Review the assigned article for this week, Buerhaus, P. I. (2010). Healthcare payment reform: Implications for nurses. Nursing Economics, 28(1), 49–54.

An emerging political issue is to change the way healthcare providers are compensated to control healthcare spending. Nurses are the largest group of healthcare providers and can make the greatest impact on the healthcare system. Compare and contrast two advantages versus the disadvantages of the policy to disentangle nursing costs from the patient room charges and/or organization charges. How can this policy affect your policy priority? Is there evidence?

Your answer should be at least 350 words.

PART III: MODEL ANSWER
The following is an answer submitted by a student for full credit on a similar assignment to the critical thinking questions above.

1. Briefly summarize Lilly Ledbetter’s experience with workplace discrimination.

In 1979, Lilly Ledbetter began working at the Goodyear tire plant in Gadsden, Alabama. She found out, after working for the company for 20 years, that she had been receiving less pay than men. Being a supervisor, she was paid much less than other male counterparts, and even some of those who ranked below her.

2. Why is this story relevant to a course on business law?

The story is relevant to a course on business law because it is against the law for businesses to discriminate against employees on the basis of their sex. Such prohibition is outlined under the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Specifically, Title VII prohibits employers with more than fifteen employees to discriminate employees based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin.

It is important for business students to know that in workplace, it is against the law to discriminate someone when they are recruiting new employees or interacting with other co-workers. Students should also know the rights not to be discriminated against.

3. Today, is equal pay for equal work a reality in the United States?

I would say that equal pay for equal work is a reality in the United States. However, I am sure there are still cases across the country where you will hear inequality of pay at work.

I think it is already a reality because it is in our law in the Civil Rights Act, that it is illegal to discriminate against someone on the basis of their race, color, religion, sex, and national origin. The Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act allows equal-pay lawsuit to have the 180-day filing deadline extended to the latest paycheck. Nowadays, wherever there is injustice in related to equal-pay, it can be resolved by our legal system.

4. What other forms of discrimination occur in the workplace? Give at least one specific example from a news report or other quotable source.

Discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex and national origin exists in workplace. Also exists is pregnancy discrimination. Employers may refuse to hire a woman because she is pregnant or is considering becoming pregnant. The Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978 addresses such issues. It amended Title VII to make it illegal to discriminate on the basis of pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. A female worker who becomes pregnant is entitled to work as long as she can perform her tasks, and her job must be held open for her while she is on maternity leave.

In the case Peggy Young vs UPS, Young took on a part-time role with UPS as a truck driver, picking up air shipments. Four years later, she took a leave of absence to receive in vitro fertilization. When she became pregnant and a midwife instructed her not to lift packages over 20 pounds, Young asked to return to UPS to do either light duty or her regular job as a truck driver, which seldom required her to lift heavy boxes. Her manager told her that UPS offered light duty to workers who sustained on-the-job injuries, employees with ailments covered by the Americans With Disabilities Act, and those who had lost Department of Transportation certification because of physical ailments; not—the manager said—to pregnant workers.

Young won the case in March 2015. The court ruled that Young had the right to sue UPS for pregnancy discrimination. The court did not issue a rigid rule that will dictate when an employer must make accommodations for a pregnant worker. Instead, Justice Breyer left a bit of wiggle room. He wrote, in essence, that if an employer is going to not accommodate a pregnant woman while accommodating other employees “similar in their ability or inability to work,” the employer must have a “legitimate, non-discriminatory reason” for doing so.

Writing Assignment: Write an introspective analysis essay about your background in writing formal essays and research papers. If you have very little background in writing formal essays, your essay will be about that. “Introspective” means looking inward or reflecting. “Analysis” means taking apart your writing history and experience to examine the parts of it to make sense of your present level of writing skills. “Essay” means using words to “go forth” in thinking. See a partially graded, real student paper written for this same online class–“KevinMillerReview of LaToyaJohnson” paper above.

Create a running head and running page number. This is your last name and a running page number in the upper right-hand margin of the paper. I give instructions for how to do this in the Formatting Checklist in the syllabus. Be sure to format it with Times New Roman 12 pt. font and to not have any decorative lines with it. See below my answer to the question “What if I Don’t Have Microsoft Word?” for how to format a running head.
Type the top matter: After the running head and page number in the upper margin of your paper, begin your paper this way (adopt it for the particulars of each course and assignment and date due):
Thomas Vasquez
Professor Kevin Miller
ENG1270EOL43: Advanced English Composition
Module 1: Introspective Essay
Indiana Tech
10 May 2014
Create a two-part title. Begin with a two-part title (see the Formatting Checklist section on titles for instructions on this). Since this is a personal reflection paper, use the word “My” or “Me” or “I” in the title.
Form a four-step introduction paragraph. Follow the title with a four-step introductory paragraph (see the Formatting Checklist for instructions on this). Note that this is ONE paragraph with four steps in it:
1. Attention step: The paragraph must start with a short description of a moment in your life related to writing. This anecdote may be as short as three sentences, but don’t let it run more than six sentences in length. Perhaps describe something you once wrote in a school setting, whether recently or years ago in school as a child. Use the word “I” in writing this opening anecdote.
2. Topic-orientation step: The next sentence after attention step above (the example) is the topic-orientation step/sentence. Since the assignment is about writing formal essays, say something here in one sentence about that. As an example, it might read something like this: This experience I had in fifth grade with writing left me with a good taste for formal essay writing.
3. Thesis statement: The next sentence is the thesis statement, and in this course I want it to always be the third step in your introduction paragraph and italicized (please don’t forget to italicize it!). Make it a simple and clear assertion. For example, it might be a statement like this: Writing has always been an easy skill for me, so when I began to write formal research papers in high school and now in college, I found it an easy process. Of course, if you have found the experience not an easy process, say that. This is just an example.
4. Preview step: The last sentence of your intro paragraph is called the preview step. It needs to be clear to the reader that you are giving them a “table of contents,” so to speak, of the main sections of your paper. Don’t use the word “will” in it; it should be written in the present tense. For example, it might read like this: In the first part of this essay, I review my childhood writing experiences, then the draconian writing teacher I had in high school, and finally the twenty years that have passed since when I have written no formal essays. In the second part of the paper I describe my experience with Microsoft Word, my experience using MLA formatting style, and my experience using documentation in research papers.
If you complete the steps above, you will have a single, well-rounded introduction paragraph. (Did you make each step its own paragraph? If so, you will lose points. It is to be four steps in ONE paragraph).
Write the body of your essay. After the introduction pargraph, craft the paragraphs of the main part of your essay. The paper should be written in paragraphs that have clear topic sentences. The first line of each paragraph should be indented (tabbed, not spaced) 1/2 inch. A paragraph should generally be between four and eight sentences in length.
In the first half of the body of your essay (after the introduction paragraph), describe your personal history and experience with formal writing. It should run two or three paragraphs in length.
In the second half of the body of your essay, describe and reflect on your level of experience and knowledge about exactly the following four areas of writing. It can be one longer paragraph (form the topic sentence so it covers all four topics), or each point below could form its own paragraph if each paragraph is at least four sentences long:
1. Your experience using online article databases (like EbscoHost) versus just googling to find information.
2. Your experience incorporating outside sources and quotes and then forming bibliographies (called Works Cited in MLA) of those sources at the end of your papers.
3. Your experience using a style manual like MLA (and other editorial formatting guides like APA) in papers you have written.
4. Your experience using in-text parenthetical citations to document your sources.
Start each paragraph with a topic sentence. Except for the first introduction paragraph of the paper, be sure to write in paragraphs with clear opening topic sentences that introduce what the main idea of the paragraph is about.
Quote from Cameron, Nairn, and Higgins one time. Somewhere in the essay where it flows naturally, you must quote word-for-word (with quotation marks around it ” “) one sentence from this article (no other article is allowed): “Demystifying Academic Writing: Reflections on Emotions, Know-How and Academic Identity” by Jenny Cameron, Karen Nairn, and Jane Higgins.
1. You must find this particular article in EbscoHost’s Academic Search Premier. To know how to access this database, read the instructions in the Formatting Checklist (near the end of it).
2. The quote must be author-centered. The Formatting Checklist tells you how to form an author-centered quote.
3. You must list the source in your Works Cited on its own page at the end of the essay. Let EbscoHost format the source for you (read how to let EbscoHost do this for you in the Formatting Checklist in your syllabus), but do check if it did it correctly by looking at examples of MLA sources here: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/ One thing EbscoHost won’t do is format it as a hanging indent, which it needs to be (again, the Formatting Checklist explains this for you)

This assessment must be completed by all students.

YOUR BRIEF
You have recently been appointed by the Dundee City Council who is seeking to develop a tram system of its own but they have concerns over the problems that Edinburgh had with their tram project. Your assignment is to write a report on the prospective Dundee tram system as a project – considering what is likely to go well and what not so well. Your report should therefore focus on the project management aspects including the key risks e.g. loss of money and overrunning its schedule and not meeting the performance requirements expected from an infrastructure project of this type.
Part A: Project Plan Presentation notes and slides
Part B: Main report
Part A (20%) involves preparing the presentation of your business case and project plan as detailed in the assignment brief below.
