It has come to my attention that not everyone understand the principles of verbal and nonverbal communication. There are many different uses for communication when you are with someone. When communicating with anyone you use language, body movement, face gestures, and you can use communication through technology. It is important to understand that when we are communicating with verbal communication this can involve a great deal of the spoken word.…
Along with your participation, I am predicting the Wellness Works program at Capella Banking Bureau to become a return of investment (ROI) and to grow from further being a money pit. “Obesity affects more than health care costs, it also has a significant impact on worker productivity because the more chronic medical conditions an employee has, the higher the probability of absenteeism or presenteeism” (CDC, 2011).…
Hi Pat, as for the issues of the discharges at the Anderson Cost Club, my thoughts are as follows. The GM at the Anderson Cost is incorrect in saying that we as a company can discharge employees without a reason. There must be a legal reason for the discharge. Now, there are exceptions to the employment at will doctrine. The exceptions are as follows: 1. Bad faith, malicious termination in violation of public policy, 2. Termination in breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. 3. Termination of an implied contract term 4. Violation of the promissory estoppel where the employee relied on the employers promise. There are other exceptions that are determined by the individual states concerning warnings issued by employers. If his reasons fall within the exceptions then the employee can lodge a claim for wrongful termination or discharge. Even though the Cost Club is non-union there are laws that we are governed by that were established to protect the employee. Pat, my suggestion is that we hold a conference call and speak with the GM to establish if he had any other reasons other than downsizing his workforce. We should question the GM on any other motives for discharge that he may or may not have had. After the conference call I suggest that we immediately contact our legal team. This is not to insinuate that we are guilty of anything. We should make sure that we cover ourselves and be ready for any legal fall out. Going forward I will make arrangements for some of our legal team to hold some workshops and trainings for our management employees on the guidelines and policies for the particular state that they reside and work in. This is just to ensure that our management team understands and is adhering to the laws that govern us.…

In efforts to resolve the issue , I also find it essential to have Jack and Ruth track the amount of time it takes them to complete their work on a daily basis. Monitoring the amount of work they complete within the hours that they work will allow me to determine and distribute the work load evenly between Jack and Ruth to ensure that all the work is being accomplished for the benefit of DMD Medical Supplies. Overtime hours will greatly decline if not even seize altogether. Lastly, we must implement mandatory timed breaks in order to eliminate the dilemma of employees taking longer, shorter, too few or too many breaks. I will make myself accountable to check on employees during their break times to ensure that they are giving themselves a break and for the proper amount of time. Through the implementation of these changes employees will be more organized, work ethic and quality will improve and reflect positively on the company as well as save the company money through the significant decreases on overtime hours and on less time being spent making corrections to work that was previously done…
I am writing you this memo in compliance with the mandatory mediation requirements issued by the court. I would first like to state to you my stance in this case. I have been dealing with this particular vendor for about six months now. The business relationship started after my wife and I visited Mrs. Doe’s Sunday school class in Huntsville, Alabama. I was there in support of my wife and to explore the Christian religion, but in small talk Mrs. Doe informed me of her family’s grape vineyard and the value of a certain natural product they produced. My natural herb store was in need of some new products for my customers so I agreed to try Mrs. Doe’s product in my store.…
Visiting a hospital can be a stressful and scary event for the patient and their family. Working in a hospital also can be stressful and induce fatigue in the healthcare workers charged with taking the stress out of their patients visit. Studies have shown that just as evidence-based medicine provides good patient outcome, research into evidence-based design is showing that the physical environment of hospitals has an impact on patient and staff outcomes (Ulrich, Quan, Zimring, Joseph, & Choudhary, 2004). The aim of the heart hospital’s renovation is in keeping with its value system and concern not just for good patient outcomes but also in quality health outcomes in their staff. The hospital has designed a gym and lounge area that will allow their staff to benefit from the stress relieving benefits of exercise and also to relax in the lounge on shift breaks and lunch. The author chose this facility because of its commitment to its patients and staff. The board has a 10-year strategic plan in place that seeks not just to increase the number of patients it serves, but to increase the number of long-term employees it has by making the facility a quality place to work (personal communication, M. Brown, August 14, 2008).…
