...Unit 3: Citizenship, Diversity and the Public Services P5 Policies and procedures with relation to Public Services: -Providing opportunities of equality and Anti-Discriminatory Policies and Procedures: such as Recruitment, Selection, Promotion and Training. Any ethnic minority, religion, sex, race etc. should not be discriminated through recruitment to join a Public Service role. This can be done through effective selection; this can be done through targeted selection where a public service will advertise through posters, newspaper articles/adverts etc. The Public Services such as the Army will mention “we are looking for this religion” e.g. Sikh to join the Front Line. To maintain equality within training, a Public Service will not breach any Anti-Discrimination policies, such as in the Police, all trainees to become constables, will be equal with no isolation towards religious or ethnic beliefs, on the basis of sex and all other Anti-Discrimination policies, all trainees will remain together, to feel equal and privacy. Personally I think this is an effective way to promote diversity, as members of the public and of the chosen religion will feel like useful individuals which have a specialist role. And the Police have to represent society e.g. can’t have all officers white British male when they live in the centre of Moss side which is predominately a wider range of other ethnic groups. https://www.gmcvo.org.uk/ethnic-population-greater-manchester-districts- Although it...

...r The ‘real’ reasons behind Corporate Social Responsibility Management Summary With this thesis I would like to contribute on the on-going CSR discussion. I attempt to investigate the real motives why multinational corporations engage in corporate social responsibility activities. The debate in CSR is nowadays still focused on the link between CSR and financial performance. Research lacks real proof of this link and corporations are failing in formulating a business case. So why is it that MNCs are willing to engage in CSR activities. In the following thesis I would like to give an answer on this question. Inhoudsopgave 1.

...Social Analysis Report Children Obesity Mengtong Huang Holly Lachapelle Jung Ohyeon Professor Fidaa Shehada Global Citizenship (GNED500204) Due date: December 3, 2015 Introduction of children abesity and connected with GNED 500(by Holly Lachapelle) The topic of our social analysis is child obesity. As far as we know, childhood obesity is becoming a growing epidemic in the modern world. According to Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, “The percentage of children aged 6–11 years in the United States who were obese increased from 7% in 1980 to nearly 18% in 2012. Similarly, the percentage of adolescents aged 12–19 years who were obese increased from 5% to nearly 21% over the same period.” (Ogden,2012) These numbers are concerning because childhood obesity leads to long term health risks including diabetes, heart disease and many cancers. As our society becomes increasingly technologically driven, our youth are becoming less and less physically active. Today’s children are more likely to send a friend a text rather than run over to their house and “call on them”. Modern conveniences and entertainment such as videogames, television, the internet, facebook and kid-friendly fast food joints play a major role in the growing rate of childhood obesity. Currently there are many efforts being made to slow down or reverse the negative effects of living in modern day society for our children. Some of these attempts include increased awareness about nutrition and...

...Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND This chapter presents the introduction, statement of the problem, significance and scope and delimitation of the study. Introduction Pitt, B. (2006) stated that by employing the intellegence of natural systems we can create industry, buildings, even regional plans that see nature and commerce not as mutually exclusive but mutually coexisting. Most of the time, business and environment were categorized differently. Often, business is for the economy and environment is the welfare of our Mother Earth where in fact it can work interconnectedly. Both can associate and benefit each other. Micro, small and medium enterprises are defined as any business activity engaged in industry, agri-business or services whether single proprietorship, cooperative, partnership or corporation whose total assets inclusive of those arising from loans but exclusive of the land on which the particular business entity’s office, plant and equipment are situated. (Department of Trade and Industry [DTI], 2007) They are mostly affected by the non plastic ordinance. It is very important on how these small and medium enterprises comply with the Provincial Ordinance No.2012-09 because their consumers are major actors and they can minimize or eliminate the use of short-lived applications of plastics. Bulacan PCEDO (2005) revealed that Bulacan is considered the Small Medium Enterprises (SME) Capital of Region 3 because 35% of small and medium enterprises in Central Luzon...

This paper begins by briefly summarizing the nature of organizational justice and by identifying how justice is perceived. Hofstede’s five factors of cultural dimension model, which he developed in his seminal 1980 research on national cultures, is utilized to present characteristics of cultural differences. Ten propositions are then offered which relate to organizational justice and differences in cultural perspectives. These propositions suggest specific management approaches that organizational leaders can adopt to be more effective in dealing with employees from respective cultures.

...From past to present; the changing focus of public health by Maria Joyce Key sections include: Environment, infectious disease, locating public health, the enlightenment, the Sanitarians, national provision of services, the inception of the National Health Service, ‘crisis in health’, The New Right, The Third Way, new public health. Public health, the new ideology may be taken to mean the promotion of healthy lifestyles linked to behaviour and individual responsibility supported by government action; whereas traditionally the description tended to relate more to sanitary reform and ‘healthy conditions’. The chronological development of public health is mapped out, supported by the outlining and discussion of the emerging themes and influences pertaining to the study of public health. The approach to public health is positioned alongside the health of the population and the prevailing political/societal influence at the time. Public health is impacted on by poverty and environmental factors. Presently government policy to improve public health is delivered in a strategy that recognises the need for health improvement at times when the greatest impact on health is poverty and exclusion. The evidence reviewed demonstrates clearly that poor health without appropriate resources or intervention is cumulative and that the ‘right’ form of intervention can bring about long term health gains. Intervention from a national agenda needs to include individual’s health and the...

Mitch Casselman Department of Management, Peter J. Tobin College of Business, St. John’s University, New York, New York, USA Abstract Purpose – This paper seeks to examine the ethical dilemmas that emerge when offering microfinance services in BOP markets. Design/methodology/approach – Utilizing the ethical lenses of deontology, teleology, virtue ethics and moral relativism, the paper builds on prior research on ethical issues in BOP markets and the ethics of microfinance to highlight the specific stakeholder impacts facing MFIs. Relevant literature and examples from practice are utilized to illustrate the different ethical perspectives. Findings – In general, many of the key dilemmas represent themselves in the extreme poverty segment of the BOP where commercial business models have the least traction. Research limitations/implications – Propositions are developed for the corrective actions in the paper which might allow future research to uncover differences in intervention success in different BOP markets. Practical implications – The discussion of potential interventions for the various stakeholders may ameliorate criticisms of MFIs, suggest opportunities for cross-sectoral partnerships and improve outreach to the poorest of the poor. Social implications – For each issue...
