Employment practices

During World War II, African Americans were able to enter new industries, rise to skilled jobs and join unions, although they still remained at a disadvantage relative to whites. Some cities and states passed Fair Employment Practice (FEP)... 

According to Rossiter (1982), young white male scientists were seen as the salvation of the scientific enterprise in the 1920s and 1930s. She asserts that white women, African Americans, and Jewish scientists seeking industrial jobs were the victims of highly discriminatory employment practices. Rossiter contends that even when the advertisement did not include the phrase male Christians only it was common knowledge that only they need apply.

The HRM process is influenced by laws and regulations passed by local, state, and federal governments. These laws and regulations were put in place to protect workers from certain employer practices and biases. The Federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 is the primary piece of legislation affecting HRM practices (Donnelly, Gibson, and Ivancevich, 1995). The act and subse-... 

Now, how would that kind of training influence employment practices Let s start by taking a look at employment practices from an academic perspective, and then we ll look at industry and other sectors. One of the employment practices is the old-boy network. What happens typically in the hiring practice is, We have a chemistry position, let me call so-and-so, so-and-so, and so-and-so. This is an employment practice now in use. In this audience, I am now looking at what I hope will become the old-or young-girl network or the women s network. The other employment practice we discussed is the manila envelope, as often used by formal search committees in academia. They get the envelopes in and then they sort them into desirable and undesirable. ... 

Employment practices may include some discussion of employee needs, but typically there is minimal consideration of spousal accommodation. We have alluded to the question of dual careers, and this is often discussed. There can be a lot of spousal professional support. Typically in industry, when someone is being interviewed, everything possible will be done to make sure the portfolio includes the spouse by, for example, helping them find employment. 

In other institutions such as the national labs, our group noted the excellent employment practice of screening postdocs for their suitability as future staff. I know this is difficult in academia, because you typically have one slot, and you may not want to hire someone from an academic postdoctoral position to do the same organic chemistry as the mentor. But screening is something that might be useful. 

Contractors under a contract for services, like employees, can be sned for breach of contract where they are shown not to have taken reasonable care in their dnties. In practice, however, because of their limited recoverable resources, it is far more likely that they will be dismissed. The position of contractors as independent for the purpose of prosecution for neghgence is complex. Independence implies that the contractor worked outside employer management and employer practice. This is rarely the case and contractors are treated by the law as employees. 

It is commonly assumed that application of these methods in sensors has started from invention of oxygen Clark electrode,2 and in biosensors from first glucose biosensor.3 At present, main sensor application of amperometric and voltammetric detections include, with wide use of oxygen Clark electrode, amperometric sensors based on modification of working electrodes with various materials, and biosensors employing practically all biorecognition species. With the very wide use of the term sensors, applications of voltammetric detections include also miniaturized screen-printed devices for stripping determinations of, e.g., heavy metal ions. 

In the following account, Prof Porter s own words are employed practically throughout It has been considered sufficient for the present purpose to restrict ourselves to the case in which solvent alone is volatile The further case, where both solute and solvent are volatile, is given in Porter s second paper (loc cit) One point remains to be noted, namely, the emphasis which is laid in Porter s theory on the effect of hydrostatic pressure upon vapour pressure It is a well-known experimental fact that if we add, say, an inert gas to a vessel containing a liquid and its saturated vapour, the increase m pressure in the vessel due to the inert gas, causes an increase in the actual pressure (partial pressure) of the saturated vapour From the molecular standpoint one might regard the phenomenon as due to the increased number of... 

Avoid toys produced by global brands unless you are sure of their employment practices. 

If cases of the disea.se do appear, current social and economic conditions often favor the spread of an epidemic within health-care facilities. Therefore, health-care providers must be able to recognize a case of Ebola HF should one appear. They must also have the capability to perform diagnostic tests and be ready to employ practical viral hemorrhagic fever isolation precautions, or... 

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the National Safety Council (NSQ. While labor has been heavily underrepresented on the boards and committees of these organizations, they have served to bring more uniformity to employer practices. In some cases, voluntary standards have been promoted by insurance companies (Noble, 1986 Cheit, 1990). 

Examine fairness of employment practices Better understanding of trends and dimensions along which perceptions and experiences of fairness differ within organization (1) Enhanced managerial sensitivity about these differences (2) Probing deeper into factors that may account for differential perceptions Targeted efforts to address sources of differential experience...
