My duties and responsibilities are to inform the managers about our role as a company, and inform them that we are oppose to unions for various reasons.

...European union and the Eurozone Yash Sohal This BBC article explains that under Tony Blair’s labour government, the toughest decision to be made was if the UK should join the European single currency.

...Students who are motivated to take early college classes and join PTK present their ability to delay gratification, build grit and growth mindset. Students are confident to joining PTK, which is inspired by their higher academic achieved peers. From a survey conducted by Jillian Panganiban, Brennan Buccat, Jaylynne Subia and Sharmaine Allas, studies show that “students who are determined to reach success and an increase of confidence after taking an early college class, display qualities of grit, delayed gratification, and growth mindset.” Now that students have experienced taking a college course, they are more likely to be comfortable with the early college program and the other affiliate programs offered. Furthermore, with this confidence, students are motivated to continue taking college courses, when reaching the twelve-credit requirement will give them the eligibility to be inducted into the PTK program. Knowing this, students are also motivated to achieve higher success displaying their ability to delay gratification...

...BSA 480 International Business B1-144 Workshop #3 November 10, 2011 European Union David McKeen Chris Deisher Twyla Dillard Brenda Rogers Flecia Williamson European Union 1 Introduction The precursor to the European Union was established after World War II in the late 1940s in an effort to unite the countries of Europe and end the period of wars between neighboring countries. These nations began to officially unite in 1949 with the Council of Europe. In 1950 the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community expanded the cooperation. The six nations involved in this initial treaty were Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands. Today these countries are referred to as the "founding members." During the 1950s, the Cold War, protests, and divisions between Eastern and Western Europe showed the need for further European unification. In order to do this, the Treaty of Rome was signed on March 25, 1957, thus creating the European Economic Community and allowing people and products to move throughout Europe. Throughout the decades additional countries joined the community. In order to further unify Europe, the Single European Act was signed in 1987 with the aim of eventually creating a "single market" for trade. Europe was further unified in 1989 with the elimination of the boundary between Eastern and Western Europe - the Berlin Wall. Throughout the 1990s, the "single market" idea allowed easier trade, more citizen...

...Labor Laws and Unions Marla Pardue HRM/531 February 11, 2013 Kathy Butler Labor Laws and Unions The profession of nursing has been around since 1866 in America. The profession began as one not so highly regarded in society. Initially prostitutes were hired as nurses. Then nursing developed into a handmaiden role where women who had joined a convent tended to the sick. No matter who assumed the role as a nurse, it was seen as a menial role in society. The nurses were at the mercy of the physicians. They were not seen as a valuable part of the medical community. Their primary purpose was to sit with the ill, bathe them and clean their linens when dirty. It wasn’t until nurses like Florence Nightingale started demanding respect for the profession of nursing that the field was recognized as one of importance. Florence Nightingale laid the groundwork for the profession of nursing. Eventually, nursing began to demand more respect in the medical community. Nursing degrees were more difficult to obtain and required high standards for admission into the schools of nursing. In approximately 1980, there began a shortage of nurses. This began for many reasons. Lack of nursing educators, long hours and the physical demand of the work are some of the most apparent reasons. Even though nursing had used collective bargaining for longer than 60 years, nursing unions did not really begin to surface until management refused to involve nurses in negotiations regarding nursing...

...Patents and Biotechnology The patent system: supposed to promote scientific progress and technological development by providing incentives for inventors, investors, and entrepreneurs. The government grants inventors a private right, i.e. ownership of the invention for 20* years, in exchange for a public good, i.e. their disclosure of information about their invention in the patent application. In theory, granting inventors a limited monopoly on their inventions provides them with an attractive alternative to trade secrecy and encourages the dissemination of scientific and technical information. *less for certain kinds of patents (e.g. new drugs) Bio-tech Terminology DNA is a double-stranded helix composed of complementary nucleic acid base-pairs: adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). DNA consists of sequences of nucleic acids, such as ACTTAGGAC. Proteins are composed of amino acids, which can fold to make complex structures (various tissues which form organs ,etc).… It takes three nucleic acid bases (or codon) to code for a single amino acid. A “gene” can be defined as the basic unit of heredity; it carries the information required to make one or more proteins. In human beings, genes include the base-pairs required to make a protein but not the regulatory sequences. Only a small percentage of human DNA, perhaps less than 5%, consists of genes. The human genome includes about 35,000 genes, which code for...

...Ethical Similarities and Differences David I Schuyler ETH/316 July 20, 2014 Leah Miller Comparing Ethics As we go through life, we have to ask ourselves whether the decisions we make are ethical or not? The answer to that question depends on an individual’s perception of ethics. According to Merriam-Webster, ethics are rules of behavior based on ideas about what is morally good or bad. To fully answer the question, one would have to consider the ethical values of the individual. Is the individual basing the decision on virtue ethics, utilitarianism, or a deontological standpoint? A review of these three standpoints would reveal one’s situational perception of ethics. The Ethic Similarities There are similarities within the three perspectives of virtue, utilitarianism, and deontological ethics. In virtue ethics, one would be making an ethical decision if a virtuous person would do the same under the same circumstance. “Virtue ethics is person rather than action based: it looks at the virtue or moral character of the person carrying out an action, rather than at ethical duties and rules, or the consequences...

...Labor Union at Lifeng Factory The employees at Lifeng factory would benefit immensely from joining a labor union because it would provide increased wages, benefits and job protection. Arthur describes labor unions as “organizations in which employees bond together to create a collective voice for negotiations with employers” (Arthur, n.d). A union serves as the negotiator between employees and employers which allows for a more speedy and efficient negotiation. A labor union would provide some amount of job security to the employees of the factory. These workers were not afforded sick days or vacation and feared taking a day off as this could result in termination. The workers at Lifeng were subjected to unpaid overtime, low wages, poor working conditions and zero benefits. A union would serve as a voice, therefore reducing the level of exploitation that they were experiencing. Employing the concept of collective bargaining in the Lifeng factory would be beneficial to both the employees and the employer. Collective bargaining refers to the method through which employees and employers negotiate in an effort to reach an amicable agreement to standardize working conditions. If collective bargaining was practiced within the Lifeng factory, the employees and Mr. Lam would have taken proactive measures to prevent the strike. However, Mr. Lam was not sensitive to his employees’ well-being and was more focused on meeting deadlines. He felt that he was treating them fairly which...

...was Sandy Michaels, I would proceed with the sponsorship of the Champions golf tournament at Dover Hill. The reason behind this is because Pace Sterling has been sponsoring the event for the past 12 years and by doing that they have reaped substantial benefits from being affiliated with the event. The Champions is one of the biggest golf tournaments around that draws in millions of spectators from all around the country so by sponsoring them, Pace Sterling has the benefit of getting their name out to the millions of people that would be watching the Champions golf tournament. That’s excellent for marketing. Pace Sterling is a private members club and they have been one since 1936 so what they do in their private club is completely up to them. If this was a public club and they were discriminating against women from joining then the Women’s Rights Organization could say something but it’s not it’s a private club. The Women’s Rights Organization has no right to infringe their constitutional right to free assembly. Pace Sterling also has “plenty of women customers and wanted even more but it reached them through other means including a variety of sports and cultural sponsorship”. Pace Sterling does reach out to women and they do it the way that they best see fit. If Pace Sterling does not sponsor the Champions they would get the Women’s Rights Organization off their back and save themselves from a public relations nightmare but then again the WRO...
