Unit VII Proposal Instructions

Unit VII Proposal Instructions

Informational Presentation

For this assignment, you will create an eight-slide PowerPoint presentation that introduces policies developed in Units III and IV. The policies developed were to reduce liability and enhance operations for fire and emergency service organizations. You will briefly address the purpose of the policies and answer any anticipated questions or concerns regarding discipline if the policies are not adhered to. You should also describe any potential litigation concerns that may occur because of the new policy/policies. Your time should be equally divided on the introduction of the policy and anticipated questions.

To help you anticipate one or two questions on discipline, think about what coffee table chatter would occur in your organization after a new policy is introduced if people do not agree with the policy. Think about fire and emergency service personnel receiving discipline, reassignment, or retraining of the individual employee whose actions contributed to the violation of the policy in your organization. Examples of litigation concerning discipline that has occurred in other fire and emergency service organizations can be found in the textbook, the library, and from the Internet in order to support your discussion. Include any image(s) that you would use. The presentation needs a title slide with your name, the date, and the title of your presentation, and a reference slide. The title and reference slides do not count toward the eight-slide requirement.
