This OER contains problem-based, teaching scenarios for instructors to use as they seek to develop the ability of students to critically think about employment, ethical, and legal situations that can occur in the workplace. As organizations seek to achieve their diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, difficult situations and conversations may occur between workers. Using teaching case methodology does not seek to provide answers but opens up questions and debates among students. Of course, legal statutes and mandates are indeed answers but there are challenges to mandates and statutes in the court systems.
