Circular Economy’s Impact on Economic Growth “I take this opportunity to welcome each and everyone to this meetup. Circular Economy is a concept that businesses should embrace, as it is a sustainable way to ensure our Economy grows while reducing waste production, which is becoming a menace worldwide. Circular Economy basically involves keeping resources in use, while extracting the most of them. This means that we will be producing less waste, at the same time, saving on the cost of creating new products. Recycling raw materials is cheaper than the creation of new products totally from scratch. A good example is companies that use plastic for packaging their products. Plastic is very hazardous to the environment if badly disposed of. The cost of manufacturing plastic is also expensive than that of recycling. It will serve the environment greater value if these companies found ways to collect these containers and recycle them. This will greatly save on money, and at the same time, create jobs for the people who will work in the recycling industries. Plastic has affected aquatic life,…
God & Human Nature and Ethical Egoism Religious faith has served as a moral campus in the history of humanity. It guides human beings in choosing the right way to go. The belief that there is a superpower which keeps watching over man’s actions on earth and that he will demands accountability compels man to stick to the morals set out by the group of people that subscribe to that faith. For instance, the principle of reciprocity where one should do t others what he expects them to do to them is standard across the faiths. Those who subscribe to such faith, therefore, find themselves obliged to be morally upright as far as this principle is concerned. In America, religious leaders were among those on the forefront in advocating for equality between the blacks and the whites. This was based on the religious teachings that all are equal before God. It, therefore, influenced peoples respect for human rights (“Religion and Morality (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy),” 2019). Almost all religions are founded on love. It is on this premise that people…

Pharmaceutical Scientist Employment Contract An employment contract is a treaty which is usually enforced by law between two parties. In this instance, it is between the employee (scientist) and the employer (pharmaceutical company). There are critical aspects from a human resource perspective that must be inclusive in the employment contract; of utmost significance is that the deal lays out the responsibilities and rights of both the employee and the employer. Secondly, a contract for employment should include the wages or salary that the scientist will be entitled to (Baker, 2002). Contacts usually itemize the wage, commission, or salary that both entities were in agreement with. There should also be a well laid down policy touching on vacations, time off, and sick days for the ideal scientist. The contract has to have a confidentiality agreement between the scientist and the pharmaceutical organization, considering the nature and scope of work that is involved. Besides, a technology privacy policy should also be outlined to counter unhealthy competition from other outlets when a significant research breakthrough has been achieved (Baker, 2002).

Unhealthy company cultures negatively impact engagement, service, results and profits. Conversely, great workplaces have extremely healthy cultures (Kim, 2008).

Outline details One student asked about the details for the outline, and I thought some others might have similar questions. So I am answering here: Your outline should show how you plan to develop your paper. “For full credit, I am looking for specificity of research (1), research question and importance of research question (1), backgrounds (1), and methods for moving forward to pursue the question (1).” I say “specificity” because sometimes I receive assignments that have the vaguest of short phrases in the outline subtopics and details. Background means providing contexts for the topic and question – historical, political, philosophical. Methods – in your case, your research will be based on literature and documents you find to provide details that address your question. I have attached a sample outline to this announcement (the formatting isn’t perfect – the auto-formatting was just not working for me! I care less about that than being able to see that you are working from a logical course of reasoning with specific details) SAMPLE : Your outline should show how…
