Assignment
A few years ago, my CEO asked the senior team to look at “out of
the box” opportunities within each one of our portfolios to save
money. Human resources is generally not a revenue generating
department, and it was slightly over budget. I thought about
outsourcing our attendance management program to a third party. At
the time, there were many organizations whose primary role was to
manage an organization’s sick time. After all, managing sick time
is time-consuming, expensive, and oftentimes, frustrating for an
individual human resources department to deal with. After looking
into the idea further, and despite significant projected savings,
senior leadership decided not to proceed. Some of the main reason
why we decided not to go down this path was strong resistance from
our bargaining units and the perception of our staff having to deal
with a third party. Despite our decision our decision not to
proceed, many organizations have gotten out of the
attendance/disability management business and outsourced that
discipline to organizations that specialize in it.
MINI CASE STUDY INSTRUCTIONS
Using the internet or a personal experience, please provide a
current (within the past 5 years) example of outsourcing in
Ontario. What were the risks and benefits for the organization?
Review and reflect on the overall pros and cons of the outsourcing
decision in your scenario. Your written paper should be in Word,
Pages, or PDF format, at least one full page in length, but no more
than two (font size 10-12ppt), and with your full name and student
ID printed on the top of the first page. This mini case study is
worth 5% of your final grade.
