Viability of Project Management Standards
[ send me this essay ]
Product standardization has a double edge. On the one hand, standardization provides protection to consumers and allows products to be built and configured very quickly. This puts a company’s products on the market within months rather than years, offering a return on investment (ROI) within an extremely short time frame between conceptualization to sales. Any quick ROI today can indicate a successful, viable company because the world is the marketplace, not just a city, town or country, as in the past.

Violence in the Workplace: Incidence, Prevention and Response
[ send me this essay ]
This is an 8 page paper discussing violence in the workplace. Throughout the United States, it has been estimated that each week, there is on average 20 homicides which occur within the workplace and over 18,000 instances of nonfatal violence within the workplace. Obviously, with these high numbers, workplace violence and its prevention and response is very important in regards to management strategies. Some occupations are more at risk when it comes to workplace violence especially those which have a high contact with the public or deal with the exchange of money among other risk areas. Workplace violence prevention includes environmental strategies such as increasing the distance between potential offenders and the employees with the use of bullet-proof barriers among other things; improved or increased staffing during high risk tasks; administrative strategies which include clear anti-violence policies and employee assistance programs for employees who seek help; and behavioral strategies such as training sessions in which employees learn to cope with stressful situations. If workplace violence has occurred, employers must immediately initiate a response plan which includes a response team whose members are comprised with management representatives, securities officers, employee relation specialists, employee assistance program counselors and officials from the public affairs office among others.
