase the number of times that hominids interact with each other, thus increasing the likelihood of remembering and reacting to past interactions. |
| They decrease the number of times that hominids interact with each other, thus decreasing the likelihood of remembering and reacting to past interactions. | |
| They make it less likely that hominids will develop a faculty for recognizing each other. |
Question 7
According to Trivers, if an individual is a “gross cheater” in a system of interactions characterized by reciprocal altruism, what is likely to happen to him or her?
| He or she is likely to switch to subtle cheating long before they are found out. | |
| He or she is likely to become the leader of that group. |

Question 8
What is “TIT FOR TAT”?
| A strategy for resolving the Prisoner’s Dilemma | |
| A strategy that involves “mirroring” whatever a game opponent did on their last move. |
| A game strategy that involves a pattern of 5 cooperations followed by 3 defections. | |
| Both A and B above. |
Hume’s “naturalistic fallacy” is the idea that
| …it is always wrong to derive an “ought” statement from a statement describing what “is” the case. | |
| …it is always wrong to derive a descriptive statement about what “is” the case from what we believe “ought” to be the case. |
| …morality is based purely on sentiments and feelings. | |
| …morality is based purely on rational calculations. |
What is Kant referring to when he says, “[it] is not good because of what it effects or accomplishes or because of its adequacy to achieve some proposed end; it is good only because of its willing, i.e. it is good of itself.”
| The moral sense. | |
| The moral emotions. |
| The good will. | |
| Duty. |
Question 11
Hume, like Rousseau, thinks that our capacity for sympathy is basic to our moral life. According to Kant, when we perform our obligations because we are sympathetic to others, which of the following is true?
| He agrees with Hume and Rousseau that we are good to act from sympathy. | |
| Our actions have derivative (partial) moral worth. |
| Our actions have no moral worth whatsoever. | |
| We have acted in a rational way. |
By calling certain principles of ethics “axioms,” utilitarian Henry Sidgwick wants to imply that they are…
| …false. | |
| …absolutely obligatory. |
| …self-evident to all. | |
| …applicable only to one’s own culture. |
Edward Westermarck thinks that, by and large, most of us in a givern society agree on most moral truths. Where there is difference, he says, there is…
| …a difference in knowledge of relevant facts. | |
| …a difference in how “reflective” some people are versus others. |
| …a difference in emotional constitution. | |
| all of the above. |
Question 14
Does reason play a common-sense role in ethics? Thomas Nagel believes that when someone injures us or steals from us, more than our feelings are hurt. What does he believe, beyond this?
| That the person who injured or stole from us had a reason not to do what they did. | |
| That the person who injured or stole from us had no reason to do what they did. |
| That the person who injured or stole from us mistakenly thought they were following their duty, as in Kant’s view. | |
| That the person who injured or stole from us was merely acting out of emotional hysteria. |
Virginia Held believes that hitching moral truth to reason is basically a man’s invention. What, instead, does she favor as the bases for a feminist ethic?
| Emotion and embodied feeling. | |
| Women’s history. |
| Laws favoring womens’ control of their own bodies. | |
| She has no such bases; she only makes a criticism of “male-biased” ethics. |
What phenomenon in evolutionary ethics does Robert Trivers spend his time documenting?
| Sex selection | |
| Kin altruism |
| Reciprocal altruism | |
| Incest taboos |
What phenomenon in sexual ethics is Donald Symons describing in this passage? “It seems likely that parents (and perhaps other elder kin) have systematically attempted to inculcate one set of sexual attitudes in their daughters and another in their sons, since copulation exposes males and females to very different risks.”
| The sexual double standard | |
| Male jealousy |
| The female attitude toward adultery | |
| Incest taboos |
Who is the author of the following text? “”Since reason alone can never produce any action, or give rise to volition, I infer, that the same faculty is as incapable of preventing volition, or of disputing the preference with any passion or emotion. This consequence is necessary.”
| Hume | |
| Sartre |
| Kant | |
| Westermarck |
Who is the author of the following text? “The presumed objectivity of moral judgments thus being a chimera, there can be no moral truth in the sense in which this term is generally understood. The ultimate reason for this is, that the moral concepts are based upon emotions, and that the contents of an emotion fall entirely outside the category of truth.”
| Sidgwick | |
| Kant |
| Held | |
| Westermarck |
Who offers us this story to illustrate a point about morality? “I will refer to a pupil of mine, who sought me out in the following circumstances. His father was quarreling with his mother and was also inclined to be a ‘collaborator’; his elder brother had been killed in the German offensive of 1940 and this young man, with a sentiment somewhat primitive but generous, burned to avenge him. His mother was living with him, deeply afflicted by the semi-treason of his father and by the death of her eldest son, and her one consolation was in this young man. But he, at this moment, had the choice between going to England to join the Free French Forces or of staying near his mother and helping her to live.”
| Held | |
| Hume |
| Sartre | |
| Kant |
