One of the main purposes of minimum wage legislation is to protect non-unionized workers in jobs requiring minimal skill levels. A minimum wage creates a "floor" above which employees or their unions may negotiate with the management for higher pay rates. In1970, Ontario's minimum wage was set at $1.50 per hour. On January 1, 2018, the minimum wage rate in Ontario increased to $14 dollars per hour and was promised to rise to $15 dollars per hour thereafter. It is estimated that 10% of the provinces workforce is paid the minimum wage rate.

In early 2018, media outlets reported protestsThat occurred at various Tim Horton's outlets in OntarioOver action by franchise owners to deal with rising labor costs. Union officials noted Employee accounts of losing paidBreaks and having to buy their own uniforms after the new minimum wage rates went into effect. The Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) Called for a National Day of Action in January 2018, saying that it was mobilizing concerned members of the labour movement, including the "Fight for $15," the Canadian Labour Congress and labour federations across Canada, to protest such actions in response to minimum wage increases.  

Protest against actions taken by Tim Horton's and many of its franchisees were held in over 20 Ontario communities with the support of the Ontario Public Service Employees Union, Labour councils and other action-based worker agencies. Similar protest occurred in British Columbia, Nova Scotia and Saskatchewan.

Over 20 representatives from various labor councils gathered at a Tim Horton's location in Windsor, Ontario to protest. An OFL representative stated that she and other union representatives were there to show the workers that the labour movement and the community where there to support them and make sure they were treated with respect. Another union leader said if there was a union steward present in such a situation, steps would have been taken to resolve employee concerns. Many of the workers felt afraid to raise their concerns with management due to a fear of being fired.

There was no report of how many union organizers might have been at these rallies trying to gain support among the employees to join a union.

As an HR leader at Tim Horton's corporate office, what steps would you suggest to senior management to successfully handle this situation and hopefully avoid the employees joining a union?

You have been appointed to the Governor’s Emergency Management Team and have been placed in charge of creating a Threat Assessment Report. A Category 4 hurricane is moving toward the state, and your city is in the direct line. The storm will make landfall within 72 hours. The Emergency Management Team has been tasked with preparing the city for this event.

A year ago, the city was hit with what has been called the “Thousand Year Flood.” During the flood, the three rivers that surround the city crested, causing major flooding citywide. Loss of life was also high because of the suddenness of the storm. Damage to property was significant, and the projected rainfall expected from this hurricane will be comparable. Fortunately, you have three days to prepare.

Most media and technology equipment was knocked out during the last storm, so information was hard to come by, which added to the loss of life and damage. Some of that has been improved, and it is not expected to be as much of a problem, but, part of your task is to come up with a backup plan for getting information out to the public before, during, and immediately after the storm.

Ramsey Motors manufacturers water (hydrogen) powered automobiles. The company committed to producing 500,000 vehicles last year, but ended up only manufacturing half of that. The issue is with a part that splits water into hydrogen and oxygen in a process known as electrolysis. The part was supposed to be installed using an automated process, but the machines are having trouble doing this, so factory workers have to do it manually on the assembly line, causing delays. Use the balanced scorecard to evaluate this situation. Which perspective is most closely related to these manufacturing issues? Define the perspective and explain how it can be used to measure Ramsey’s performance.
