C. Allow disciplinary appeals to be assigned to a peer review panel.
D. Train supervisors to utilize open-door techniques for employee feedback.

receipts and that his company credit card was consequently suspended. He
thinks the consequences were too extreme. This is the best example of which of
the following?
A. Distributive justice
B. Procedural justice
C. Discrimination

offense.

reason
D. Entered into by a formal, written agreement Correct Answer-A.
Contractual rights granted to employees can be entered into formally in writing
using tools such as employment contracts, separation agreements, and
collective bargaining agreements. However, courts have ruled that employee
contractual rights may also be implied in employee handbooks and policies that
create an expectation of continued employment or termination only for cause.
A separation agreement is a type of which of the following?
A. Risk management tool
B. Employment contract
C. Executive retention tool
D. All of the above Correct Answer-D. A separation agreement is a type of
employment contract that spells out the terms and conditions related to
employee or executive termination or separation. More often than not, it
includes some type of severance pay and, by signing the employee, exchanges
the right to sue the employer for a grievance.

C. Write clear policies that are reviewed by a labor attorney prior to
implementation.
D. Obtain signed releases from employees. Correct Answer-C. Federal and
state laws regarding workplace privacy concerns can vary significantly. For this
reason, HR should write clear policies that have been reviewed by the company
attorney prior to engaging in any workplace monitoring efforts.
In the middle of contract negotiations, the union representatives in the room
request a time-out to confer together. They are using which negotiation
technique?
A. Stalling
B. Brainstorming
C. Caucusing
D. Both A and B Correct Answer-C. The practice of caucusing by union
representatives can be used for several reasons. This includes when there may
be a disagreement between the union members that needs to be resolved
outside of the presence of the employer negotiator. It is also an effective tool to
control the pace of negotiations or to take a break if emotions begin to run high
at the bargaining table.

absenteeism, and quantifying the costs of absenteeism can help HR build
response plans to the underlying reasons for attendance issues in the
workplace.
Which of the following is most important for a company evaluating employee
experiences?
A. Consistency
B. Averages
C. Trends
D. Historic comparisons Correct Answer-A. When it comes to the evaluation
