Policies in Management Diversity at Denny’s - 996 Words

Policies in Management Diversity at Denny’s Denny’s Corporation is a franchisee-owned, full-service restaurant chain, which operates over 1,000 restaurants through out the world (Nichols, 2012). A major instances caused to Denny’s progressive enlargement in 1993 when two class-action lawsuits for discrimination where filed. The lawsuits were accusing Denny’s for repeated civil rights violations, primarily against African Americans (Mor Barak, 2011). Among many discriminatory acts, Denny’s has been accused of requesting only African Americans costumers to pay for meals first when the other customers pay after meals.

It is also important to not only to have clear guiding policy that indicates the commitment of the organization to provide equal employment opportunity for anyone who applied for a job but also endeavors to implement it. Adamson attempting to threaten to fire anyone who discriminated is a strategy on itself to implement his policy. However, there is sill more work to do, there is sill some discrimination lawsuits that Denny’s face.

In addition, Denny’s name is still associated with discrimination by the fact that Denny’s had only one African American franchisee and had no minority suppliers. However, that is not true now. They need to let the public know that Denny’s not only increased the number of minority employees, but also increased franchise owners to 120 and increased its purchased from minority-owned suppliers to $90Show MoreRelatedAnnual Repor t Fosters Beer64959 Words   |  260 PagesFrom the ChAirmAN ANd ChieF exeCutive oFFiCer 82 84 13 diSCoNtiNued operAtioNS 14 propertY, plANt ANd equipmeNt 08 09 10 the Next ChApter For CuB exeCutive mANAgemeNt CorporAte goverNANCe StAtemeNt 85 86 88 89 15 AgriCulturAl ASSetS 16 iNtANgiBle ASSetS 17 pAYABleS 18 FiNANCiAl riSk mANAgemeNt oBjeCtiveS ANd poliCieS 18 24 49 59 direCtorS’ report remuNerAtioN report group FiNANCiAl review Five YeAr SummArY 94 19 derivAtive FiNANCiAl iNStrumeNtS 96 Financial statements
