...C A R I B B E A N E X A M I N A T I O N S C O U N C I L REPORT ON CANDIDATES’ WORK IN THE CARIBBEAN SECONDARY EDUCATION CERTIFICATE® EXAMINATION MAY/JUNE 2013 RELIGIOUS EDUCATION GENERAL PROFICIENCY EXAMINATION Copyright © 2013 Caribbean Examinations Council St Michael, Barbados All rights reserved. -2GENERAL COMMENTS It is well worth remembering that the study of religion as an academic endeavour is intended to enable candidates to “develop an understanding of the meaning and purpose of life as advanced by different religious practices.” The academic enquiry into the phenomenon of religion must be differentiated from religious instruction, where the latter is intended to enable faith or proselytise individuals. Consequently, it must be made clear that persons engaging in the study of Religious Education should do so not merely for the promotion of their personal faith experience but should be willing to expand their knowledge and understanding of their own and different religions. Furthermore, it should be remembered that the study of religion is neither a pre-requisite nor requirement for specific training as a teacher or leader in the different religions presented in the syllabus. The examination for Religious Education for the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) is grounded in these understandings and the candidates sitting the examination should be aware of the focus of this academic discipline. The CSEC Religious Education examination consists...

Trade increases a country’s total output, and offers greater variety and lower prices to consumers. Nations restrict international trade to help their own economies and to protect their domestic companies from competition with foreign rivals. They do this by imposing taxes, surcharges, tariffs, quotas, embargoes, and sanctions on the goods of foreign companies. Groups of nations form trading blocs to protect their own trade interests (EU, ASEAN, NAFTA, and Mercosur). International business activities can include importing, exporting, licensing, franchising, strategic alliances, joint ventures, and foreign direct investment (FDI). Outline I. Fundamentals of International Trade Companies in different countries compete for customers with companies in other countries in our global marketplace...

...CHAPTER 27 EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION Only in recent decades have federal and state judicial decisions, administrative agency actions, and legislation restricted the ability of employers, as well as unions, to discriminate against workers on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, age, or handicap. This chapter concludes the discussion of the law relating to the employer-employee relationship by focusing on employment discrimination and related areas. The approach examines two spheres of this topic. First, the statutory framework for a number of federal laws is examined. Not surprisingly, the first statute addressed is Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. This statue covers discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex, and religion. Following the presentation of Title VII, the chapter discusses the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act. A discussion of the legal aspects of harassment concludes the chapter. A class of persons defined by one or more of these criteria is known as a protected class. Several federal statutes prohibit employment discrimination against members of protected classes. The most important is Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and its amendments. Title VII prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, or gender. Discrimination on the basis of age and disability are prohibited by the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967...

Introduction Small business social responsibility - whether it be a software engineer, automotive parts manufacturer, small accountants or delicatessen - offers an empirical context which is not a common starting point for business and society researchers. This is somewhat surprising given that small firms are an important part of the economic and social landscape, comprising over 95% of private business consistently around the globe (Wymenga, Spanikova, Barker,...
