...In 2006, The Fluor Corp. completed the Fernald closure project 12 years early and $7.8 billion below estimates. The overwhelming success of the project earned the 2007 Project Management Institute’s (PMI) Project of the Year Award. (Project Management Institute, 2012) The objective of the project was the environmental cleanup and site closure of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fernald uranium production facility. The project was undertaken with the knowledge that government funding may not always be available, the public had a very poor perception of the project and current workers at the site would be laid off when the project was complete. One of the ethical issues that developed early came from reports in the local press about waste, fraud and abuse. The Department of Energy (DOE) had to report to the U.S. Congress to address these allegations. DOE has not exercised adequate management and oversight of the vitrification and uranyl projects or of the contractor’s safety and health activities. In addition, the contractor has not complied with some required procedures in maintaining its major performance and financial systems. As a result of these weaknesses, costs have increased, schedules have slipped, and safety and health risks exist. (United States General Accounting Office, 1997) After the report was published, DOE and Fluor changed the way they did business. The project became more successful because DOE took a less hands on role and Fluor stepped up to the challenge...

...Determine a key difference between a fee-for-service plan and a managed plan, and indicate the plan that you believe to be most advantageous for the majority of patients. Provide support for your rationale. Modern managed health care grew out of a desire to reform the traditional health care system, or the fee-for-service method of charging for health care. Under the fee-for-service method, doctors and hospitals got paid for each service they performed. There were no limits on their treatment decisions; doctors or hospitals could order as many tests as they felt necessary, for example. Doctors and hospitals made a lot of money under this system because they decided the prices charged for every visit. However, patients did not always benefit because their insurance companies would often only pay a percentage of the fees being charged.The different types of fee-for-service include indemnity plans and reimbursement plans. In an indemnity plan, the insurer sets an amount that it will pay for a specific medical service. In a reimbursement plan, the patient must pay all fees up front and then file claims to be reimbursed by the insurer. Fee-for-service health care is no longer widely in use. Most people today have some kind of menaged care insurance. There are many kinds of managed care organizations, but there are some common characteristics among them. All managed care organizations supervise the financing of medical care delivered to members. They all are concerned with cost-effectiveness...

...Indoor Pollution And Employee Health Tushama Cheris Okraku PRST 5040 – Human Resources Management Dr. Sharon D. Peters Middle Tennessee State University 12/2/12 Abstract Indoor Pollution and Employee Health The paper explores the effects that indoor pollution has on the health of employee from both an employee and employer perspective. It lists some of the issues that are experienced as a result of poor air quality. Environments in which air quality issues are commonly found are also discussed in studies that have been conducted. What causes poor air quality and how they affect employees are communicated to provide a blueprint for organizations to use to prevent such concerns from becoming issues to their employees. Also outlined are ways for organizations to recognize and reduce air quality issues to minimize organizational productivity loss and workers compensation claims that sometimes come as a result of poor air quality. Introduction Employee safety and health concerns have changed drastically over the past couple of decades. They have moved from the bodily injuries of industrial workers to the ergonomic challenges of office workers. These concerns can range from carpal tunnel syndrome to air quality issues. “One of the downsides of opting for environmentally “green” office buildings can produce illnesses such as itchy eyes and trouble breathing, a phenomenon some called “sick building syndrome” (Dessler, 2013; 553). This has caused issues such...

...Andrew Perez Kin 34 Mon, Wed; 9:45am-11:00am Environmental Wellness * We may not think much about Environmental Wellness as part of an overall wellness plan, but our environment and how we feel about it can have a huge impact on the way we feel overall.

Protecting yourself from environmental hazards and minimizing the negative impact of your behavior on the environment are also central elements. * One of the Army’s programs, environmental management system (EMS), is one part of the overall installation management systems that specifically addresses the potential risks to the environment from Army activities. * EMS is a tool that can help ensure that our Soldiers today — and the Soldiers of the future — have the land, water, and air resources that they need to train; a healthy environment in which to live; and the support of our local communities and the American people. * The Army's Overarching Vision for Environmental Cleanup communicates its commitment to cleaning up environmental contamination. * In April 2003, the Assistant Secretary of the Army, Installations and Environment, directed that environmental restoration and compliance-related cleanup be unified under a single Army Environmental Cleanup Strategy. * Army Environmental Cleanup...

...Emergency Preparedness The world has encountered multiple disasters throughout the past decade. The devastation from tsunamis, mudslides, hurricanes, tornadoes, flooding, wildfires, super storms, and terroristic attacks impacts the lives of millions, and the affects will be felt for generations. A "disaster is an event that causes a level of destruction, death, or injury that affects the abilities of the community to respond to the incident using available resources" (Nies & McEwen, 2011, p. 562). The state of Texas has experienced severe drought conditions for several years. Severe drought conditions place Texas at high risk for wildfires and flooding.

The worst wildfire in the state's history "broke out in Bastrop County on Sept. 4, a hot, dry, windy Sunday afternoon. Before firefighters got it contained, the Bastrop County Complex Fire covered some 34,000 acres, claimed two lives and destroyed more than 1,600 homes" (Fountain & Nottingham, 2011, n.p.). Extreme drought conditions placed professional and volunteer firefighters on high alert; as red flag warnings posted, and threats of dangerous fire conditions continued.

...Kayla Shelton Professor Lodge UNIV 200 14 April 2011 Ensuring Consumer Safety: Toward Redefining the U.S. Food and Drug Administration The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is an agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services. The FDA is responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the regulation and supervision of foods, medical devices, and prescription and over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs (medications). The FDA regulates and supervises medical devices and drugs throughout their development, manufacturing, process of approval, marketing, and post marketing stages. When a drug or medical device is granted approval by the FDA, it will shortly become marketed in the United States and available for public use. The FDA responsibility during this post marketing stage consists of ensuring product safety and efficacy through continued research and testing of the product. If the FDA discovers safety or efficacy problems with the medical device or drug, they are also responsible for removing the product off the market and informing the public of their findings. The FDA is a very powerful United States government agency, who plays a crucial role in American citizen’s health and well-being. Through their legal authority established by the United States government, the FDA is chiefly responsible for ensuring the American public’s health and safety in the foods we eat, to the medicines we take to cure a common cold, to the treatment choices...
