Answer to #1

Providing evidence that a black employee who had three unexcused absences was fired whereas a white employee with the same number of unexcused absences was not is enough to establish a mixed motives case. The Supreme Court has ruled that plaintiffs do not need a smoking gun or direct evidence in showing a protected characteristic to be a motivating factor but can rely on circumstantial evidence that does not have to be linked directly to the employment decision.

Answer to #2

According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, a satisfied need no longer creates tension and therefore doesn't motivate. Maslow proposes that within every human being there exists a hierarchy of five needs: Physiological, Safety, Social, Esteem, and Self-actualization.

Physiological includes hunger, thirst, shelter, sex, and other bodily needs. Safety includes security and protection from physical and emotional harm. Social includes affection, a sense of belonging, acceptance, and friendshi

Answer to #5

Quota staffing systems establish specific requirements that certain percentages of disadvantaged groups be hired to equalize their proportional representation in the company's workforce with their proportions in the job and organization's relevant labor market. The size and location of an organization's relevant labor market depends on the nature of the job. As an illustration, for faculty positions, the relevant labor market is usually defined as national. For management and professional positions, the relevant labor market is generally defined as regional. For staff and laborer positions, the relevant labor market is usually defined as local.

The law does not require quotas or even preferential treatment. Employers are not required to have proportional representation in their workforce, but they are more open to lawsuits if they do not. Although affirmative action, preferential treatment, and quotas are not required by law, they are not prohibited either. Quotas have been found to be illegal in a number of courts cases so there are limitations on their features and usage. A quota is most often used as a court-imposed remedy for past discrimination or as part of a voluntary affirmative action plan.
