Risk Assessment & Management

UNIT IV PROJECT

Risk Assessment and Management

Prepare a consulting report using the Unit IV Project Report template (SEE ATTACHMENTS FOR TEMPLATE) which provides the following information:

1.) Part I: List and discuss the five steps to risk assessment and management.

2.) Part II: Conduct a before and after qualitative risk assessment to determine the risk level, based on the following information:

Spillage of product along the walkway of a conveyor belt in an area creates a significant slip and trip hazard, especially when it rains (as there are significant leaks in the product shed). This area is occupied on the average with three employees per shift, which must pass through this area at least twice a day. The most likely consequence could be a significant strain or sprain to the extremities including potential permanent lumbar injuries. One option to reduce or eliminate the risk is to barricade the area and provide a secondary path. The secondary path would require employees to travel to the upper level, across and back down to this level, thus creating an additional travel time of 10 minutes each way (twice per day). Explain your reasoning why you chose the severity and probability ratings.

3.) Part III: Using the same information in Part II, complete a before and after quantitative risk assessment using the Unit IV Project spreadsheet. (SEE ATTACHMENTS FOR SPREADSHEET)

4.) Part IV: In order to eliminate the condition of spillage along the conveyor belt identified in Part II and III, a permanent solution would be to replace the current 24” belt with a 48” belt. In order to do this, all of the rollers, framing, belt and guards must be replaced at a cost of $235,000. (Note: Some of this cost can be recovered by the prevention of lost product, but this does not factor into the cost justification process at this time.) Once completed, this project will reduce the risk by 42%. Using the William Fine method, calculate the risk score and J-value and determine:

whether the cost to correct a hazard is justified, and
how quickly the hazard should be corrected.

Your project should be a minimum three-page report using the above mentioned template. Ensure you show your equations and all work for determining answers for parts II through IV in the project document. You may either formulate the scenario equations using the Word equation formula toolbar or write out and solve your equations with answers on a separate paper. Then, take a screenshot of your work for each scenario using your phone or similar device and insert it as an image in the document. Make sure your image is clear and legible to read.

tourism and hospitality policy in Canada

Pick a topic that is relevant to tourism and hospitality policy in Canada. You should describe a real situation or place, identify the stakeholders and how they are affected, offer a critique of the current policy situation, and make recommendations on changes that the government could make to improve the situation.

Part 1: Outline of your paper

Each student will write a 2-page outline for their policy report (double spaced, Times New Roman 12). This can be in bullet point form, and should answer the following questions.

What is the broad policy topic you are interested in?
Why is it important? Why does it matter?
What specific example are you interested in researching? What do you know about this place/example? Why is it a good choice to study?
Who are the main stakeholders affected?
What are some questions or ideas you think you can address in your paper?

Part 2: Draft advocacy letter

The purpose is to encourage students to prepare for sending a letter to a political figure, and provide feedback and ideas to improve their letter.

Students must prepare a letter to send to a politician, civil servant, or similar, at a relevant organization to advocate for policy change. The expectation is that this is the same topic and issue as covered in the Final Report. The purpose of the letter is to persuade them to a point of view regarding a policy suggestion.

Once complete students should consider the feedback received, make changes to the letter, and email it to the person they have identified. Proof that the letter was sent will be required as an appendix in your final paper (see below).

The letter should be around 2 pages (3 max), double spaced, and should:

Be addressed to someone specific
Explain why they are receiving this letter
Identify how they are the right person to be contacting
E.g. “I am a student in policy class… I am sending you this letter because of your role/influence/involvement with…. I hope to persuade you/inform you about…”
Explain what the issue is
Explain why the issue is important
Explain what the current policy situation is, and why it needs improving
Explain your suggestion (to keep/remove/change/introduce policy etc.)
Explain what you think would happen if your idea was implemented, and why it will be beneficial
Back up your ideas with research and other examples, provide references and links
Use footnotes with hyperlinks to original sources (APA style not necessary)
Request a response

Employee payroll

A company pays its employees on a weekly basis. The company has three types of employees:

Salaried employees, who are paid a fixed weekly salary regardless of the number of hours worked;
Hourly employees, who are paid by the hour and receive overtime pay;
Commissioned employees whose pays are 20% of the week’s sales
Create a console-based object-oriented Java application that:
Calculates weekly pay for an employee. The application should display text that requests the user input the name of the employee, type of employee, and the monthly salary, or hourly rate, if it’s an hourly employee, and hours worked for the week.
For hourly employees, the rate will be doubled if it’s beyond 40 hours/week.
The application should then print out the name of the employee and the weekly pay amount. In the printout, display the dollar symbol ($) to the left of the weekly pay amount and format the weekly pay amount to display currency.
Implements a feature that allows the company to reward selected salaried employees by adding 10% to their salaries. Your program should display an asterisk (*) to the upper right of the weekly pay amount, and a note stating bonus added below the table, as shown below:
Name Class Hours. Sales Rate Weekly Pay
=====================================================
James Hogan. Salaried $3,300.00*
Jennifer Waltz Hourly 45 $10.95 $547.50
Moly Smit Hourly 32 $15.00 $480.00
Joan Han Salaried $2,600.00
Marry Butler Commissioned $10,000.00 $2,000.00
====================================================
TOTAL $8,927.50

*A 10% bonus is awarded

4. Relevant visual aids/graphics.

I can create the newsletter

International Marketing

Consider the ethical and moral issues underlying the decisions of an international marketer.
Should the manager follow the utilitarian, the rights, or the justice principle…or is there another model which you think should be invoked? Explain why you’ve chosen this approach.
This may require a bit of research.
Once you have defined the ethical concept that you think should dominate those decisions
explore, through research, three situations (for both) where a company has acted in that manner and three others where they violated that principle. Particularly, where the company has acted in an unethical manner, discuss whether they had a better, more ethical, option.

Tin Cup Dilemma

Review the clip from the movie Tin Cup and respond to the following questions:
What Ethics Code Standards and Principles (APA, ACA, and AASP) are relevant in the “Tin Cup” video clip and why (hint: remember there is almost always more than one standard or principle at play)?
What has she done right? What are some potential drawbacks to the actions she chose?
What steps could this practitioner have taken to avoid trouble?
What should the practitioner do moving forward? Why might those be the best ethical decisions?
According to the AASP, APA, and ACA ethics codes, would it be acceptable for this practitioner to pursue a romantic relationship with this client in the future?
According to your own moral compass, would it ever be acceptable? Does it make a difference if she is a licensed psychologist, a licensed counselor, or a CMPC?

Crosscultural Death- Research Project

In this course, we are considering the realities and perceptions of death from a cross-cultural perspective, and it is time to venture into the world “out there” where it all happens, including death: into our own culture. This is your field research focus for this course: the “out there”, and its articulation into a report, also as a “Signature Assignment” required by PCC. Our intention is to get an overview from interviewees towards some indications of how the USA views death today. This of course is an elaborate topic and we will shamelessly and simply reduce it by intention and design into one simple question, which gives us methodological consistency (reliability), an imperative for the research, and some interesting data. You are not expected to define death or expectations about death from this or produce a summary statistical statement, but simply to search out any themes and possible consistencies that may be present from your interactions and the resulting data from a selection of people, and to present them as a report. Accordingly:

1. INITIAL WORK: Select 8 people however you wish: one female, one male, or one other gender category in each of four age cohorts: 30-39 years old; 40-49; 50-59; and 60-69. These age categories are intentional: they are consistent and do not include young adults or those over 69, which gives us a set of individuals should be still substantially active in their public lives (working or not); this is the social aggregate we are using here. This exercise is also a field experience as much as a formal study, so select your interviewees as you will with attention to gender, ethnicity, education and social status: you can work out what is reasonable and balanced for you. This excludes, for example, using only one immediate member of family if the ages fit, since experiences there are directly shared and could condition their statements; keeping a sense of “operational randomness” – this is an application of what is termed “opportunistic” or “purposive” sampling in statistics and is not “grab and run”, it is guided selection and includes randomness. If you have someone who is 28-ish and a good interviewee, or similarly someone 70-ish, that’s acceptable.

2. INTERVIEWING: Having introduced yourself nicely and chatted a bit, (a) tell them you are doing a study for a college course, and (b) that you want to ask them a question. (c) Once you have have spoken with them a bit and have their agreement (a casual, discursive one; don’t be too formal; it’s a discussion), (d) ask each interviewee this question LITERALLY:

“In the USA, do you think views about death have changed over the past years?

ASK THIS QUESTION EXACTLY AS IT IS GIVEN HERE; DO NOT CHANGE IT. This provides the methodological consistency for our collective data. You can repeat it (you will probably have to, since it will surprise them) and be supportive but do NOT modify the question, and definitely do NOT answer or suggest answers; this is a ability you will pick up quickly; you are directing this. Give them some time, watch how they react, and note how they reply to the question. Record their replies in a succinct way. Death is not minor, and it is also a major avoidance and denial matter in the USA (as some choose to say now, “death is optional”), so your informants may react at first or they may get very interested; just stay with it. If there is no respond or reply after your effort, or they seem too reactive or confused, thank them politely, record the response and move on; we still have some very valuable data there in its own right, so keep your notes going.

3. PROCESSING: Write these results up (i.e., summarize your results for me) in a paper of no more than 4 OR 5 double-spaced pages. Have an introductory paragraph (in real life, it’s called an “Executive Summary”); Use any table, chart or grid your may wish (e.g., a “matrix” or box of 2 columns, with 4 rows for each of the four cohorts (age-groups), i.e., one column for Male and one for Female and 4 boxes for the age-categories is very effective). Be sure to provide an Appendix succinctly listing what you can about your interviewee backgrounds; this can be itemized as words and numbers,, not sentences or paragraphs; it tells us something about the sources of your data.

4. CONCLUSION: The conclusion of this write-up of your report should end with a paragraph that give a summary of any themes, patterns and recurring similarities (or the lack thereof) that you observed from your interactions and in your data overall. This is very important: in fact, it’s the essentially qualitative result from your essentially quantitative fieldwork. Overall, we do not need a long report elaborately footnoted; this is not that sort of assignment. You are doing it for the actual experience, yourself, me, in effect us and not the New York Times. we want it to be readable, interesting and succinct.

The challenge is to get their responses (you may find that once you get them going, it is hard to stop them) into a theme or themes from your data, since this is the core of the assignment. Notice the “themes”, to give you some stretch, not “I just can’t”: you can indeed get their response to the question and assess their sense of position on it; it’s a conversation about a specific question. I understand the complexity (hey, this is fieldwork). You can do this, others have, and it’s a better alternative than yet another Assignment paper (and N.B., with far more points). Also, it is very real and ever timely. We are not looking for overall statistical affirmation; but we do want themes and patterns, whatever they may be: that’s the gold.

Realize that in effect, you represent both yourself and PCC. Tell your interviewees that it is for an unusual course and a demanding anthropology prof, and be attentive, polite, and not pushy. IF it gets at all complicated, just be diplomatic, excuse yourself politely and firmly, and find another person. I could go on at great length but will not; do it, enjoy it (believe it or not), and write it up. You will learn much, and you will have done some real fieldwork and in your own way, become a specialist however limited the exercise. You could even add it, properly titled and formatted, to your resumé (everyone should have a resumé these days); it’s a bona-fide research paper!

Thesis: Shakespeare’s portrayal of women in his plays is a complex and multifaceted subject that reflects both the patriarchal norms of his time and his own innovative ideas about gender and identity, as seen through the depiction of female characters who challenge traditional gender roles and expectations, while also perpetuating negative stereotypes and limiting the agency of women. In this paper, I intend to examine the characters of Ophelia and Lady Macbeth as representatives of the two opposite ends of this spectrum.
Outline:
1. Introduction
Background information on Shakespeare’s plays and their portrayal of women
Brief overview of the different perspectives and debates surrounding this topic
Thesis statement
2. Historical and cultural context of Shakespeare’s time
Overview of gender roles and expectations in the Elizabethan era (keep as short as possible)
Analysis of how these norms influenced Shakespeare’s portrayal of women
3. Positive portrayal of women in Shakespeare’s plays
One example of female characters who challenge gender norms and expectations
how these characters reflect Shakespeare’s innovative ideas about gender and identity
4. Negative portrayal of women in Shakespeare’s plays
One example of female characters who are limited by traditional gender roles and stereotypes
how these characters reflect patriarchal norms of Shakespeare’s time
5. Ophelia as ultimate victim
Because of her passive obedience to Polonius’s request that she break up with Hamlet and her subsequent madness and death, Ophelia is often seen as one of Shakespeare’s most pathetic female characters.
Representative critical views of Ophelia
Recap of Ophelia as passive victim
Obedient to her father, as demanded by society
Passively taking Hamlet’s abuse during nunnery scene
Incapable of surviving either his death or her possible abandonment by Hamlet after he seduces her.
Her insanity as a sign of weakness
Her possible suicide as metaphor for lack of power over her life
Alternative reading of Ophelia
Shakespeare’s destruction of her can be viewed as a compassionate warning of the quandary young women found themselves in during the late medieval/Renaissance era.
The irony of her potential seduction in light of the fact that Laertes’s warning about Hamlet comes right before his departure to France, where he is likely to engage in some seducing of his own (Ophelia’s response to him is an early condemnation of the double standard.)
6. Lady Macbeth as both monster and victim
Lady MB as monster who exceeds the boundaries of womanhood and causes the downfall of not only her husband but her own and many others’.
Alternative reading of Lady MB as a protofeminist trapped by her sex and unable to act out her ambitions for herself.
7. Conclusion
Recap of the main points and arguments presented in the essay
Final thoughts on the significance of Shakespeare’s portrayal of women in his plays
Suggestions for future research and analysis.
