Description

In the last decade, southern Minnesota has grown to be more ethnically and racially diverse. The purpose of this research project was to interview four major southern Minnesota employers, including Mayo Clinic and Taylor Corp, about their compliance strategies in meeting the requirements of Title VII, which prohibits discrimination in employment practices on basis of religion or national origin. A primary focus was to learn more about whether the businesses interviewed includes diversity training in their compliance strategy, what form training takes and the frequency of such training. In conclusion, I will be comparing and contrasting their compliance with diversity legislation and their approaches to employee training and other educational techniques.
