Answer 1

a. Planning is the vital and the back bone process of the HRM concepts. IT enables the manager or the HR to implement and forecast the process and procedures effectively. Planning enables a risk free project execution. Hence it can be justified that effective planning can make a manager effective and reach the objectives and goals effectively.

b. The Equal pay act has been enforced to make the payment and compensation equal to all employees with any racial or any other sort of discriminations. In the modern organizations it can be noticed that the payment for the women employees are lesser than the male employees despite being in the same job position. The enforcement of this HR law can make the women to receive the equal payment opportunity.

c. The operations of the HR can positively influence the whole operations of the organization. It can support the strategic formulations, equipping the organization with relevant and talented employees, making the employees competitive through providing training and development, making the work place through employee relations management etc. When the managers and the executives operates for the own goals, the HR operates for the organizational as well as for the departmental goals.

d. Even though the government has implemented and enforced many rules and regulations associated with ethics and ethical behaviors, the organizations has set forth many code of conduct in relation to the establishment of the ethical behaviour at work place. The HRM plays a vital role in the formulation and the enforcement of the ethical behaviour. They formulate ethical code of conduct and educate the employees about the relevance of the ethical behaviour at work place. They also hold the power and authority to take the disciplinary actions against the violations.
