Resource:Developing Effective Social Media Policies
Solar Co. Inc., a solar panel manufacturing and installation company, has recently encountered several legal issues related to harassment allegations by employees, mistakenly classifying workers as independent contractors rather than employees, and internal disputes related to employees posting sensitive company information on their personal social media accounts outside of work.
To prevent these issues from happening in the future, Solar Co. is in the process of updating its employee handbook, and the CEO has asked you to draft several pieces of material for inclusion in the handbook with each piece containing at least 175 words. The information needed in the request is identified below:
· A policy that helps ensure workers are properly classified by including specific action items that will be required of employees and management.
· A policy related to employee use of social media such as guidelines related to appropriate content and identification of Solar Co. in any posts including specific action items that will be required of employees and management.

LAW ENFORCEMENT 2
Purposes of Law Enforcement
Police officers are the foot soldiers, and first line of defense to make sure the law is
enforced. They have four main responsibilities that they are hold accountable for. The main role,
in the eyes of the public, that law enforcement is characterized for is crime fighting by enforcing
laws. In addition, law enforcement must preserve the peace (by maintaining order), prevent
crimes (to a limited extent, with their presence in the community), and provide services (such
as traffic direction) to the American people (Gaines & Miller, 2017, p. 135). Part of law
enforcement involves using forensics during the investigation of a crime, which will assist
detectives in establishing the facts through obtaining evidence, and can aid in preventing these
investigations from becoming cold cases. Deoxyribonucleic acid, otherwise known as DNA, is
currently the gold standard that creates a connection between a crime scene and a suspect, and
can incriminate or exonerate an individual.
Detectives spend their time investigating crimes and collecting evidence from crime
scenes. That is their main focus (Gaines & Miller, 2017, p. 177). As seen in the video, detectives
conduct interviews with witnesses, victims, and suspects, and provide evidence for prosecution
(Career in Law Enforcement: Local and State, 2002). Detectives must be very good listeners, and
must know how to read between the lines and think outside the box (Career in Law Enforcement:

LAW ENFORCEMENT 2
Purposes of Law Enforcement
Police officers are the foot soldiers, and first line of defense to
make sure the law is
3. enforced. They have four main responsibilities that they are
hold accountable for. The main role,
in the eyes of the public, that law enforcement is characterized
for is crime fighting by enforcing
laws. In addition, law enforcement must preserve the peace (by
maintaining order), prevent
crimes (to a limited extent, with their presence in the
community), and provide services (such
as traffic direction) to the American people (Gaines & Miller,
2017, p. 135). Part of law
enforcement involves using forensics during the investigation of
a crime, which will assist
detectives in establishing the facts through obtaining evidence,
and can aid in preventing these
investigations from becoming cold cases. Deoxyribonucleic
acid, otherwise known as DNA, is
currently the gold standard that creates a connection between a
crime scene and a suspect, and
can incriminate or exonerate an individual.
Detectives spend their time investigating crimes and collecting
evidence from crime
scenes. That is their main focus (Gaines & Miller, 2017, p.
177). As seen in the video, detectives
conduct interviews with witnesses, victims, and suspects, and

(Career in Law Enforcement: Local and State, 2002). Detectives
must be very good listeners, and
must know how to read between the lines and think outside the
box (Career in Law Enforcement:
Local and State, 2002). Many individuals could be deceitful,
forcing detectives to remain
focused on the relevant information and to be as detailed as
possible to help solve crimes.
Forensics is the science used to analyze the evidence collected
from a crime scene that
aids investigators in putting the pieces together to solve a crime
(Gaines & Miller, 2017, p. 179).
There are many types of forensics used in the investigation of a
crime including ballistics,
forensic pathology and anthropology, and fingerprint collection
and analysis (Forensics:

technology, computer forensics has
gained popularity since information in a computer could remain
stored in a hard drive forever.
6. This computer data could be collected for forensic examination
when needed (Forensics:
Analyzing Evidence, 2012).
DNA is genetic material, unique to every individual, which
provides investigators with a
link between a crime scene and possible perpetrator(s) of a
crime (Gaines & Miller, 2017, p.
180). The video explains that there are DNA databases, like
CODIS, that keeps DNA
information in the system. This stored DNA can be compared to
known offenders and can
possibly provide a match to evidence that has been collected in
other cases (CODIS: A DNA
Database, 2013). In addition, the video illustrates how DNA
establishes vital information that
can link an individual to a crime. As it is unique to an
individual, DNA is often considered some
of the strongest evidence against an alleged suspect in a court of
law (Forensics: Analyzing
Evidence, 2012).
In conclusion, law enforcement has many levels, from local to
state to federal agencies.
Each level of law enforcement is in charge of ensuring that their
enforcement responsibilities are
7. being met and that they provide a safe environment for
communities (Gaines & Miller, 2017, p.
12). Using all the techniques, tools, and science available to
law enforcement, police, detectives,
and investigators are able to collect evidence that can make
prosecution possible. The videos
were useful in describing the different roles law enforcement
have and providing an overview of
the techniques that are used in forensics to process evidence
that is collected during the course of
criminal investigations. Law enforcement ultimately makes sure
that the law is enforced, and that
the individuals who do not abide by the rules and regulations
face consequences for their actions.

8. Notice that the student limited the use of direct quotes (or
content that was not in the student’s
own words). This ensures that the student’s similarity report
(or the similarity of the content to
other sources) from the plagiarism checker tool remains low.
Writing in your own words and
paraphrasing and/or summarizing what you read and/or hear in
this course is the best way to
minimize your similarity to other sources. You MUST cite all
sources with in-text citations for the
videos and your textbook (see the above paper for examples).
