We are working as consultants in an unethical cookie factory. They do not meet the safety requirements of OSHA. Employees do not change gloves or equipment in the allergy section leading to cross contamination with peanuts and eggs. Several bosses will fire people on the spot for minor infractions. One person was fired for taking the boss’ favorite coffee mug. There is horrible morale, high absenteeism, huge production delays, and many employees are constantly fighting with one another. In order to fix the culture and stay in business, we have been hired to help. Which external factors in HR (according to the book) may make it hard for us to make these changes. Make sure to include the scenario in your example.Which one do you think is most likely to influence us? Why?
