...in Bangladesh A Case Study of ‘Ha-Meem Group’ (Clothing Manufacturer) Introduction Compensation is the most important fuctions of human resource management. The present study aimed at exploring differences between the public and private sector industrial enterprises of Bangladesh with respect to overall status of compensation practices. Employee compensation is defined as the all forms of pay or rewards going to employees and arising from their employment. It is important both for employees and employers.

...After Ellen’s coming out episodes emerged, the LGBTQ community was no longer in the background and now “gays are witty sidekicks, girls next door, doctors and lawyers, city officials, and teenage experimenters, garnering Emmys, accolades, and great ratings as they invade the family home through the ubiquitous tube”(Skerski 365). Ellen helped transition the role of queers from witty supporters, to significant serious characters. She made “sexual orientation [be the only] important aspect of her life, not the sole purpose of it”(Gibson, Alexander, Meem 310). Media has come a long way in the 20th century but many still don’t agree with the way queers are portrayed through media. Although shows have changed, people are still not satisfied in the way queers are viewed. “Queer theory asks that we take very seriously the representation and construction of sex and sexuality in a wide variety of cultural venues”(Gibson, Alexander, Meem 258) . By putting more LGBTQ characters into media it “normalizes” who they truly are representing them with heteronormative themes. Shows such as Glee have come out with multiple LGBTQ characters. They have lesbians, gays, and a...

...Over 250 million children are taken to work in a sweatshop just so they can survive. Most clothes and items bought today are composed in China, Bangladesh, or Vietnam but they are not assebled in glorious workspaces- they are made in rooms half the size of a basketball court. “It was back-breaking, it was finger-numbing. It was particularly rage-inducing. Not because it was painfully hard work but because children like Meem hunched over hour after hour, squinted at the threads, cleaned one collar after another, one cuff after another, on arm piece after another until the piles were depleted,” (Aulakh). Raveena Aulakh went undercover as a worker in Bangladesh inside of a sweathsop and was trained under a nine-year-old girl, Meem. Meed spent twelve hours a day repeating the same process in a rom with no windows or even fire extinguishers, glad that the three fans on the ceiling did not stop or that her manager did not yell at her for humming too loudly. It is argued that child labor is cheaper tomore items and profit. This is wrong. Although Children do work in sweatshops, they are not the only ones. Adults, mostly women, work there also for a pay of $0.13 an hour, which is just in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is not the only counry low-paying sweatshops. The average worker in Vietnam is paid $0.26 an hour. Sweatshops...

...“thrashing” all aid the movement and feeling of this scene. Not only can the reader feel this scene unfolding, they can hear the hurling and the clawing and the beating. Both women are subject to the abuse dealt by their vicious husband and stand as one force against a greater evil. Hosseini’s choice to bisect the two women give power to each one individually, as well as strengthen the nature of the injustice by choosing to enjoin two stories which highlights the immutable society that is Afghanistan. Hosseini’s use of foreshadowing in each section connect the two main characters and mimics the despondent tone by dropping subtle hints as to their fates. Mariam's death is foreshadowed early on as, “Mariam signed her name- the meem, the reh, the ya, and the meem again- conscious of all the eyes on her hand. The next time Mariam signed her name to a document, twenty-seven years later, a mullah would again be present” (49). The image of Mariam signing away her life for the first time is seen again as Mariam ultimately signs her death sentence. Although the reader doesn’t know why a mullah will be present twenty-seven years later, it calls into question the turn of events that is Mariam’s life. Instead of just letting the plot play out, Hosseini engages the reader’s imagination as he foreshadows some of the heaviest scenes. The use of foreshadowing connects the characters and develops the tone of the novel as the insights into the plot are strengthened. Each time an event is foreshadowed...

...Retracing the Footsteps Mohita Nath Vice President of Administration, Executive Panel 2012-13 At times like this, when you are asked to recount stories from your own life, write about the memories you have lived and treasured, that is when you realize the woes of being an alumni. Because you desperately want to push the rewind button of time and relive those moments, but you can only hope. Well, no one said this was going to be easy. The best you can do, is living vicariously through the joy of your juniors, and watch them trace the steps that you once took. It all goes back to the day of the Farewell of HSC Batch '12. After the official announcement, the newly formed executive panel of year 2012-13 was practically beaming at each other, secretly making a promise of a great time that was to follow. Actually, everyone but Shorna. She was happily posing for photos when we literally had to beg her to join the team, when she decided to take mercy on us ... Because without her Graphics would have been meaningless. Alina, Nuzhat, Bushra, Parisa, Prianta, Samira, Tahsin, Shorna and I - the team was now officially complete. It was a good time that VELC gave us. Personally, I would say it was not just good, it was great. When you work in a team, it is not just work. You spend time with your team, you smile with them, you laugh with them and if you are lucky enough, you also cry buckets of happy tears with them and also on their shoulders. And in this scenario, I was very lucky....

...To treat carpal tunnel make some lifestyle changes such as taking breaks and abstaining from repetitive wrist actions for long periods of time. You can use a splint which will keep your wrist from moving while you sleep to lessen the pressure and get rid of the tingling feeling and help you sleep better. Medication can be taken to reduce swelling, however, if none of these work then surgery is a valid option. Women are more likely to develop CTS due to pregnancy. (Zelman, 2017)Tilburg University conducted a study that assessed symptoms of carpal tunnel during the third trimester of pregnancy and for 12 months postpartum. Between 1044 pregnant women, 34% reported CTS during pregnancy and 15% still reported symptoms at 12 months postpartum (Meems,2016). Tendonitis is an inflammation or irritation of a tendon, which is the thick cord that attaches bone to muscle. Tendonitis is caused by repetitive motions or a minor impact on a more serious injury. Straining the tendons, which can be done through incorrect posture or typing on a keyboard, will also cause tendonitis. It may also be caused by sports such as tennis, golf, and skiing (Middlesworth, 2015). Anyone can get tendonitis, but it is more common in adults due to the lack of elasticity in the tendons. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, tendonitis is the reason more than 70,000 people miss work each year (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2013). Symptoms of tendonitis include pain and swelling in the affected area, one...

...INVOCATIONS 1. Earn 1000 Good Deeds Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: "Is anyone of you incapable of earning one thousand Hasanah (rewards) a day?" Someone from the gathering asked, "How can anyone of us earn a thousand Hasanah?" Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: "Glorify Allah a hundred times by just saying ‘Subhanallah’ and a thousand good deeds will be written for you, or a thousand sins will be wiped away.” (Muslim 4:2073) 2. One Of The Rare Treasures Of Paradise Hazrat Abu Dharr (R. A.) narrated that Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: “Should I not tell you of one treasure of the unlimited treasures of Paradise?” I replied spontaneously, “Oh RasulAllah (Peace be upon him) that would be an honour indeed.” Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: “That rare treasure is ‘La Hawla Wa La Quwwata Illa Billah’.” (Ibn Majah) 3.
