    The state at which the Anderson Cost Club store is located is a right-to-work state, in which people own the right to determine upon joining or financially substantiating a union. This has no relationship with the reasons involved in terminating employees from Cost Club. This termination was done by the GM of the store as an action preceding the process of downsizing. Despite this being a valid reason, the GM was unsuccessful in documenting this information during the termination and stated that he trusted that the restriction to fire employees was unavailable. However, this argument is not legitimate. If the store is located in an at-will state, then the employer holds the right to terminate an employee, unless the involvement of any contract, even without any lawful reason. Even in this case, it is…

    Cost Club’s Anderson store is located in a right-to-work state, therefore the general manager does not have to provide a reason for the termination of the employees that he discharged as part of his downsizing initiatives. Although the downsizing is legally acceptable and does not violate the WARN Act for mass layoffs, according to the information presented, the general manager should make sure that he has the proper documentation on file to support the need to downsize since he stated downsizing as the reason for the termination.

    Costco: Join the Club

    Costco’s culture is one where the customer and employee come first. Customers enjoy a 15% markup where most retail stores increase by as much as 40%. Costco accepts returns sold items without a receipt and a “no questions” policy on the return. For the employee, Costco offers generous salary and health benefits, which critics pursue Costco to cut in order to reduce labor costs. Costco’s culture is rich and successful because it is supported by five “axioms”, the company’s adopted values, which is the second layer of organizational culture:…

    The legal issue in this case was whether Reeves was subjected to harassment based on her sex and whether the harassment was sufficiently severe or pervasive to be actionable. The court reversed the lower court’s grant of summary judgment to C.H. Robinson, holding that “sex specific” language satisfies the “based on sex” element even when the language does not target the plaintiff.…
