1. The first potential issue I chose to explore is robots and if they belong in the workplace to
replace humans. The two sides of this argument is simply yes and no. The side that says
yes believes that having robots replace humans will increase productivity, due to no
breaks or anyone needing days off. There would also be no call outs or “no-call, no-

common human errors. This side also believes it would be. beneficial because without
any training or development needed, it would save time, resources, and money. Although
all these points may be true the other side of the argument also makes good points. As a
student who is majoring in human resources and aspiring to be a human resource
specialist and manager, I believe that having robots in the workplace should never be
allowed in most fields or careers. although some jobs will open in the robotics field due
to the high demand it will leave humans who do not specialize in this field without jobs
in a lot of cases. Besides the companies who are making these robots, it will eradicate all
of the human resources departments and a lot of other companies. Depending on the field,
like a customer service field, it will take away from the face-to-face and hands-on
experiences that humans enjoy and carry every single day. it will also cost more
especially in the beginning and if it fails it'll all be for nothing. On the moral side of
things, very valuable and teachable lessons will be taken away without training and
development.
2. The second potential issue I chose to explore, falls under employee training and he
should be paying for the training. On one side of the argument, you have people who
believe it should change and employees should be paying employers when it comes to
