    Case: 2 – DSG law firm
    DSG law firm

    1-problem definition
    the problem here in this case study is that there is a discrimination in the hiring process from
    the beginning of the firm as they don’t hire or keep Hispanic employees. For a variety of
    reasons as mentioned in the case

    2-Justification of the Problem


    the cause of the problem in this case is that from the beginning of the DSG firm they
    discriminate between employees and each other as they don’t hire or keep Hispanic people,
    this creates a vision in mind of employees that nationality and race and language could make a
    difference in the hiring and keeping process in the firm despite of the capabilities and
    qualifications of the hired person, and this is appeared in reality when the firm hired prominent
    Hispanic lawyer, Francisco Jauregui all of other employees just recognize that he is Hispanic and
    neglect his capabilities and prominent qualifications.
    And so, on any action will be taken by the firm manager or partner with Hispanic background
    will recognized by employees that it is a favored from the Hispanic community to one of its
    members.
    And a proof for this opinion that Charles Gardner who is non-Hispanic give an exception for
    Francisco Jauregui to have base salary higher than any other DSG employee as Francisco have a
    prominent capability not because he is Spanish.

    3-List of Alternatives

    1- Put down a hiring procedures and regulation list that include the features that
    should be present in new prospected employees

    2- Create a new HR department in the firm that will be responsible for the hiring
    process and employees’ salaries and benefits

    3- Assign a committee which will be responsible for assigning cases and tasks to the
    team of the employees as per their capabilities and qualifications
    4-Evaluate Alternatives

     regarding the first alternative it would be the most effective and efficient one as the
    procedures and regulation list will be like the road map for the firm in the process of
    hiring new employees whatever who will be the manager of the firm as the hiring will be
    based on rules and procedures not people personal opinions, also as these procedures
    are available and applied on all prospected employees any old employee of the firm can
    be sure that there is no discrimination in the hiring process.

     regarding the second alternative it will be moderate in its power to solve the problem as
    all companies and entities have a HR department and this is correct and essential part of
    any company and entity is to have a HR department but in our case the old employees
    will object on the selection of the members of the Hr department and will not trust their
    choices and they will claim that there will be discrimination among their selections as
    from the beginning they don’t trust their managers choices and decisions

     Regarding alternative three I can see that this alternative would be some how effective
    as the assigning process of tasks and cases to the employees of the firm will be based on
    a committee choice not one person and this some how will give employees confident
    that there is no discrimination happened in the assigning process, but as alternative 2
    the problem will be that the employees will object on the selection of the committee
    members but to avoid this we can make a elections for the choice of the committee
    members.

    5- Recommendations

    I recommend alternative 1 and alternative 3 for this case.
