Sense of fairness

Where possible, it would also be a good idea to offer alternative training and development options to non-mentored employees. This helps to reintroduce a sense of equity amongst those who might feel disenchanted with an organization s sense of fairness. 

The result of this century-old fragmentation of the subject is well illustrated when looking for information about Natural Products or Secondary Metabolism in current biochemistry textbooks. When the indices of 10 important current biochemistry textbooks were examined in 2000, none contained the words Secondary Product, Secondary Metabolism or Natural Product. While it is understandable that biochemists should concentrate on the few hundred chemicals that are commonly produced by most cells, a sense of fair play or balance would surely demand that some reference be made to the fact that most of the world s biochemical diversity resides in another type of metabolism. 

Bettering the condition of our farm workers shouldn t fall solely on the farmer , says Muller, a 25-year veteran of organic farming. Everyone in the food chain needs to adopt a sense of fairness and responsibility for the well-being of farm labourers. 

Equity. Supervisors should treat employees with a sense of fairness. 

What is bothered for many of us about the professional-notes option is our sense of fair play. Let s face it like it or not, school is, among other things, a place of competition, as students vie for the best academic records to send to prospective employers,... 

Some slowed their rates of work, some would not take the cucumber, and some would throw the cucumber out of the testing area in a dramatic show of disgust. In dogs, too, unfair rewards lead to uncooperative animals (Range et al., 2009). A similar sense of justice may be present in other species that have a developed social infrastructure, especially when it depends on cooperation. This implies that a sense of fairness may somehow be an artifact of evolution, that there has been a survival advantage to individuals who are fair in their dealings with others.

Franck s fairness has been criticized on a number of points one of them is being ethnocentric. Fairness is never objective and differs for those involved. One will always try to promote one s own sense of fairness. As this project limits itself to the European context, it focuses on a relatively homogeneous group. Also within Europe there is a great variety of approaches and traditions. However, in comparison to a global perspective, Europe is regarded as an area of similar ideas and values. 

Reduction of procurement cost is necessary but not sufficient for competitiveness. One needs to ensure that suppliers are doing their best in terms of innovation in products and processes, quality, on time delivery and, of course, price (refer to Chap. 4 on suppliers). As Toyota has shown, building close relationship with suppliers minimizes uncertainty in most transactions. The idea is to sense and eliminate problems in the supply line, before they happen. The way relationships are structured is a key to setting expectations. Good relationships depend on good communications, and a sense of fairness. As an example, Toyota has found a way to integrate different functions to form a supplier-partnering hierarchy (Liker and... 

Clearly cost of targeting is an important factor in the choice of a targeting method. While the market based mechanism is generally seen as an inexpensive option (because they avoid the need for direct screening of applicants for aid), the administrative systems - with their requirements of collection and analysis of data, assessment of potential recipients, and monitoring - can be expensive. However, the administrative system may be better suited for maintaining a sense of fairness in distribution. 

The sense of responsibility is strongly influenced by perceptions of the safety climate, which also affect the dimensions of upward communication and approaching others. Relations with superiors and other team members as well as the sense of fair treatment by the organization and superiors all affect whether team members are likely to raise their concerns regarding patient safety.
