Part B: Work-Life Balance in the Workplace (30 marks)
Continuing from Assignments 4 and 5, you have now identified a suitable candidate for your position. However, the candidate is concerned about entering a workplace that does not encourage a work-life balance and has asked for assurances that your organization has policies and programs in place that will take care of this. You have decided to present him or her with a report on the status of work-life balance in your workplace. Using the course material and any other sources of information, develop a work-life balance handbook. Justify why the services and programs you have included in your handbook are ideal.

Your handbook should be a maximum of three pages or approximately 750 words.

Read the case incident on pages 373 of your textbook entitled “Do it yourself, Enviro-Man” and answer the following three questions:

What errors did Bill make when disciplining Ken?
What should Bill say to the other employees who witnessed this incident?
What steps do you recommend Bill take when Ken returns from his suspension?
